FTP
Embedded within the 10/100 Internal PS is an FTP server application that processes file
transfers from a host computer to the printer.
If the printer is on a network, label formats can be generated and data can be transferred
without setting up a print queue.
To send information to the printer in a Windows environment, try this exercise:
1. In Notepad, generate the following ZPL II code:
^XA
^FO100,100
^CF0,55^FDBrady Corporation^FS
^XZ
2. Save the file with the name: c:\test.txt.
3. Open the MS-DOS Command Prompt and type:
ftp <IP of 10/100 PS>
This opens a session with the FTP server.
4. Type your user name and press Enter .
5. Type:
put c:\test.txt
This transfers test.txt to the printer, and the printer generates a label.
6. To terminate the FTP session, type:
quit
Example • If the IP address of your 10/100 Internal PS device is 12.3.4.123 , you
would type:
ftp 12.3.4.123
Note • The default user name is blank .
