LINCS Configuration

LAN Print Server TCP Port
This field identifies which TCP port the TCP print server will listen for TCP connections. The
TCP port is associated with a printer or group of printers by assigning its LAN Printer Server
Class to print device sessions in the Device Profile Assignment panel. When a TCP connection
is made on this port, the TCP print server will reserve the associated printer session (if it is
available). If a group of printer sessions have been assigned, then the first available printer
will be reserved. Data will then be printed as it is received.
The TCP Port field is required only for TCP print server types.
LAN Print Server Max Connections
The Max Connections for each line limits the total number of LPD connections that may exist
concurrently on each line. Any connection attempts exceeding this limit will be refused.
Note that the value for Max Connections is limited by LINCS maximum of 250 LAN
connections per line. This limit also includes the TCP Print servers configured. See the
Maximum Connections Table for additional information.
The Max Connections field toggles from 0 to 32 in increments of four.
The Max Connections field is valid only for the LPD server type. It is not valid for TCP
server types, because each TCP server may have only one client at a time.
Implied CR
By default, LPD does not send carriage returns at the end of lines. Some printers also require
a carriage return to cause the printer to return to the beginning of the next line (eject).
The Implied CR field allows you to customize the operation of the print on a per queue basis.
When enabled, a single linefeed character will be converted to a carriage return and a linefeed.
We suggest this option be enabled for coax printers that have LPD server sessions.
ASYNC printers may require enabling this option as well when printing text data. However
if control characters are embedded in the data stream that is directed to an ASYNC printer,
then the option should be disabled to prevent corruption of the data stream.
Form Feed
Two choices for Form Feed are offered by this option. A Form Feed after the print job is sent
is the default for this feature. The other choice is no Form Feed at all.
Profile Assignment
The Pro field allows you to assign an ASCII session profile to the print server class. In this
way you can assign MCS/NRC (8-bit/7-bit) Character set or primary/secondary language
to a print server.
