RPM IP Print Action

Actions • Text print • Raw print • Email • Archive to disk • Filter/program • Copy to queue • LPR print • IP print • Archive to FTP

What it does

Sends your print job to a print server using the IP protocol, also known as reverse telnet or direct socket.

Purpose

The IP print action supports sending your print jobs to a print server anywhere. Sometimes it is faster to use LPR or IP printing to send your print jobs to a high-capacity printer compared to Windows raw print.

RPM also manages this transfer end-to-end, which is something we can’t do for Windows print jobs once they reach the Windows spooler.

Setup

• Host Enter a hostname or IP address here for the system to send your print jobs to
• Port 9100 is the default port, but it is common to find any port in the 9100 to 9110 range used
