What are my network connectivity
options based on when using a PSII?
It depends on your environment, but the print
server accepts print jobs in any of the following
ways:
• FTP — ZPL/EPL files can be sent to the printer
via a FTP client as standard ASCII files
• HTTP — (ZebraLink-enabled printers only)
Using the script option of the print server’s
homepage, you can type ZPL into a specified
location of the Web browser and send it to the
printer
• IPP — Using third-party IPP clients, print jobs
can be sent via the internet
• LPR/LPD — Sometimes referred to as queue
based printing. LPR/LPD is the standard in
network printing. Most TCP/IP operating
systems are compatible with this option
• Raw socket connection — You can connect to
the printer directly via the network, bypassing
everything in-between. This option is commonly
used to integrate ZPL/EPL into existing
programs, such as VB scripts
• POP3 — With proper configuration, you can
place ZPL/EPL files into the body of an email,
and it will print. The print server periodically
checks this email box at the specified intervals
and prints the body of the message.
