Network & Communication
Telnet
Telnet is used to communicate with the printer over the
network, for example sending status commands, configuring
the printer or printing labels by sending text files.
Example: How to connect from an NT Station
Open Telnet and select "remote system" from the connect
menu. Type the IP number of the printer and press OK. If
everything is correct Telnet will find the printer.
The Telnet port can also be used with the Communication API
(ComAPI), an Datamax programming tool, in order to make the
communication with the printer more straightforward. It contains
high level calls like SendLayout(), SendVariable(), PrintLabel()
etc.
To select a network port in the ComAPI, use the following
syntax:
"NETBOX:192.168.1.62#23"
•
NETBOX means a TCP connection
•
192.168.1.62 is the IP address of the printer
•
23 is the port number of Telnet
