Network ConfigurationColorQube 8700/8900 Color Multifunction Printer 41System Administrator GuideRaw TCP/IP PrintingRaw TCP/IP is used to open a TCP socket-level connection over Port 9100, and stream a print-ready file tothe printer input buffer. It then closes the connection either after sensing an End Of Job character in thePDL or after expiration of a preset timeout value. Port 9100 does not require an LPR request from thecomputer or the use of an LPD running on the printer. Raw TCP/IP printing is selected in Windows as theStandard TCP/IP port.Configuring Raw TCP/IP Settings1. In CentreWare Internet Services, click Properties > Connectivity > Protocols.2. Click Raw TCP/IP Printing.3. Select Enabled to enable the protocol.4. Ensure that the TCP Port Number is set to 9100 for Port 1. If you want to emulate HP JetDirect EXPlus 3, set Port 2 to 9101 and Port 3 to 9102.5. Select Enabled for bidirectional communication.6. Set the Maximum Connections per port between 1–32 for each port. The default port value is 32.7. Set the End of Job Timeout to the desired number of seconds between 0–1800 before the job isprocessed with an End of Job character. The default time is 300 seconds.8. Select Enabled for PDL Switching to allow the printer to switch automatically between multiplesupported PDLs within a single job. PDL switching is normally disabled.9. Click Apply to save the new settings or Undo to retain the previous settings.Click Default All to reset settings to default values.Note: Enable TCP/IP before enabling Raw TCP/IP printing.Configuring Raw TCP/IP Advanced SettingsUse this page to set additional Raw TCP/IP Printing options for Ports 1, 2, and 3.To configure Advanced Settings:1. Under Connections, set the following: Set the Maximum Connections per port between 1–32. The default port value is 32. To allow concurrent jobs to process for each port connection, type a number between 0–500jobs in each port. Type 0 to allow unlimited concurrent jobs. To limit the number of jobs that are active for each port connection, type a number between0–32768. Type 0 to allow unlimited number of active jobs.2. Under Job Boundary Determination: Type the End of Job Timeout between 0–1800 seconds to specify the amount of time to passbefore a job processes with an End of Job character. The default time is 300 seconds. Type 0 todisable end of job detection by timeout.
