what model machine ?????

Printing LPR to the iR Series
setting up an LPR port for the imageRUNNER-iR Series, do the following: 1. For the Name or address of server providing lpd put in the IP address of the imageRUNNER.
image1.jpg
2. You also need to specify a print queue for the Name of printer or print queue on that server. There are three print queues available (be sure to use only capital letters):
LP The machine prints according to its spool settings (normally use LP as a print queue).
SPOOL The machine prints only after spooling a print job on the hard disk regardless of its spool settings.
DIRECT The machine prints without spooling a print job on the hard disk regardless of its spool settings.




In Windows Vista, the LPQ and LPR commands are not available by default. These commands are part of Printer Services, but you must enable the LPR Port Monitor to use them.

1. Click the Start Menu.
2. Select 'Settings'.
3. Click on 'Control Panel'.
4. Double click on the 'Programs and Features' applet.
5.Click the 'Turn Windows features on or off' link.
6. Expand 'Print Services' and look for 'LPR Print Monitor'. Check the box for 'LPR Print Monitor' to enable it. Click OK.
7.Enabling the feature may take some time. Wait until the task has been completed.
8. Reboot the computer when prompted to.

did u change the port to LPR type ?

[lincolngp]

did u change the port to LPR type ?

No, i dont change de port.
I use this command: lpr -S 10.0.0.10 -P PDF -J TESTE.PDF "c:\teste.pdf", but i need define the duplex print mode.

I don't if there is an lpr command to enable duplex print, maybe u need to PS command inside the PDF document.

If u don't need to switch between single or double sided u can enable duplex in "printer settings"

[lincolngp]

So, i nedd switch, becouse exist various applications.
My work is Variable Data Print...

In equipaments Xerox do it.

which model Xerox are you trying to compare the 1135 to and which printing option do you have on the Canon?
If your xerox is older I can see that working the way you are describing. You can't really compare old technology to the new...
Also what version of windows are you trying to set this up on? That info will be needed as well.

[lincolngp]

Sorry, I did not want to compare equipment.
The model is Xerox E180.

Are u using VISTA ??

Try (from a command prompt): lpr -S 10.0.0.10 -P lp c:\teste.pdf -o DuplexNoTumble -o 1

It's case sensitive, and the "o"s are the letter "o", not "zero"

[lincolngp]

No, Windows XP.

I can print using the command:

lpr -S 10.0.0.10 -P PDF -J TESTE.PDF "c:\teste.pdf"

but must be printed in DUPLEX.

[lincolngp]

Try (from a command prompt): lpr -S 10.0.0.10 -P lp c:\teste.pdf -o DuplexNoTumble -o 1

It's case sensitive, and the "o"s are the letter "o", not "zero"

Not accept.

I am curious, just for my own education,,, why do you need to print to this device using a command string, as opposed to using the print driver??? Is this printing from linux or mainframe??

Thanks

[KenB]

OK, try this then: lpr 10.0.0.10 -P lp c:\teste.pdf -o DuplexNoTumble

The "o 1" switch sets binary mode; perhaps it's not needed with the duplex option set.

I just tried this with a Ricoh machine in my office (I'm at home now), and the job definitely did print, but I'm not there to see if duplex worked.

(Your Canon machine does have PostScript in it, yes?)
