Roles of Port1 to Port3

In the socket server function of TCP/IP, either of the following connection methods can be used.

The ports to be used and their roles change depending on the connection method and communication protocol.

Two-port connection

•

If AEP mode is disabled (initial value)

Port1 is used for receiving print data, and Port2 is used for returning the product status.

Two-port connection is available when the communication protocol is STATUS4.

•

If AEP mode is enabled

Port1 and Port3 can be used for both receiving print data and returning the product status. Port2 cannot be used.

One-port connection

One port is used for both receiving print data and returning the product status.

When the communication protocol is STATUS4, Port3 is used.

When the communication protocol is STATUS3 or STATUS5, Port1 or Port3 is used.

•

AEP does not support STATUS3, STATUS4, or STATUS5.

The setting items are as follows:

[Port1]

Set the port number for Port1.

If AEP mode is disabled, and while in the two-port connection of STATUS4, this port is used for receiving print data. While in the one-port connection of STATUS3/STATUS5, this port is used for both receiving print data and returning the product status.

While in the two-port connection in AEP mode, this port can be used for both receiving print data and returning the product status.

The setting range is from 1 to 65535.

• Set different values for each port (1, 2, and 3).

• Set a port number not used by other services. If port numbers that overlap with those used by other services are used, communication cannot be performed properly.
