Appendix A — SpecificationsPD41 and PD42 Commercial Printer User’s Guide 87USB InterfaceThe printer supports USB full speed v2.0 Host. To use the USB interface to print from a PC, you need to have the Intermec InterDriver printer driver installed on your PC. For help setting up USB communications, see “Connecting the Printer to a PC Through the USB Device Port” on page 24.The printer is a “self-powered device.” Intermec recommends that you only connect one printer to each USB port on the PC, either directly or through a hub. You can connect other devices, such as a keyboard or a mouse, to the same hub. If you need more than one USG printer to a host, you should use different USB ports.The USB cable that ships with the printer has a USB Type A connector on one end to connect to the PC and a USB Type B connector on the other end to connect to the printer. You do not need to configure communications for the USB port.USB Type A ConnectorUSB Type B Connector67 CTS Clear to send8RTS Request to send9Serial Cable Pins and Description (continued)Pin Signal Description

115DDAdvanced ConfigurationThis appendix contains information on the printer file system and how to modify the appearance of the printer web page.
Appendix D — Advanced Configuration116 PD41 and PD42 Commercial Printer User’s GuidePrinter File System (Fingerprint)As you access the printer for communications, you will encounter different parts of the printer file system. The following sections contain a device tree structure and brief descriptions of the different devices and directories of the file system.Device Tree StructureThis illustration shows the device tree structure of the printer.Devices and DirectoriesThe file system of the printer is case-sensitive. This fact is important because filenames in Fingerprint commands are translated into capital letters by default. Directories or files with lowercase names will be inaccessible for Fingerprint commands and programs.Depending on how you choose to navigate the file system on the printer, you will need to use different commands./ (root)cADMINboottmprompsdevcard1secureimages
Appendix D — Advanced ConfigurationPD41 and PD42 Commercial Printer User’s Guide 117•If you are accessing the printer through an FTP client or a web browser, you can easily navigate through the different devices and directories. Lowercase letters are not an issue for FTP or a web browser.•If you are accessing the printer through raw TCP (“net1:”), you use Fingerprint to communicate with the printer. Since Fingerprint commands are translated into uppercase letters, you are restricted from accessing devices and directories with lowercase names. For more information on using Fingerprint, refer to the Fingerprint Command Reference Manual./(root)The root node is write protected to preserve the device and file structure of the printer./c/c is the user file system. You can create directories here to store files such as programs, fonts, and images.ADMINThis directory is only accessible for the admin user. It contains start order, Fingerprint restrictions, and other configuration parameters only configurable for an admin.bootThis directory contains the firmware, password file, and other system information.card1This directory is the Compact Flash file system used to store large fonts, images and so on. You can also use this device to upgrade the firmware of the printer./devThis directory is where devices used for input/output, such as uart1, Flash, net1, parallel IEEE 1284, and so on are located. pffs:The power fail file system is used to store files that need to be saved at power down.

Appendix D — Advanced Configuration118 PD41 and PD42 Commercial Printer User’s Guide/romThis device is used to store a collection of files that are available as default in the printer, for example the default web pages, fonts, and images.imagesThis directory is used to store images used for the default web pages.secureThis directory is used to store the password protected web pages.tmp:This is the printer’s temporary read/write memory. It will lose its content when the power is turned off or at a power failure. Do not use “tmp:” to store valuable data. One advantage of using “tmp:” instead of “/c” to temporarily store data is that data can be written to SDRAM faster than to the flash memory.Customing the Printer Home PageThe easiest way to modify the appearance of the printer web page is to create an HTML file called “INDEX.HTM” on the device “/c” with custom designed logo and colors. From this file it is quite easy to link to the configuration pages of the printer. The web server generates these web pages with dynamic information on the fly. This process makes the real-time generated pages of the printer appear in the Intermec style. The colors and logo of the customer will be ignored. Web Style Guide FilesThe printer network cards are prepared for customization of the default web pages in a more permanent way by changing the configuration of the engine that generates the pages. While generating the pages, the web server accesses configuration parameters, like the background color, the name of logos to display on the page and generates the HTML code. Default configuration of these parameters makes the printer’s web page appear in the Intermec style, with corporate colors and logos. When changing the parameters, the web pages are permanently customized.
Appendix D — Advanced ConfigurationPD41 and PD42 Commercial Printer User’s Guide 119Customization of these parameters has to be done in specific files called “Web Style Guide Files”, assigning user-defined values to several support environment variables. Web style guide files contain parameters to set web page content and layout. These files can be stored either on /c or pffs:. In the file system, /c has priority over pffs:, which implies that if there is a web style guide on /c (for example /c/webstyleguide.0), the printer will not look for pffs:webstyleguide.1. We suggest that web style guides are stored on pffs: to minimize the risk that they are accidentally removed.Content of a Web Style Guide FileA Web Style Guide file has to contain a set of mandatory environment variables and it can also contain optional variables. All variables have to be lowercase, followed by a “=” sign and a consistent value. There is no specific order of the variables.Required Environment VariablesUse the reference table below to understand all of the required environment variables.Optional Environment VariablesThe optional environment variables are used to specify extra parameters; for instance, these variables permit to change the printer’s model name. The web server only recognizes the following model names:•PD41Understanding Required Environment VariablesVariable Descriptionbgco Background color, BGCOLOR attribute of BODY tag.coli Copyright link, link to html file showing Copyright notes.cona Company name.loat Logotype attributes, contains all attributes for the IMG-tag to replace the Intermec logo.trna Trade name.

Appendix D — Advanced ConfigurationPD41 and PD42 Commercial Printer User’s Guide 121x-www-url-Encoding Syntax RulesThe value given to environment variables has to be specified respecting the x-www-url-encoding syntax rules. According to the syntax rules, characters can be inserted using the notation %<ASCII Hex>. For example, space in the ASCII table has the Hex number 20 so it corresponds to %20. For example, “Intermec Technologies Corporation” corresponds to “Intermec%20Technologies%20Corporation” (it can also be written “Intermec+Technologies+Corporation”).Colors are specified according to the RGB syntax: %23cdcdcd corresponds to #cdcdcd.Any quotation marks (%22) must be preceded by a back slash (\). The file must contain only one line, where the different variables and valuers are separated by ampersand (&) characters.Memory and StorageWeb Style Guide files are designed to be placed on the printer’s pffs, as mentioned. Due to the memory limits of the pffs the environment variables have very short name (4 bytes), which may make them less user friendly to use, but this allows more space to be used for the value of the variable. There is also a size limit per file that is set to 256 bytes. In case the Web Style Guide File you want to create is bigger than 256 bytes, the content has to be split in more than one file.The parser daemon will start looking for the first Web Style Guide File which has to be named “webstyleguide.0”, then it will try to read the next file called “webstyleguide.1” and so on.Creating a Web Style Guide FileYou can create Web Style Guide Files with a standard text editor and then transfer them to the printer. Follow these rules when creating a Web Style Guide File:••The name has to be lowercase.••The first file has to have extension “.0”. The following files have to have sequential extension number if one number is missing in the sequence the parser will stop reading the files.
Appendix D — Advanced Configuration122 PD41 and PD42 Commercial Printer User’s Guide••The split point between one web style guide and the other cannot be in the middle of a line. The last line of the file has to be consistent in the syntax and the first line of the following web style guide file has to be a new line.••If variables are specified more than one time, the last value is the one assumed.Intermec recommends that you use the FTP server to transfer the files.Example (the default Web Style Guide): bgco=%23ffffff&loat=src%3d\%22/rom/images/itclogo1.gif\%22+align%3dbottom+alt%3d\%22Intermec_Technologies_Corporation\ %22+border%3d0 &cona=Intermec+Technologies+Corporation&coli=copyright.htmf&suli=support.htmf&suna=Support&suon=t&trna=EasyCoder
