FTP Client

In FTP Client, you can specify the network settings, security settings, and so on by accessing the FTP server of the printer using Command Prompt.
<Features of FTP Client>
No specific software is needed.
You can operate the FTP Client using the Command Prompt supplied with Windows. You do not need specific software to operate the FTP Client.
You can specify the network settings at a time.
Because the setting items are listed in a file, you can specify multiple items all at once.
To manage the printer using FTP Client, perform the following procedure.
