Using FTP Directly: The Binary Configuration File (ima_config.bin)

29.3.

The Binary Configuration File (ima_config.bin)

The binary configuration file is located in the

CONFIG

library—

Config

(case-sensitive in G32). The file name is

ima_cfg.bin

.

You will only want to work directly with this configuration file if
you have made settings in one print server that you want to
transfer to another. Therefore, you must first retrieve the file
and save it on an accessible drive; then you can load the file
from this drive to the PDF directory of another print server. The
name of the drive and library you use could, for example, be
C:\PrintServerConfigs.

When a configuration file is retrieved, the settings activated on
the last reboot or start-up are copied. Changes made after a
reboot are not contained in the file.

In the example below, we will take the configurations from the
print server at 192.168.0.227 and transfer them to another print
server at 192.168.0.170.

To retrieve

1

Start an FTP session to the print server whose
configurations you want to transfer.

ftp 192.168.0.277

2

Change to the CONFIG library.

cd Config (case sensitive in

G32

)

3

Change to binary transfer mode.

binary

4

Retrieve the binary configuration file.
Syntax: get <source> <target>.

The file name in the <source> part of the command must
match the case of the file name in the FTP directory.
Example:

get ima_cfg.bin
c:\PrintServerConfigs\ima_cfg.bin

5

Terminate the FTP session.
