Well, according to chapter 5 ("UNIX Printing using TCP/IP") in the PS-100
reference manual, this printerserver understands (amongst other) the LPD
protocol. The CUPS documentation have a description for LPD:
http://www.cups.org/doc-1.4/network.html#LPD
The PS-100 also supports DSI, sp you can use:
socket://*address*:4010
socket://*address*:4020
socket://*address*:4030

For the three logical printers it supports inthat mode.
