About AXIS Print Utility for OS/2
AXIS Print Utility for OS/2 is an application for network printing
in the OS/2 environment. Its allows you to:
• Install and maintain the EasyLAN 100i printer ports as OS/2
printer ports.
• Capture and monitor print jobs directed to the EasyLAN 100i
ports.
Print jobs are directed through a spool directory located on your
local hard disk (peer-to-peer mode), or on the file server (client-
server mode). The printer port status of your EasyLAN 100i can be
monitored and pop-up notification messages can be generated, keep-
ing you informed of completed print jobs or any problem condi-
tion.
Notes:
- The NetBEUI protocol must be active. If not, use MPTS/LAPS
(LAN Server) or SETUP (LAN Manager) to activate it.
- If you are using OS/2 version 2.x and wish to print through
TCP/IP, we recommend that you use the IBM TCP/IP for OS/2
product. It supports the LPD and interactive FTP print meth-
ods.
