Communicating with the Courier
The methods of verifying communication with the Courier vary
depending on the operating system your computer uses.
Windows 95
DOS
Windows 3.x
OS/2
Windows NT
Linux
This chapter provides advice about how to get many popular
operating systems to communicate with the Courier. The last
section, Testing the Courier, explains how to verify that your
Courier and software are working together correctly.
Windows 95
The first time you start Windows 95 after you’ve installed the
Courier, Windows 95 will auto-detect the Courier.
Windows 95 has built-in support for Couriers, but since the
Courier has been updated since the release of Windows 95, you
need to supply Windows 95 with an updated INF file so it can
properly identify your Courier. The latest INF file is always
available from our BBS and our ftp site.
Getting the INF File
