Printing
2. The name of the terminal server followed by a port
number. For example if the queue name is
server_name9 (or server_name09) then serial port 9 will
receive the print job. Please note that in this example,
the
Name field in the Port Setup Menu need not be set.
3. The printer name as set in the Name field of the Port
Setup Menu. More than one serial port may have the
same name allowing the server to create a hunt group of
printers. The first available port to match that queue
name will receive the print job.
A special feature of LPD with terminal servers is the ability to
do carriage-return and line feed mapping at the server. This
is accomplished by having a + appended to the client queue
name and is valid for all of the above methods of access.
Alternatively, you may enable the CR to CR LF mapping
option for the port.
Note: There is a maximum limit of 30 LPD connections per
server, which may be distributed to all of the available LPD
ports as required. If the maximum is exceeded then the
request is rejected and the connection is closed.
LPD printing from
DOS/Windows
®
At present it is possible to print from Windows ® or DOS although
this will normally be accomplished via a separate application
program like PC/TCP or Netmanage Chameleon. The new
versions of Windows
® type operating systems either have or
intended to have TCP/IP built into the operating system. Windows
NT
® has a built-in LPD utility, and there are shareware packages
on the Internet for Windows ® 95/98 (check our FTP site).
The documentation for each application or operating system
should allow users to configure and use it with IOLAN+.
The obvious advantage of using LPD to print is that the
server can be used to connect a printer that will be shared
between both DOS/Windows
® and Unix machines.
