4.2.2 Using PCONSOLE to Install a Print Server
FastPort can be configured for printing without a config. file. This
eliminates the need for the directory
SYS:LOGIN\MILAN
, its configuration
files, and the ACT software.
1. Create a print server called FPXXXXXX with
PCONSOLE
(where
XXXXXX is the unit’s six digits Ethernet address).
2. Create a queue for FastPort using
PCONSOLE
.
3. Assign the queue created to the print server FPXXXXXX. and power
cycle FastPort.
4. To send data to the serial port instead of parallel (default), create a
queue name ending with
-S
using
PCONSOLE
. To send data to parallel
port 2/3 or serial port 2, create a queue name ending with
-P2
,
-P3,
or
-S2
, respectively.
