Printing from DCPS to the Colorwriter
This software is a component of the PATHWORKS for OpenVMS
(Macintosh) product (SPD 35.09.xx).
•
An Ethernet Controller Interface on the OpenVMS system.
•
The AppleTalk protocol enabled on the Colorwriter.
This protocol is enabled by default.
You can install just AppleTalk for OpenVMS network software from the
PATHWORKS for OpenVMS (Macintosh) product. See the installation
instructions in the PATHWORKS for OpenVMS (Macintosh) Server manual.
Configuring the DCPS queue
To configure the DCPS queue, you must know the following about your
Colorwriter and your AppleTalk network:
•
The name of the printer.
The default name is Colorwriter LSR, but it may have been changed to avoid
name collision if there is more than one Colorwriter on the AppleTalk network.
•
The name of the zone in which the Colorwriter is located.
This information is required if your AppleTalk network is divided into zones,
and if the zone in which your printer is located is different from the zone in
which the OpenVMS system is located.
For complete instructions on using DCPS, see the following:
•
DECprint Supervisor for OpenVMS Software Installation Guide
•
DECprint Supervisor for OpenVMS System Manager’s Guide
•
DECprint Supervisor for OpenVMS User’s Guide
•
DECprint Supervisor for OpenVMS Release Notes
In the examples that follow, note the format of P2, which supplies the
Interconnect type and address. When using DCPS, the correct AppleTalk
connection is the Direct connection (not Hold or Print), so the AppleTalk address
is the printer name followed by
_Direct
.
