The Printer Tab - Logical Port

The Logical Printers tab contains the logical printer settings of the PrintServer. Configure them for each Logical Printer. (See Figure 6-10.)

The PrintServer has six logical or virtual printer ports. For example, you can have three different configurations for your parallel printer: Logical Printer 1 for landscape orientation, Logical Printer 2 for double-sided copies, and Logical Printer 3 for manual feed. Then you will map Logical Printers 1, 2, and 3 to the physical printer on the PrintServer’s Parallel port.

Select Printer. From the Logical Printer Port No: drop-down menu, select the number (1-6) of the printer you wish to configure. From the Port drop-down menu, select the PrintServer’s physical port, Parallel 1 or USB 1. Click the Get Data button to update the display with the current data for the selected logical printer.
