Digi MIL-3000FTX Installing a Print Server in an NDS Environment, Select Notify List for Printer

4.2.2Using 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 -Susing PCONSOLE. To send data to parallel port 2/3 or serial port 2, create a queue name ending with -P2,-P3,or -S2, respectively.

a. Select Print Server Information and choose a print server. b. Select Print Server Configuration.

3.Select the printer description Defined elsewhere.

4.Press [esc] until the Print Server Configuration menu appears.
