Sharing the Card among Multiple Workstations

If two or more OS/2 Warp Connect and/or OS/2 Warp with LAN Server workstations will be printing to the Ethernet Card, use the Pipes method instead of the Redirect method and configure a unique port name for each workstation. For example, if one Ethernet Card will be used by three OS/2 Warp Connect workstations, the Card’s serial number is 10900416 and the workstations should be configured as PortA, PortB, and PortC (or any other unique port names).
