Troubleshooting

Windows Printing

Problem No. 1 When I tried to install the Printing software for Peer-to-Peer printing, I received an error message and the installation was aborted..

Solution No. 1 This may be caused by an existing installation of the printer port software. Before attempting another installation:

Remove the existing installation

Restart your PC

To remove an existing printer port installation:

5.Open Start - Settings - Control Panel - Add/Remove Programs

6.Look for an entry with a name like "Shared Port", "Shared Printer Port", " LevelOne Printer Server Driver" or " LevelOne Printer Server Port".

7.Select this item, click "Add/Remove", and confirm the deletion.

Problem No. 2 On Windows 95, I installed the Print Port Driver for Peer-to-Peer Printing, but when I selected a port on a LevelOne Printer Server and clicked "Add", the printer was not installed.

Solution No. 2 Try installing the Printer using the standard Windows tools, as follows:

1.Start the Add Printer Wizard.

2.Select Network Printer when prompted "How is the printer attached to your Computer?", and click Next.

3.When prompted for the Network Path or Queue, enter a dummy value such as shown below. (Do NOT select Yes for "Do you print for MS-DOS programs?")

4.The printer wizard will display a message stating that "The Network Printer is off-line". This is OK. Continue the Add Printer Wizard until finished.

5.Go to the Printers folder (Control Panel-Printers). The printer icon will be grayed out indicating the printer is not ready.

6.Right-click the Printer, and select Properties. Then select the Details tab, as shown below.
