applications, and you may need to increase the values if you are unable to print). For example, if your queue is called myqueue and you wish to use LPT1 with a timeout of 5 seconds, you would enter:

capture l=1 q=myqueue ti=5

After the workstation is restarted, you will be able to print from applications programs as if the printer were directly connected to the LPT1 parallel port.

Testing the Print Queue

Test the queue by printing a small job from an application program like the Windows 95 Paint Accessory program (make sure that the program is set up to print to the correct print queue if the TROY XCD print server is not assigned to service the default queue). The file will be spooled to the TROY XCD print server for printing and should print on the printer within a short period of time. If it does not, double check your configuration, and if necessary, refer to the Troubleshooting chapter of this manual for additional information.

Changing the Print Server Configuration (Optional)

The TROY XCD print server default parameters can be changed via the XCONFIG utility to meet a wide variety of user needs. The procedure for doing this is described in detail in Appendix A of this manual.
