Configuring DLC/LLC on Other Systems

To use DLC/LLC on other network systems, you will generally need vendor supplied software. Typically such software is designed to support the HP JetDirect print server. Follow the vendor's instructions to install the DLC protocol on your system.

Once the protocol is installed, you create a network port in a manner similar to the Windows NT procedure described in the previous sections. The Ethernet address of the print server should automatically appear during the configuration process.

The final step is to create a printer using the normal operating system printer setup method. The only difference is that instead of connecting the printer to the LPT1 parallel port, you point it to the network port you just created.

Note: TROY XCD does not recommend using the DLC protocol with Windows for Workgroups 3.11 in a peer-to- peer configuration if the printer will be heavily used. This is because jobs may be rejected due to print spooler timeouts.
