Banyan VINES Network
Configuration
Overview
TROY XCD print servers that include the Banyan VINES IP protocol (refer to chapter 1 for specific protocol support information) allow printers to be shared on a Banyan VINES network. Users on client PCs send their jobs to any VINES file server running the Banyan PCPrint software, which in turn spools the jobs to the TROY XCD print server and the printer. Printing is transparent to user applications, and the print server can be managed using standard VINES utilities like MANAGE, MSERVICE, MUSER, and the Operator Console printer control. In addition, VINES users can print concurrently with users of NetWare, TCP/IP, and AppleTalk.
