where "xxxxxx" is the last six digits of the Ethernet address (for example, XCD_009C53_P1). If the LN03 option is installed on an XConnect II (this is not applicable to the XConnect 100), the service names for the parallel port service ends in "LN" instead of "P1" (for example, XCD_033355_LN). Note that any of the services, not just the user-defined ones, can be modified to meet a user's particular requirements.

TROY XCD print servers provide the powerful capability to customize any of the services to meet specific user requirements through the use of setup and reset strings. Such strings are printer command sequences that are sent to the printer before or after the print job. For example, you could define one of the services to provide landscape mode printing by defining a setup string that contains the appropriate command to put the printer into landscape mode.

The print server provides several predefined strings for popular PCL, PostScript, and PJL (the Page Job Language used by new Hewlett-Packard and other printers) commands. These include (do a SHOW SERVER STRING command in the remote console to see the available strings):
