CHAPTER 2 TCP/IP PRINTING

2-10

You will get the Settings window. Enter the following:

LPD server The Brother print server name (from the HOSTS file) or

its IP address.

LPD printer For most applications, use the Brother print server 'binary'

service BINARY_P1. However, if you are printing text

files from the DOS or OS/2 command prompt, you should

use the text service TEXT_P1, which will add carriage

returns for proper formatting of the data (but will

potentially distort graphics printouts).

Host name The IP name of the OS/2 file server

User The IP address of the OS/2 file server

You may leave the other entries blank. Click on the OK button. The pipe should

be highlighted; if not click on it.

Click on the Create button to create the printer.

Open the LAN Services folder and execute the LAN Requester program:

1. Select Definitions

2. Select Aliases

3. Select Printers

4. Select Create. Enter the following:

Alias Should be same as the printer name

previously defined

Description Anything you want

Server name Name of OS/2 server

Spooler queue Name of printer as defined previously

Maximum number of users Leave blank unless you want to limit the

number of users

5. Exit the LAN Requester program.

6. You should now be able to print. To test the queue, type the following

from either the OS/2 command prompt or from a DOS workstation:

7. COPY C:\CONFIG.SYS \\servername\alias

8. Where servername is the name of the file server and alias is the alias

name that you specified during this configuration process. This should

print the CONFIG.SYS file on the printer. Note that if you selected a

binary service as the LPD printer name, the lines will be staggered; don't

worry about this because normal DOS, Windows, and OS/2 applications

will print OK.
