Windows 95 and
Windows 98:
PhaserPort Software
The Tektronix PhaserPort software is a port monitor that allows you to print
directly from Windows 95 and Windows 98 to a networked Tektronix printer via
TCP/IP. There is no need for third-party software or a third-party interface
attached to the parallel port. PhaserPort gives your printer increased
throughput without sacrificing connectivity.
TCP/IP configuration for the PC
If you don't already have a TCP/IP address configured for your PC, contact your
system administrator to ensure that the configuration is made according to your
company guidelines. If there is no TCP/IP network already in place, configure
your PC with a unique address such as 192.1.1.1.
To check the IP address for your PC, follow these steps:
1. From the Start menu, click Run.
2. Enter:
3. Click OK.
4. Choose your network adapter from the pulldown list.
5. The IP address is listed in the IP Address field.
For more information on installing and configuring TCP/IP in Windows
environments, see your Microsoft Windows documentation.
