Using the
TROY Port
Monitor
Connection Tab
Port monitor settings for the selected TROY Security Printing Solution and associated port will remain in effect
until changed by the user. If the administrator has set up user names and passwords, the user must enter a valid
user name and password before any port monitor security settings will affect the MICR print job initiated by that
user. For non-MICR print jobs, a user name and password is not required, and none of the TROY Port Monitor
security settings will affect the print job.
The Connection tab is used to select the type of
port (local or network) you are using to send print
data to the TROY printer.
TCP/IP – select this port if you are sending print
data from your computer to a TROY printer over a
public (Internet) or private (intranet) network. You
must specify a TCP/IP address and port number.
The TROY port monitor also supports UNC
(universal naming convention) paths.
File – select this port if you want to save your print
data in a file for archiving or for printing the job at
a later time.
LPT (1-4) – select this port (LPT1 through LPT4)
if you are sending print data from your computer to
a local printer connected directly to the parallel
port of your computer.
USB (Universal Serial Bus) – select this port if
you are sending print data from your computer to a
TROY printer connected to the USB port of your
computer.
