CHAPTER 3 WINDOWS NT AND LAN SERVER NETWORK CONFIGURATION (TCP/IP)

3-13

-

Select Definitions

-

Select Aliases

-

Select Printers

-

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

- Exit the LAN Requester program.

4. 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:

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

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.

5. The Brother print server will appear as a standard OS/2 printer to

application programs. To make the print server operate transparently
with DOS programs, execute the following command on each
workstation:

NET USE LPT1: \\servername\alias

This will make the printer and the Brother print server appear to the
software as a printer that is directly connected to the parallel port of the
workstation.
