Note
Early versions of Warp Server have a bug in which the named pipes do not appear (the
problem does not affect Warp Connect or LAN Server). This problem is fixed via a patch
available from IBM.

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_TX

, 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.

3.

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

- 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
