Chapter 2 Installation and Configuration
Windows for Workgroups
The following procedure will install the Pserver program. This program is required on every
Windows for Workgroups system requiring access to the printer or printers attached to the
IOPRINT+ Print Server.
Pserver will transfer the print job through the network to the IOPRINT+ Print Server and then
to the printer. The process is as follows:
• A print queue is created for each port during configuration.
• When a user prints, the job is sent to Windows Print Manager.
• When Print Manager is finished spooling the print file, Pserver fetches the print job and
stores it in the appropriate queue, using a name generated by Pserver.
• Pserver sends the print job to the correct IOPRINT+ Print Server printer when the printer
is free.
Installation
1. Run the Setup program in the Driver\Ptp_wfw directory on the CD-ROM.
2. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation. It is not necessary to reboot
your system.
3. The Setup program will:
• Copy all program files to the installation directory.
• Copy Uninstall information files and UNINST16.EXE to the installation directory.
• Create a Program Group, Print Server, containing an icon for the Pserver program.
4. Because the Pserver program needs to be loaded to access the IOPRINT+ Print Server's
printers, it is recommended that you copy the Pserver icon to your Start Up group. It will
then be loaded every time you start Windows.
Note
Before printing, both Pserver and Window Control Panel must be configured.
