Parameter Options Description
Print server The print server the printer is assigned to. If
no print server is assigned, the field will say
“(None)”.
Printer number The logical number assigned to the printer
(0-254).
Printer status Indicates whether the printer is printing,
paused, stopped, or waiting for a job.
?Printer type Parallel, Serial, UNIX,
AppleTalk, Other/Unknown,
XNP, or AIO
You must select one of the listed types of
printers. When the “Other/Unknown” option
is used, the print server is provided with
information about the printer when you run
NPRINTER. This allows you to set up a
printing slot for a printer without specifying
which port the printer is attached to.
