changed with the wrknets keyword in the [workstation] section of the
LANMAN.INI file. The protocol need not be the first protocol on the remote
workstation that is sending the job. For example, if NetBEUI is the first
protocol on the workstation sharing the printer, workstations sending jobs
must use NetBEUI as one of their protocols.
The workstation sending a print job must establish a network connection to
the LAN Manager Print Station host workstation. MS-DOS workstations
must be running LAN Manager 2.0 or later; OS/2 workstations must be
running LAN Manager 2.1a or later.
Loading LAN Manager Print Station on the Hoappears.st Workstation
To allow other users to send print jobs to your printer, you must load
LAN Manager Print Station as a terminate-and-stay-resident (TSR)
program, using the printsta command. If necessary, you can also unload the
program. LAN Manager Print Station must be loaded prior to the Windows
operating system. If you are using the AUTOEXEC.BAT file to load Print
Station and to start the Windows operating system, be sure the line to load
Print Station comes before the line that starts the Windows operating system
but after the line that starts the Workstation service.
To load LAN Manager Print Station
• Type printsta [ options ], where options are those listed in this command
reference.
To unload LAN Manager Print Station
• Type printsta /d.
For details, see the description of the /D option.
To Use LAN Manager Print Station from a Remote Workstation
You can connect to a LAN Manager Print Station printer as you would to
any other printer, using the computername as the servername and LPT as the
sharename. For example, to connect to the printer on the workstation
\\WILDWOOD, you would connect one of your logical LPT ports to
\\WILDWOOD\LPT.
