CrownNet Print Utility for Windows
Setting Up Serverless Printing
After you have used one of the procedures in the QMS CrownNet
Setup Guide
to install the print utility, your network printers will be
directly available from any Windows application.
You can do a quick check of the setup by choosing Print or Print
Setup from the File menu of any Windows application. If the Printer
field shows the
drive :\ directory \ port entry or Printer Name
on Ne
xx you created, you’re ready to begin printing directly to your
Crown printer’s resident print server. If the Printer field shows any-
thing else, such as
Printer Name on LPT x : [Local Port],
you’ll either need to reconfigure the Windows default printer or select
the CrownNet Windows port name within your printing application.
Setting Up Client-Server
(Server-Based) Printing
After choosing a Microsoft Windows Network server and installing
your CrownNet ports on the server, use the Print Manager’s Share
function to make the network printers available to other users
(Microsoft Windows Network clients). Your network printers will now
be available from any Windows application.
Notify Option
When enabled, the CrownNet notify option (from the Option menu
choose Notify) informs you when Windows has successfully com-
pleted the transfer (not printing) of your print job to the remote Crown-
net printer, Windows server, or Windows client (peer) station. If you
want to verify that your jobs have successfully printed, use CrownAd-
min’s Remote Console. This utility shows jobs in the printer’s queue
and a history of recently completed printed jobs.
