reassign this port using the change port command; for example change port
com1: = dcomx, where x is the DirectICA station number for which to reassign
the port.
Serial port operation does not depend on the status of the DirectICA station.
The serial port is available even if the DirectICA station is disabled.

The printer port and second COM port on Maxspeed MaxStations are system-
wide devices. All users logged on to that MetaFrame server can print to printers
connected to these ports. These printers can also be shared across a network. Just
like printer ports physically connected to a Windows NT server, only
administrators can add printers connected to Maxspeed MaxStation printer ports.
Serial and printer port support is manufacturer-dependent and not a function of the
DirectICA software. At present, only Maxspeed MaxStations support using these
ports with DirectICA for MetaFrame.
Printer port operation does not depend on the status of the DirectICA
station. The printer port is available even if the DirectICA station is disabled.
