DLC/LLC Configuration
Overview
Certain TROY XCD external print server models support the DLC/
LLC protocol, a simple protocol that is supported on a wide range
of network operating systems (refer to chapter 1 for specific print
server protocol support information). DLC/LLC is included as a
standard part of Windows NT and Windows NT AS. It can be used
on other systems with the addition of vendor supplied software that
supports the Hewlett-Packard JetDirect card.
Important Note: The DLC protocol cannot be enabled on
more than one print server service, and is therefore limited to a
single port. By default, print jobs will go the first parallel port.
Because DLC is a non-routable protocol, there cannot be a
router between the print server and the sending computer.
Configuring DLC/LLC on Windows NT
To use DLC/LLC on Windows NT, you must first install the
DLC protocol:
1. Go to the NT Control Panel and double click on the
Network icon.
2. Click Add Software
3. On Windows NT 3.xx systems, select Add Software.
On Windows NT 4.xx systems, click on the Protocols
tab, and click Add.
