Configuring DLC/LLC on Other Systems
To use DLC/LLC on other network systems, you will
generally need vendor supplied software. Typically such
software is designed to support the HP JetDirect print server.
Follow the vendor's instructions to install the DLC protocol
on your system.
Once the protocol is installed, you create a network port in a
manner similar to the Windows NT procedure described in
the previous sections. The Ethernet address of the print
server should automatically appear during the configuration
process.
The final step is to create a printer using the normal
operating system printer setup method. The only difference
is that instead of connecting the printer to the LPT1 parallel
port, you point it to the network port you just created.
Note: TROY XCD does not recommend using the DLC
protocol with Windows for Workgroups 3.11 in a peer-to-
peer configuration if the printer will be heavily used. This is
because jobs may be rejected due to print spooler timeouts.
