Step 1 Installing the Software on a
Windows 95/98/NT PC
To install the PrintraNet software on a Windows 95/98/NT
PC, execute the following steps:
1. Make sure that the PC is running an E-mail program (for
example, Microsoft Exchange) that is capable of sending
E-mail messages using either MAPI or WINSOCK.
MAPI (Messaging Applications Program Interface) is
used by most popular Windows 95/98/NT E-mail
packages, while WINSOCK is used by TCP/IP-based
mail packages.
2. Make sure that your E-mail server is capable of sending
messages across the Internet. Alternatively, if you are
communicating directly from the PC via a modem to an
Internet Service Provider, make sure that you have an
Internet mail account on the ISP, and that the PC is
configured to send E-mail using this account.
3. Make a backup copy of the PrintraNet software, and use
this backup for the installation process. Store the original
diskette in a safe place.
4. Insert the backup installation diskette into the PC. From
the Windows 95/98/NT Start button, select Run. Then
enter A:SETUP and press Enter to start the PrintraNet
installation program.
