attachment and prints it out on the printer. As a configurable
option, the remote print server can send an E-mail message back
to notify the sending PC that the job was successfully printed.

The remote print server must be running Version 3.38 or later
firmware. This firmware is available at no charge on the TROY
XCD web site (

http://www.troyxcd.com

directory).

PrintraNet is supported by all TROY XCD print servers except
the XConnect II Lite and XJet III.

A new feature of PrintraNet is its Address Book capability.
This capability allows the Windows user to have a pre-
defined list of remote printers. A print job can be sent to
any of these remote printers by simply clicking on the
appropriate address book entry. In addition, groups of
remote printers can be defined, so that a single print job can
be sent to multiple printers.

Another new feature of PrintraNet is direct E-mail printing.
This feature allows ordinary text E-mail messages to be
sent to the print server and then printed out on the printer.
No special software (other than an E-mail program) is
required on the sending computer.

This chapter covers the following topics:
