TROY Group EtherWind 802.11b - Manual (Page 42)

TCP/IP-based mail packages and dial-up Internet Service Providers. If you
do not know which method you are using, consult your system manager.
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. Start the PrintraNet installation program from the CD ROM and follow the
step-by-step instructions. You will need to know the following:
- The mail transport protocol: MAPI or WINSOCK
- The port name you wish to assign to the PrintraNet port (this port is used
to access the remote TROY print server): The name must start with
"PNET" and end with a number (for example, PNET3"). Note that each
remote EtherWind print server must have a unique port name associated
with it.
- E-Mail Address: Enter any unique legal Internet E-mail address for the
remote EtherWind print server (for example, [email protected]). Note:
Internet E-mail addresses cannot have spaces in them.
- Service Name: Enter the service name on the remote EtherWind print serv-
er that you wish to use for printing. This is normally XCD_xxxxxx_P1 for
the first parallel port, XCD_xxxxxx_S1 for the first serial port,
XCD_xxxxxx_P2 for the second parallel port, or XCD_xxxxxx_S2 for the
second serial port., where "xxxxxx" is the last six digits of the Ethernet
address (the exact service names can be found by running the print server
self-test). If you do not know the service name, you may leave this field
blank and the default binary service will be used.
- Your E-Mail Address (WINSOCK users only): enter your E-mail address
(for example, [email protected]).
- SMTP E-Mail Server (SMTP users only): Enter the IP address of your
SMTP E-mail server (consult your network administrator if you do not
know this address).
- Desired Notification: You may optionally have the remote EtherWind print
server notify you when the job is complete or when the job fails or both
when the job is complete and if it fails. Select the desired option and then
enter the E-mail address where you want the notification sent (generally you
would want the notification sent to your own E-mail address).
4. You must now create a printer on your Windows system using the standard
Windows printer setup procedure. To do this, go the Start button, select
Settings and then Printers . Select Add Printer to begin the printer installa-
tion and follow the instructions on the screen.
