5. Select

Local Printer

or

My Computer

(not

Network Printer

) when you are

asked how the printer is connected to your computer.

6. You will also need to know the following

- The manufacturer and model of the printer at the remote site (for example,

Hewlett-Packard LaserJet 5). In some cases, you will need to provide a disk
with the appropriate printer driver.

- The name of the PrintraNet port that you defined for the remote

EtherWind print server in step 3 (PNET1 by default).

7. With PrintraNet 2.0, you can also:

- Click on the Address Book button to configure other remote destinations.

This capability lets you send print jobs to more than one destination with-
out having to create a separate printer for each destination.

- Select the partial E-mail printing option to break up the print job into sev-

eral small E-mail messages. This allows PrintraNet to work with mail
servers that restrict the size of incoming E-mail messages.

8. Select

No

when asked if you want to print a test page, unless you have already

configured the remote EtherWind print server to receive PrintraNet print jobs.

You have now finished installing the PrintraNet software. If you have only one E-
mail printer, go to Step 2, Configuring the Remote EtherWInd Print Server.

Adding a Second PrintraNet Destination

You should not re-run the install program to add a new E-Mail printer port.
Instead, press the Start button, select Settings, and open the Printers window.
Click on the icon of a PrintraNet printer, select

File

from the menu bar, and then

choose

Properties

. Click on the

Details

tab (or

Port

s tab) and push the

Add

Port

button.

In the

Add Port

dialog, select the

Other

radio button and then "PrintraNet

Port". Click on

OK

and it will give you the Port Name dialog (like in the install

program). Any unique name can be given here as long as it starts with "PNET"
and another port does not already exist with the same name. Then enter the port
settings as described in step 3 of the Installing the Software on a Windows PC at the
Local Site
section.
