Port assignment – Windows 3.1

The LPT1 default assignment used by Elite XL driver may not be the
correct port for your needs. You may need to use another parallel port (e.g.
LPT2) because your PC’s LPT1 is being used by another device or you may
wish to use a serial port.

To change the port assignment:

1.

In the Printers window, select the

GCC Elite XL

printer driver in

the “Installed Printers” list box if it is not already selected.

2.

Click

Connect

.

The Connect window appears.

3.

Select the new printer port assignment in the

“Ports”

list box.

If the printer is connected to a parallel interface, select one of the
parallel ports (labeled LPT1, LPT2, etc.). If the printer is connected to
a serial interface, select one of the serial ports (labeled COM1, COM2,
etc.).
