drivers)

To configure the PC workstation so that DOS applications
can print transparently to the TROY XCD print server (you
may also use this procedure if you do not have Windows-
specific NetWare drivers), use the DOS editor to add a
command with the following format to the
AUTOEXEC.BAT file on your PC:

capture l=

n q=queuename ti=timeout

where n is the number of the parallel port you wish to
redirect, queuename is the name of the queue you created (if
you using NetWare 4.xx in NDS mode, you may specify

p=

directory context of the printer), and timeout is a the number
of seconds the file server will send data to the printer after
the application last writes to a file (use at least 5 seconds for
DOS applications and at least 50 seconds for Windows
