MIL-3000FTX Series of FastPort Print Servers 4-3
4.2.2 Using PCONSOLE to Install a Print Server
FastPort can be configured for printing without a config. file. This
eliminates the need for the directory
SYS:LOGIN\MILAN , its configuration
files, and the ACT software.
1. Create a print server called FPXXXXXX with PCONSOLE (where
XXXXXX is the unit’s six digits Ethernet address).
2. Create a queue for FastPort using PCONSOLE .
3. Assign the queue created to the print server FPXXXXXX. and power
cycle FastPort.
4. To send data to the serial port instead of parallel (default), create a
queue name ending with -S using PCONSOLE . To send data to parallel
port 2/3 or serial port 2, create a queue name ending with -P2 , -P3, or
-S2 , respectively.
4.2.3 Adding Users to the Notify List with PCONSOLE
1. In PCONSOLE , select the following sequence of options:
a. Select Print Server Information and choose a print server.
