Installing the Port Monitor
TROY provides a port monitor that installs directly on a Windows computer.
The port monitor acts like a local printer port, and therefore operates transparent-
ly with all Windows software.
Note: Although it is possible to install the print server as a network printer on
Windows systems, this procedure is not recommended because these operating sys-
tems do not adequately support queuing print jobs from multiple host computers
to a diskless print server. The queues may back up and therefore stop.
Follow the instructions on the screen to complete the installation. After the
EtherWind is configured, you will need to set up the network port to associate
with the printer driver. Follow these steps to configure the Port Monitor:
1. Enter a port name, which must begin with "NB" (for example NBTROY) or
accept the default NB1. Click OK.
2. Select Browse when asked for the Remote Print Server. Then choose the
desired workgroup (default for the EtherWind is WORKGROUP) and click
Next.
3. Choose the EtherWind from the list of available devices. The default is
XCD_xxxxxx, where "xxxxxx" are the last six digits of the Ethernet address (for
example, XCD_0B720A).
4. Choose the desired printer (service) from the list and click Finish. The default
service is BINARY_P1.
