Network Printing
Extended Systems, Intel, HP, and many others.You may have used them in the past to connect Laser
printers to your network.
Note: Consult your Network Administrator before adding or removing any device on your Network.
l The setup program installs the appropriate drivers onto your computer.
l A configuration utility allows you to search your network for print servers, and assign each of
them a unique IP Address and Name as well as other various settings.
l If you are going to use the Print Server with Print Manager/Spooling, when adding your Generic
Text printer, choose either Local Printer or My Computer. When you are prompted to choose a
port, you should see a choice that corresponds to the Print Server driver that you previously
installed.
l If you are going to use the Print Server with Windows Sockets (WOSA), Loftware Label Manager
requires two pieces of information: the IP Address and the Raw Port Address. In the Device
Connection dialog box, type in the IP Address of your print server and the Raw Port address of
the actual port on the print server where the printer is connected. The table below illustrates two
examples of Raw Port Addresses for two different manufacturers’ network print servers:
Extended Systems ExtendedNet
T1000
Raw Port
Address
Port 1 9100
Port 2 9101
Port 3 9102
Port 4 9103
Intel (3 port)
Port 1 3101
Port 2 3102
Port 3 2501
Note: The Raw Port address can be obtained from your Print Server documentation or manufacturer.
Enabling Shared Network Printing
Whenever you are printing to the same printer from 2 or more installations of Loftware Label Manager
or other applications, you must enable Shared Network Printing in the LLM Device Configuration
dialog box at each of the Loftware Label Manager design mode installations. If you select TCP/IP or Web
User in LLM Device Configuration, Shared Network Printing is automatically enabled. This ensures
that labels being sent from one client do not corrupt other client’s data. Formats and images are
downloaded to the printer each time a label request is made. Therefore, Shared Network Printing may be
considerably slower than other options.
