AXIS Print Monitor is the recommended tool to use for network printing in
Windows 98 and Me environments. AXIS Print Monitor is available free of
charge on www.axis.com
AXIS Print Monitor allows the print server to be connected in the same simple
fashion as connecting a local printer. Once installed, it is automatically
initialized upon system startup. AXIS Print Monitor has been developed for
peer-to-peer printing, allowing your print jobs to be sent directly to the print
server.
AXIS Print Monitor supports printing over TCP/IP (LPR and Raw TCP) and
NetBIOS/NetBEUI. To enable printing in these environments, please ensure that
the desired printing protocols are running on your client.
The AXIS Print Monitor needs to be installed on each workstation to perform
peer-to-peer printing. Once installed, the AXIS Print Monitor allows you to
access all network printers, just as if they were connected directly to your
workstation.
AXIS Print Monitor needs only to be installed on one server to perform
client/server printing. The installed printers must be configured to be shared to
allow clients to use them. Pop-up messages should not be enabled on the
server as they will not be displayed on the client platforms.
AXIS Print Monitor can also be used for DOS printing. Please refer to the AXIS Print Monitor's
Readme file for instructions. The Readme file is located in the same folder where AXIS Print
Monitor is installed on your PC.
