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.
