Network Stations. For instructions on how to configure these printing scenarios, refer to the IBM
Network Station Manager Installation and Use manual. You can hook both serial and parallel printers
to your Network Station, and print from your ICA session using ASCII, PCL, and PostScript.
Look in the IBM Network Station Printing Guide redbook for additional information on printing with
your Network Station.
The queue names on the Network Station are always PARALLEL1 and SERIAL1 and you can send
ASCII, PCL, or PostScript datastreams.

Troubleshooting

Ensure that the Network Station recognizes the QuickOn for Running Windows flash card. In the
Setup Utility press
F2 = View Hardware Configuration
to determine if the Network Station recognizes a valid card. If the card is not recognized, power off
the Network Station and reseat the card. If it's still not recognized, check all of the NVRAM setup
information. You must use trailing slashes ("/") on the
entries. It also helps to clear NVRAM and re-enter the settings if you have made any
Directory
changes to the network or the server configuration.
If you see a light blue screen instead of the Windows NT logon screen the first time you start your
QuickOn Network Station, your keyboard setting may be wrong or your keyboard may not be
supported. If your keyboard works, you can check this through the Console diagnostics. The Console
is a Network Station application that provides access to other local clients and to diagnostic messages.
If your keyboard does not work, power off the Network Station and make sure that the keyboard
cable connection is tight. Power on your Network Station. If this does not help, read the problem
resolution information in your hardware documentation. If your keyboard works, you may need to
reconfigure your keyboard setting as indicated below.
The key combination to display or hide the Console window is Shift-Alt-Home. Check for the
message,
ICA00000: ICA Client failed to start. < Keyboard > is not currently supported.
< Keyboard > indicates which type of keyboard that you use. For example, if you have a German
keyboard, but the value in the < Keyboard > field says Traditional Chinese, you need to reconfigure
your keyboard setting.
From the Setup Utility screen press or enter the following to reconfigure your keyboard setting:
1.
F7
2.
F2
3. Use the arrow keys to select your keyboard.
4. Press
four times to save your selection and restart the Network Station.
