Tips
7.2 Using LPD
Configuration
Hunt groups:
Hunt groups are supported on IOLAN+ for
printing. To use this, use the same number in
the Port Setup local port field (i.e. 1006).
IOLAN+ can be setup for receiving print jobs via LPD and
this is a very simple method. It works for both Windows
and Unix systems.

The following fields are important:
Flow control: Set your IOLAN+ port flow control to Hardware .
Then set your printer to use 'DTR Pacing' or
'Hardware' or 'Ready/Busy' flow control. Use
the RS-232 printer cable pinout shown in the
Cabling Guide (Appendix C), as this will save a
print job if the printer is turned off or the cable
becomes detached.
