1.  In the CONFIG.SYS file, make sure the line "device=" appears
exactly as shown below for the appropriate server.

For a PC server:              device=com01a.sys /i:5
For a PS/2 server:      device=com02.sys /i:5
For a 3Com 3S/40x or 3S/50x:  device=com01s.sys /i:5
For an upgraded 3Server3:     device=com01b.sys /i:5

Note:  In the lines above, "5" is for interrupt 5.  If you are using a
different interrupt, change the number to the appropriate value.

2.  Edit the SETMODE.CMD file to include the following parameters
in ONE line:

c:\os2\mode.com com5:9600,e,8,1,to=off,xon=on,idsr=off,
odsr=off,octs=off,dtr=off,rts=off

Insert the appropriate values, such as baud rate and parity, for your
printer.

3.  Reboot the server.

4.  Create a sharename for the printer port.

5.  Give permission to the appropriate users for that printer.

6.  Do a NET USE LPT1 \\SERVERNAME\(SHARENAME).

7.  Print a sample file to confirm that the procedure has worked.
