LANPrint 1.0A (c) Copyright 1992, by Aleph Systems Thank you for trying LANPrint, a product of Aleph Systems. We hope you find LANPrint a convenient, easy way for your users to connect and disconnect network printers and to change their default Windows printer configurations. LANPrint consists of three files: LANPRINT.EXE, the executable program, LANPRINT.INI, the initialization file, and VBRUN100.DLL, the Visual Basic runtime library. We have chosen not to include that file with LANPrint because it would more than double the size of the zipfile, and it is readily available from many sources (in the CompuServe Microsoft Forums, for example, where it can be downloaded as VBRUN1.ZIP. If you need a copy of VBRUN100.DLL, please contact Aleph Systems at (301)270-4458, at CompuServe 71371,635 or via mail at 7319 Willow Avenue, Takoma Park, MD 20912. LANPrint should work with any network that works with Windows, including DEC PathWorks and NFS. The file VBRUN100.DLL should be placed in each user's Windows directory. The other two files, LANPRINT.EXE and LANPRINT.INI, should reside in a directory on the file server where all users have READ access. The file LANPRINT.INI contains the listing of available network printers, as well as a listing of the LPT Ports you want to allow users to connect to networked printers. LANPRINT.INI is an ASCII text file which can be edited with any text editor, including the Windows Notepad. Before testing LANPrint, you will need to modify the sample LANPRINT.INI to reflect the printers available in your network. Please be sure to read the documentation file, LANPRINT.WRI, included with the program, for the complete details of the configuration and operation of LANPrint--it's only a few pages long, and it will tell you all you need to know about LANPrint. The last page of LANPRINT.WRI is an order form. We hope you like LANPrint enough to license it for your file server (at $49 per file server, LANPrint is a truly low cost enhancement to the Windows environment, especially for less technical users who do not want to struggle with the network names of printers or the intricacies of the many Control Panel options for printers). We also hope you look for our other networked Windows program, N.A.I., Network Application Installer for Windows. Version 1.5 of N.A.I. has just been released, and includes a number of significant enhancements, including the use of user-specific data and a new user interface in the same style as LANPrint.
