NetParLpr is a Lpr compatible Client for the Amiga. With
it you can print to Unix Print servers, Network Ready printers,
TCP/IP Print Servers, and properly prepared Windows machines
(must have LPD service installed -- See docs for details.).
[ If upgrading from NetParLpr 2.0, see Changes below. ]
This Client offers:
* RFC-1179 Compatible. This is the BSD Line Printer
protocol. Don't let the term "Line Printer" fool
you, graphics prints are also handled in this
protocol.
* 68000 through 68060 support.
* Local Print Spooling. User selects where the
spooling directory is.
* Can be configured with the prt42_50.lha printer
device for easy use. With this setup, it is
very easy to change network printers just by
bouncing into preferences. (This is the
suggested installation method!)
* Also works with Turboprint.
* Multiple printer support.
* Users are informed of errors through extensive use
of the Amiga System Messages.
* Offline printing (Can print when network is down and
prints will be sent when network goes back online).
* Easy installation - Complete installer script.
* Easier removal - Installer script comes with a heavily
tested "Remove" option.
* 10 Testers worked out my bugs. See docs for information on
what networks and hardware has been printed to. If you can add
to this list, please write .....
* No Enforcer Hits...Not a feature, just something I'm proud of.
NOTE: This Client is NOT compatible with the Current NetPar Server or
the TestPar programs. I am working on the Server but decided to release
this client as a stand alone program for now. There seams to be a need for
the functionality this client provides. If you need to use this client and
also need to print to another Amiga, I would suggest that you use the
lpd.lha package by Juergen Schubert (on AmiNET) to replace the NetPar
Server. This client has been tested with the lpd.lha program...
Windows 3.x/95/98/NT succes has been reported. See the "Support Software"
section in the AmigaGuide docs for a listing of Servers that has been tested
with NetParLpr.
Finally a BIG CUDOS to an old Friend of mine, Rodney Myers. A former Amiga
owner with a justified hatred of Microsoft, lent to me the use of his 133 Mhz
Pentium Laptop, installed with RedHat Linux 4.2. Without this machine, I
would STILL be trying to find a Priveledged Socket error in my code.....

Changes: Aminet 2.2 Release
* Installation script would sometimes place a unprintable
character at the end of the PrinterHOST variable. This would
cause random errors on the server connection. NetParSpool will
now look for those characters an null them out.
* Added users hints, programs and comments to the documentation.
Found a larger listing of Windows LPD servers that work with
NetParLpr
Aminet 2.1 Release
* User selectable Class, Job, Query and Server Socket connection.
[ Note: After installation, run "Change Installed Settings" to
use some of these new features. See documentation for
details. ]
* Cleaned up memory Allocation. (No bug found, just a
precautionary measure).
