About Printer Device Definition

DOS and Windows sessions can print either through Linux system spoolers or by directly attaching a physical printer.

Use this view of the Device Definition window to view or modify existing printer definitions. Depending on which type of printer token you have selected, the information displayed will either contain a Linux print spooler definition or a direct attached parallel port printer definition.

Obsolete

The current type shown is for a "direct attached parallel port". This type is not supported anymore. To work with device definitions for directly attaching parallel ports, use the "Custom" view instead of this "Printer" view.

For more information about the general subject of device definitions and managing them, see About Device Definition.
