Developer Release Notes
BeOS Release 4.5

Bug Fixes and Improvements


Transport Layer

      The new transport layer architecture dramatically increases the number of printing configurations that are supported on the BeOS.  Currently, there are six transport types:
  • Parallel port (bidirectional, Intel only).
  • Serial port (bidirectional).
  • Appletalk.
  • Microsoft Network (experimental, client only).
  • USB (Intel only).
  • Print to File.

The table below shows the correspondence between drivers and transports for Intel and PPC:
