Chapter 2 Installation and Configuration

Logical Printers

Logical Printers can be used to create a "Virtual" printer. For example, to create a Landscape

printer, you could define a Logical Printer as follows:

Another logical printer could be used to print Unix-format text files for a DOS printer, by

converting Unix-style LF (Line Feeds) to DOS-style LF/CR (Line Feed, Carriage Return)

pairs.

IOPRINT+ Print Server models with 1 parallel port support 3 Logical Printers, otherwise they

support 8 Logical Printers. The names (L1..L8) cannot be changed. Each Logical Printer has

4 settings as shown below.
