LANPrint 2.0 (c) Copyright 1992, by Aleph Systems Thank you for evaluating 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, and, of course, we hope you decide to license LANPrint. The LANPrint program consists of five files: LANPRINT.EXE (the executable program), LANPRINT.INI (the initialization file), PSETUP.DLL (the DLL written by Costas Kitsos which provides access to the Windows default printer setup screen), THREED.VBX (the library which provides many of LANPrint's 3-D screen effects), and VBRUN100.DLL (the Visual Basic runtime library). If VBRUN100.DLL is not included in the version of LANPrint which you are evaluating, it is available on CompuServe in the Microsoft Forums as VBRUN1.ZIP. This file is generally available, since it is necessary to run any application developed with Visual Basic. If you cannot find it, please contact Aleph Systems. Other important files included with LANPrint Release 2.0 are LANPRINT.WRI (the complete LANPrint documentation file), LANPRINT.TXT (this file), RELNOTES.TXT (differences from the last version), and ORDERFRM.WRI, the LANPrint order form. You are encouraged to pass LANPrint on to others for evaluation, but please be sure to include all these files when you do. LANPrint should work with any network that works with Windows, including DEC PathWorks and NFS. The files PSETUP.DLL, THREED.VBX, and VBRUN100.DLL should be placed in each user's Windows\System directory (recommended) or 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 included with the program, for the complete details of the configuration and operation of LANPrint--it's very brief, and it will tell you all you need to know about LANPrint. 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, WINSTALL (formerly called N.A.I.), the network application installer for Windows. Version 2.0 is about to be released, including a large number of major enhancements, including the use of environment variables, a complete network log feature, the ability to modify AUTOEXEC.BAT, CONFIG.SYS, and one other ASCII file, the ability to display custom messages before and/or after installation, and the ability to call another program at the completion of the installation and/or removal process. Thanks for trying LANPrint!
