<h3 id="rzaluconfiglexlink">Configure Lexlink printers</h3>
<ol type="1">
<li>Ensure that you understand the following requirements and restrictions:
<ul>
<li>All ASCII Lexlink protocol LAN-attached printers must be attached to the IBM&reg; 4033
LAN adapter device or the MarkNet XLe device, or the printer must have a MarkNet
or MarkNet XL Internal Network Adapter (INA) card.</li>
<li>Only spooled files with device type attributes of *SCS, *USERASCII, or
*AFPDS are supported.</li>
<li>Direct printing (SPOOL parameter value = *NO on the CRTPRTF, CHGPRTF,
and OVRPRTF commands) is not allowed to ASCII Lexlink protocol LAN-attached
printers.</li>
<li>Printer sharing through the allow direct print (ALWDRTPRT) parameter on
the STRPRTWTR command is not supported. Printer sharing means having the
SPOOL parameter value = *NO on the CRTPRTF command and the ALWDRTPRT parameter
value = *YES on the STRPRTWTR command.</li>
<li>Only Token Ring or Ethernet communications lines (values in the Switched
Line List (SWTLINLST) parameter of the printer device description) are supported.</li>
<li>Error recovery will not be detailed.</li>
<li>Spooled files of type other than *SCS, *USERASCII, or *AFPDS that reach
an output queue associated with a ASCII Lexlink protocol LAN-attached printer
are held. A message indicating the spooled file is held is sent to the message
queue specified on the STRPRTWTR command.</li></ul></li>
<li>Use the <a href="../cl/crtdevprt.htm">CRTDEVPRT</a> CL command to create a printer
device description. From a character-based interface, type <tt class="xph">CRTDEVPRT</tt>.</li>
<li>On the Create Device Description (Printer) Display, press F9 to display
all parameters.</li>
<li>Specify the following values:
