Introduction
TROY external print servers allow multiple host computers to share virtually any type of printer or plotter on a
high-speed local area network (LAN). The PocketPro 100S is a compact low-cost Ethernet print server designed
to connect a printer with a parallel port to an Ethernet (10baseT) or Fast Ethernet (100baseT) network.
You can print jobs on a printer or plotter connected to a TROY external print server as if the printer or plotter
were attached directly to your computer. No special software is required on the host computers, and application
programs run without any modification. Because the TROY PocketPro 100S provides multiprotocol capabilities,
users on UNIX, Novell, AppleTalk, LAN Server, Windows NT/2000/XP, Windows 95/98/ME, and LAN
Manager computers can simultaneously access the same printer. The following diagram illustrates how TROY
external print servers are used in a typical network.
