PC-Kwik Print Spooler 3.0 with Windows Enhanced and Standard
ID: Q74658

The information in this article applies to:
-
Microsoft Windows versions 3.0, 3.0a, 3.1, 3.11
SUMMARY
To allow PC-Kwik Print Spooler version 3.0 to operate properly with
Microsoft Windows, Multisoft Corporation recommends that you follow these
steps:
- Disable the Print Manager. This is not required but sometimes it
improves performance. If you want the Print Spooler to only spool
data from non-Windows applications, leave the Print Manager
enabled. By default, Windows only lets the Print Spooler spool data
from non-Windows applications.
- If you want to spool data from Windows applications, change port
connection to LPTx.OS2, where x specifies the port being used.
If you are running Windows in 386 enhanced mode, you should try the
following steps:
- Set the following statements in the [386Enh] section of the
SYSTEM.INI file:
Com1AutoAssign=0 (If Com1 exits)
Com2AutoAssign=0 (If Com2 exits)
LPT1AutoAssign=0
- From the Control Panel, select the 386 Icon.
- Select Never Warn for device contention. Turning off the conflict
messages means that Windows cannot warn you if more than one
program is trying to use the same port at the same time. Make sure
that the first application has completed sending data to the
spooler before sending data from the second application.
