= SUMMARY =

It has been reported that Microsoft Word version 5.00 will not print from a nondedicated SmartLan server.

SmartLan is a networking system from D-Link Systems that emulates an IBM PC LAN network. A possible workaround to printing directly to the printer would be to create a subdirectory for print files and print all documents to files. To print a document to file, choose Print File, and type the path to the print file subdirectory and filename (for example, C:.DOC).

If all of the print files are located in the same subdirectory, a batch file can be used to copy all of the files to the printer and then delete them from the subdirectory.

For more information on the SmartLan network software, contact D-Link Systems at the following address and phone number:
