Manuals on the CD-ROM
Your CrownNet Systems Administrator Guide, CrownNet Setup Guide, Network Print Monitor Administrator’s Guide, and Network Print Monitor for Windows 95 Administrator’s Guide are included on the CD-ROM in Adobe Acrobat PDF format. The Acrobat Reader program is also on the CD-ROM. The CD-ROM insert provides installation instructions.
When you use Acrobat to view your manuals, keep the following tips in mind for using some of the navigation features built into Acrobat and your manuals.
nYou may view the document in three different styles: page only, with bookmarks, or with thumbnails. Try each to see which you like best. Viewing with bookmarks will enable you to use a quick table of contents to move around the document.
nThe toolbar also gives you quick access to page navigation features. For example, you may click a button to advance (>) or reverse (<) one page, go to the start (|<) or end (>|) of the document, or use the history button (<<) to go to the previous pages you viewed. There are other buttons in the toolbar to change view or magnification of the document.
nAs you browse through the document the open hand tool will sometimes turn into a pointing hand. You have discovered an embedded link in the manual. You will find these links in the table of contents, index, www addresses, and cross references. Click on the link to jump to a new location.
nUse the Acrobat Reader online help for a more complete explanation of these features.
Using the Acrobat Reader with your Manuals
Your manuals are stored in PDF format on the QMS Software Utilities CD-ROM. Use the Adobe Acrobat Reader, also included on the CDROM, to open them. PDF-formatted manuals give you more flexibility

and convenience than do hardcopy manuals when you have to access needed information. Here’s a list of some of the advantages of PDF formatted manuals:
nAbility to store the PDF manuals in a central location for access by anyone on the network
nAbility to view and print the manuals on any of the supported platforms (Windows, Macintosh, UNIX)
nAbility to view the manuals on-screen in different formats (side- by-side or two-up, one page at a time, scrolling two-up, article flow, and zooming capability up to 800%)
nAbility to conduct full text search built into Acrobat Reader 3.0
nAbility to print only the pages that you need
nAbility to view the manuals on web browsers using the Acrobat plug-in
In addition, your PDF-formatted manuals have been enhanced for onscreen viewing and navigation. Throughout each manual are numerous hotlinks to cross-reference points. The table of contents and the index are fully hotlinked to their respective page references.
We hope you enjoy using the Acrobat software to access the information in your QMS CrownNet user manuals. Your PDF-formatted manuals will never become dog-eared and yellowed or collect dust on some forgotten shelf. Your manuals will empower you to take full advantage of all the capabilities of your CrownNet interface

Installation
to force installation of the upgraded software.
The installation program creates and installs the software in a directory named y:\CROWN. CrownNet Manager stores important events in a log file, also in this directory.
»Note: See the main readme file on the CD-ROM for the exact location of this file.
5To start the CrownNet Manager for OS/2 automatically each time the print server is turned on, add the following commands, in this order, at the end of the STARTUP.CMD file (but before any @EXIT command):
set crownman=c:\crown
start c:\crown\crownman.exe -m
»Note: The -m option minimizes the CrownNet Manager window to an icon after the program opens.
6To start the CrownNet Manager now, open an OS/2 window and type the following commands:
set crownman=c:\crown
start c:\crown\crownman.exe
The CrownNet Manager window appears.
7To install specific ports, choose Install from the CrownNet Manager window.
8In the Installation of CrownNet Ports dialog box, select the appropriate printer port(s) and choose Install.
The selected ports are displayed in the CrownNet Manager window.
»Note: Port names are either the default or those chosen in “Interface Configuration” on page 32.
