### 32-Bit Parallel Port Printer Driver

Driver Description:

The 32-Bit Parallel Port Printer Driver provides functions for 32-bit parallel port communications and user interface.

Compiler/Assembler Required:

         IBM VisualAge C++ V3.0

Build Instructions:

1.Ensure the necessary compilers and assemblers are installed.

2.Run the SETCMPLR.CMD REXX command file located in the DDK\TOOLS directory. This command initializes environment variables to be used during the build.

e.g., SETCMPLR <MSCpath> <VACpath> <CSETpath> <DDKpath>

    Where <MSCpath> represents the Microsoft C 6.0 install directory
           <VACpath> represents the IBM Visual Age C++ install directory
           <CSETpath> represents the IBM C Set ++ install directory
           <DDKpath> represents the DDK install directory

Note: A period (.) may be substituted for a compiler directory that is not used during the build.

3.Change the directory to DDK\WPSHELL\SRC\WPSH\PARALLEL.

4.To build the retail version, invoke NMAKE with target RETOS2C on the resident makefile.

5.To build the debug version, invoke NMAKE with target DBGOS2C on the resident makefile.

Files Created by Successful Build:

         Retail Version:
         Directory:  \DDK\WPSHELL\REL\OS2C\RETAIL\EN\OS2\DRIVERS

         o  PARALLEL.PDR

         Debug Version:
         Directory:  \DDK\WPSHELL\REL\OS2C\DEBUG\EN\OS2\DRIVERS

         o  PARALLEL.PDR
