Overview

DLC is a simple protocol that is included in Windows NT

®

4.0 and 

Windows

®

 2000 as standard. It can be used on other operating 

systems (such as Windows

®

 3.x) with the addition of vendor-supplied 

software that supports the Hewlett-Packard JetDirect card.

Quick Tips:

1

One way to print the details of all network settings is to print a 
configuration page. For information on how to print the 
configuration page, see Resetting the Print/Fax Sever back to 
factory settings (Test Switch) on page 13-4.

To use DLC on Windows NT

®

4.0 and Windows

®

 2000, you must first 

install the DLC protocol.

1

Log into Windows NT

®

4.0 with administrative privileges. Go to 

the Windows NT

®

4.0 Control Panel and double click on the 

Network icon. Windows

®

 2000 users select the properties of 

the Local Area Connection.

On Windows NT

®

4.0 systems, click on the Protocol tab, and 

click Add. Windows

®

 2000 users click the Install button from 

the General tab.

Because DLC is a non-routable protocol, there cannot be a 
router between the print server and the sending computer.
