#Virtual port windows 7 software
With the virtual TCP/IP port created, the IP address for print jobs is set to the PC’s IP address (192.168.1.73) in the software application. The PC’s IP address on the network is 192.168.1.73. In the above example, the TSP100LAN’s IP address on the network is 192.168.1.10. Remove and reinstall the serial or parallel ports to force Windows to. The virtual TCP/IP port utility will receive the data and then send it to the printer. This document applies to HP and Compaq desktop computers with Windows 7 or Windows. NOTE: Port 9100 receives data from software applications by designating the IP address of the computer ensure the software is sending data to the PC’s IP address, and not the printers. The virtual port takes all data sent to port 9100 and redirects it to the TSP100LAN to emulate direct to ethernet printing support. Setting up a virtual TCP/IP port allows software applications to send data directly to the TCP/IP output port, “9100” in most cases. The TSP100LAN does not natively support direct to ethernet port printing. Supported Interfaces: Ethernet (LAN), USB
