     Installation Instructions:

     1.   Create a directory on the server called PATCH.

     2.   Create the following three subdirectories under the PATCH directory:

               DISK1
               DISK2
               DISK3

     3.   Unzip PTF445.EXE into the DISK1 subdirectory.

     4.   Unzip PTF446.EXE into the DISK2 subdirectory.

     5.   Unzip PTF447.EXE into the DISK3 subdirectory.

     6.   Unzip PTF448.EXE into the DISK4 subdirectory.

     7.   The server must be active; however, COMMEXEC.NLM must not be
          running.

          a.   Issue the UNLOAD HOSTPRT (If already loaded) command.
          b.   Issue the CSDOWN command.
          c.   Issue the UNLOAD COMMEXEC command.
          d.   Load Install.
          e.   Select the "Products" option.
          f.   Press the INSert key
          g.   Enter the correct path to the DISK1 directory, the INSTALL
               program will install the appropriate files from DISK2 or DISK3
               directory as applicable.

               For example:

                    SYS:\PATCH\DISK1

               INSTALL will inform you when installation of the PTF series is
               complete.

     8.   Verify installation of the PTF 445 series using the following steps:

          a.   Load Install.
          b.   Select the "Products" option.
          c.   Make sure HostPrint is now at Version 1.10.8.

     9.   Log in to the NetWare HostPrint server as SUPERVISOR.

     10.  Follow the configuration procedure outlined in the NetWare HostPrint
          1.1 Administration Guide and the Quick Configuration card that
          applies to NetWare 4.0 users, even though you installed HostPrint on
          a 3.1x server.

          You do not need to load the NetWare 4.0 shell (VLM) as mentioned in
          the NetWare HostPrint Administration Guide (page 2-18) and the Quick
          Configuration card.

     11.  The new PRINTDEF and PRINTCON utilities create a new PRINTDEF and
          PRINTCON database files, based on NetWare 4.01, that are different
          from the NetWare 3.11 version.

          For this reason, you will need to run the PRINTDEF program to import
          the devices you created with HPDEF.  You will also need to run
          PRINTCON to create new print job definitions to be used for
          HostPrint.

          Print jobs created previously with the earlier version (3.1x) of
          PRINTCON will no longer be usable by HostPrint because their format
          is different from the new PRINTCON utility (4.0X).

          a.   PRINTDEF:  Refer to the NetWare HostPrint Administration Guide,
               starting on page 2-19, STEP NO.4, and follow the program
               prompts.

          b.   PRINTCON: Refer to the NetWare HostPrint Administration Guide,
               starting on page 2-23, and follow the program prompts.

          The new PRINTCON and PRINTDEF utilities that you install on the
          SYS:SYSTEM directory of your HostPrint server are used ONLY when
          printing from HOSTPRINT.

     12.  If you will be managing HostPrint from within Windows, read
          PTF448.TXT.

          For NetWare printing, you will still be using the PRINTCON and
          PRINTDEF utilities that are presently on the SYS:PUBLIC directory of
          your NetWare server.  These files must not be overwritten with the
          new PRINTCON and PRINTDEF files from this PTF.

     IMPORTANT NOTE

          After installing this PTF, you will be required to log in as
          SUPERVISOR to any file server to which you want to send the
          HostPrint print files.

          The PRINTDEF database file is called NET$PRN.DAT and is created in
          the SYS:\PUBLIC subdirectory when PRINTDEF is executed.

          The PRINTCON database file is called PRINTCON.DAT and is created in
          the SYS:\MAIL\1 subdirectory when PRINTCON is executed.

     Patch History:

     The PTF 445 series is the first "patch" for HostPrint 1.1.
