You can use up to seven characters, but you can't use any of the following If you plan to use a shared print queue that receives print jobs from other workstations, install either the IBMNULL or MSNULL printer driver. To select the device to connect to, choose the port name entered in step 2. 5. Copy all the files in the PIPES directory to the remote print service directory (substitute the CD-ROM or diskette drive letter for D):  For TCP/IP, type: COPY D:\OS2\TCPIP\PIPE\*.* C:\EPNET  For NetBEUI, type: COPY D:\OS2\NETBEUI\PIPE\*.* C:\EPNET 6. Type CD\EPNET to change to the remote print service directory.
