Hello Folks:

Just some notes on how this page of setup info worked/didn't for me.

At first I assumed that the ICA Client Editor version I had would
work: but it didn't have the Network Protocol option in the default
settings panels. So on to the suggested download....

I dumped the PrintSpool, entered the suggested settings on the
website, including the TCP/IP+HTTP for the Network. [By the way for a
novice, the Printer setup option for 'Queue' (Catalina LPR in the
example) wasn't clear--I used the same Catalina LPR.] Saved and
closed.

When I tried to connect to BFS, NAV popped up a warning that an
application was trying to change the file BFS (my saved connection):
allow/deny? I said deny, but it wouldn't allow a connection
otherwise so I said: allow. After a few seconds, a dialog said
"Connection to PROD was broken", or similar. So I decided to change
the network connection option to TCP/IP. It worked, allowing me to
connect. But there was another unexpected change. In the past,
while it may have taken a while before a new panel/window opened
while navigating, the whole window was drawn at once. But now, the
panel is drawn one field at a time and button by button; not so
slowly, but still rather disturbingly jumpy.

But when I try to print it says there is no default printer!

What did I do wrong?
Another change, probably just how the Editor is working now--in the
past my BFS connection showed up in the app list as 'ICA Client', now
it's 'BFS,' the name of the saved connection.
