Windows for Workgroups
Windows for Workgroups does not normally come with TCP/IP.
However, various TCP/IP facilities are available for Windows for
Workgroups workstations, including a free TCP/ IP provided by
Microsoft. There are third party lpr spoolers available. The follow-
ing instructions are based on the Microsoft TCP/IP and a
shareware lpr application that is available from various sources.
You will need the files
WFWTCP32.zip
and
WFWTCP32.txt
for
the TCP/IP, and
Windows lpr Spooler Version 4.1
(
wlprs41.zip
and
wlprspl.txt
) for the lpr.
See the file named
wlprspl.txt
for details about installing
Win-
dows lpr Spooler Version 4.1
.
If you wish to use the BOOTP, you also need the
BOOTPL16.exe
file provided with this NIC.
Windows 95
Windows 95 comes with a TCP/IP stack. To print with this proto-
col, a client also requires an lpr utility. This program is available
from various sources. The lpr queue can be created on each work-
station or the lpr queue can be created on one workstation and
shared on the network. Windows 95 workstations can also share an
lpr printer installed on a Windows NT server on the network.
The following instructions are based on the a shareware lpr appli-
cation that is available from various sources. You will need the
• See the documentation that comes with Windows for details about
installing TCP/IP on each workstation.
• Printing with TCP/IP requires that the workstation have TCP/IP capa-
bility and the corresponding spooler, lpr; or that the workstation can
share an lpr queue on a Windows NT server (for example) that has one.
In general, if printers are not shared, an lpr queue must be created on
each workstation from which printing is initiated. See the Windows
documentation about sharing printers.
