CHAPTER 2 TCP/IP PRINTING

2-7

Windows NT 4.0 Printing
(Printer Driver already installed)


Follow these steps if the printer driver is already installed.

1. Click on Start then select Settings/Printers to display the currently

installed printer drivers.

2. Double click the printer driver you wish to configure and select Printer

menu and then choose Properties.

3. Select the Ports tab and click on Add Port.
4. Select LPR Port (LPR Port will not be displayed unless you install the

"Microsoft TCP/IP Printing" protocol as described earlier) from the list
of available ports and click on New Port.

5. Type in the IP address that you assigned to the print server in the Name

or address of server providing lpd: box. If you have edited your HOSTS
file or are using Domain Name System, you can enter the name
associated with the print server, instead of an IP address. As the print
server supports TCP/IP and NetBIOS names, you can also enter the
NetBIOS name of the print server. The NetBIOS name can be seen in
your printer configuration page. From default the NetBIOS name will
usually appear as "BRN_xxxxxx" where xxxxxx is the last six digits of
the Ethernet address.

6. Type in the print server service name in the Name of printer or print

queue on that server: box. If you do not know which service name to use,
enter BINARY_P1 and then click on OK:

address (or name) that you specified.

9. If you wish to share the printer, click on the Sharing tab and share the

driver.
