Installing the printer (Windows NT 4.0)
1 On the Start menu, point to Settings and then click Printers .
2 Double-click Add Printer and install the printer. Make the new printer
the default printer.
See “2 Installing the Printer Driver” (p. 2-1) for details about how to in-
stall it.
3 Right-click the new printer icon and select Properties from the menu.
4 Display the Ports tab.
5 Click Add Port .
This displays a list of enabled port types.
6 Select LPR Port and then click New Port .
7 On the Add LPR compatible printer dialog box, type the IP address of
the Network Card into the
Name or address of server providing lpd
box.
If the network you are on uses DNS (Domain Name Services), type in
the DNS name instead of the IP address.
8 Type PORT 1 into the Name of printer or print queue on that server
box, and then click OK to close the dialog box.
9 Click the Close button of the Printer Ports dialog box, and then click
the OK button of the Properties dialog box to close it.
10 Right-click the printer icon again to display its Properties dialog box,
display the
General tab, and then print a test page.
11 If the test prints normally, complete the procedure by clicking OK to
close the Properties dialog box.
After you finish installing a printer with the above procedure, you can use
it just as you would any standard local printer. The printer can also be
used as a network printer by other Windows computers on your network
whose Windows NT 4.0 systems are configured the same way as de-
scribed above.
