Users of Windows NT V3.5 or later (including Windows NT Advanced Server) can
print directly using the TCP/IP protocol to print to the Monarch print server. No
special software is required on the Windows NT system, and the printing operates
transparently with any application program.
Monarch print servers also support transparent printing from IBM LAN Server and
Warp Server file server, as well as from OS/2 Warp Connect workstations, using
the TCP/IP protocol. TCP/IP is included standard with Warp Server and with LAN
Server V4.0, and is optional on LAN Server V3.x systems. It is also included
standard with OS/2 Warp Connect, and is optional on earlier versions of OS/2.
In addition, client PCs connected to a Windows NT Advanced Server or to an IBM
LAN Server file server can print transparently to the print server. In this case, the
client PCs typically use the NetBEUI protocol to print jobs to the file server, which
in turn spools the job to the print server via TCP/IP. The advantage of TCP/IP
compared to other approaches is that it is a high-performance routable industry-
standard protocol.

To configure a print queue from a Windows NT computer, you must first configure
an IP address in both the computer and in the print server as follows:
1. If you have not already done so, install TCP/IP on your Windows NT system.
This is done via the Network icon in the Control Panel window of the Windows
NT system (the Control Panel is in the Main window on NT V3.5x systems, or
use the Start button on NT V4.xx to access the Settings menu).
a. On NT V3.5x systems, select Add Software and add TCP/IP Protocol and
related components. Click on Continue and choose the options TCP/IP
Network Printing Support and Connectivity Options, and click on
Continue again. Insert the requested disk(s) to copy the required files.
