LPR port
LPD, Line Printer Daemon, is the protocol associated with line-printer
spooling services. Users can use the printing service from LPD running on a
network print server through the LPR port. Most operating systems, such as
Microsoft Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003/Server 2008/Vista/7/Server 2008 R2,
Linux, and UNIX, support LPR port printing.
Configuring an LPR port
You can enable or disable the LPR Printing port through Embedded Web
Service.
In Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003/Server 2008/Vista/7/Server 2008 R2
To add an LPR port to Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003/Server
2008/Vista/7/Server 2008 R2, users must install a Standard TCP/IP port by
default, and then change the printing protocol in the printer properties. For
installing the Standard TCP/IP port, see page 30.
