Dns/Wins Netbios Name Resolution; To Set Up A Workstation To Print Directly To The Device - Xerox WorkCentre 7228 System Administrator Manual

DNS/WINS NetBIOS Name Resolution

To use the Device's NetBIOS name over the TCP/IP Network, the DNS and WINS Servers MUST be
configured for NetBIOS name to IP address resolution. Also, make sure that the Device is informed of
the addresses of the DNS/WINS Servers, using the instructions supplied under the Configure TCP/IP
Settings procedure in the Internet Services section of this guide.

To Set Up a Workstation to Print Directly to the Device

Refer to the set up instructions supplied for NetBIOS over IP Peer to Peer Printing in the Print Drivers
section of this guide or, if you are an EXPERIENCED SYSTEM ADMINISTRATOR, perform the following
steps:
1. On NT4 workstations, verify that the TCP/IP protocol is installed and that it is configured for DNS
resolution of the NetBIOS Host Name. Verify that BOTH Microsoft TCP/IP Printing Services and
Workstation (SMB client) Services are installed.
2. On 95/98/Me workstations, verify that the TCP/IP protocol is installed and that it is configured for
DNS resolution of the NetBIOS Host Name. Verify that the Client for Microsoft Networks is
installed and that the workstation has a Computer (NetBIOS) Name and is a member of a Workgroup.
3. Create an LPR port on your NT4 Operating System. Use a Print Utility (Spooler) program (such as
ACITS) to create an LPR port on the Windows 95/98/Me workstation.
4. When prompted for the "Name or address of server providing lpd" enter in the Device's SMB Host
Name as seen on the Device's Settings List.
5. When prompted for a queue name, enter in your preference of an easily-identified name for this
Device.
6. Install the Print driver on your workstation and, when prompted to select a port to print through, select
the LPR port that you just created.
7. Print a Test Print to verify successful communications with the device.
