LPD on Windows NT/2000
Systems
This section describes how to configure Windows NT/2000
networks to use the HP Jetdirect LPD (Line Printer Daemon)
services.
The process consists of two parts:
• Installing TCP/IP software (if not already installed).
• Configuring a network LPD printer.
Installing TCP/IP Software
This procedure lets you check whether you have TCP/IP
installed on your Windows NT system, and to install the
software if necessary.
Note You may need your Windows System distribution files
or CD-ROMs to install TCP/IP components.
1 To check whether you have Microsoft TCP/IP Printing
protocol and TCP/IP printing support:
• Windows 2000-Click Start, Settings, Control
Panel. Then double-click the Network and Dial-
up Connections folder. Select the Local Area
Connection for your network, then click the File
menu and select Properties.
If Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) is listed and enabled in
the list of components used by this connection, the
necessary software is already installed. (Proceed to
"Configuring a Network Printer for Windows 2000
Systems"). if not, go to step 2.
• NT 4.0-Click Start, Settings, Control Panel. Then
double-click the Network option to display the
Network dialog box.
If TCP/IP Protocol is listed in the Protocols tab, and
Microsoft TCP/IP Printing is listed in the Services
tab, you have already installed the necessary
software. (Proceed to
for Windows NT 4.0
2 If you have not previously installed the software:
"Configuring a Network Printer
Systems.") If not, go to step 2.
