    • The IP identifier of the host where the printer is connected. This can be the DNS name or the IP address. A direct-connect printer has its own IP identifier. A printer connected to a UNIX computer uses the computer’s IP identifier.
  • Page 187 This name can have up to 32 characters and can be the same as the printer name identified on the printer’s UNIX host. For a direct-connect printer, see the hardware documentation to find the name by which the network printer identifies the print queue.

    For example, the TCP/IP printer being created will interact with a UNIX computer running the print server component (LPD). If LPD recognizes a printer attached to the UNIX computer by the name Crisp, enter the name Crisp in this box.

    The LPDSVC service is the server side of TCP/IP printing for UNIX clients. If any UNIX client on the network wants to print to a printer connected to a Windows NT computer, this service needs to be running on the Windows NT computer so it can accept requests from UNIX clients.

  • Page 193: Logging Into The Printer Server

    The LPDSVC service is independent of the LPRMON service. The LPRMON service allows a Windows NT computer (and all clients who can access this computer) to print to a printer connected to a UNIX system, as described in the previous section.
