Lpr/Lpd - Xerox WorkCentre 7500 Series System Administration Manual

Network Configuration

LPR/LPD

1. The Line Printer Daemon (LPD) and Line Printer Remote (LPR) protocols provide printer spooling and
network print server functionality for UNIX-based systems, such as HP-UX, Linux, and Macintosh.In
CentreWare Internet Services, click Properties > Connectivity > Protocols.
2. Click LPR/LPD.
3. Under Protocol, select Enable.
4. Type an LPR/LPD Port Number or use the default port number of 515.
Under Advanced Settings, select Enabled to allow PDL Switching. This option allows the printer to
5.
process a single print job that contains two or more printer languages. An example is a PostScript
print job with a PCL header.
6. Select Enabled to enable PDL banner page attributes override LPR control file attributes for job
name and owner. This feature allows you to replace the standard information displayed on a banner
page with the user name and job name from the print job.
7. Select the desired option from the Place temporary hold on which jobs drop-down menu. Options
include:

None (Use printer's default banner sheet job name if data file 1st): The printer does not wait
to receive the job control information. This selection can cause banner page information to print
incorrectly.

Only those with data file received 1st: The printer holds the job if the data file for the job is
received first. This option ensures that the printer waits to receive the control file information to
print banner page details correctly.

All (consistent with older implementations): This option puts all jobs on hold. All data is
received before a job begins printing. This setting can cause jobs to print slowly but results in
accurate banner page information.
8. Click Apply to save the new settings or Undo to retain the previous settings.
