Windows NT 4.0 Or 2000 Host Setup Problems

The installation procedure covered earlier in this chapter assumes that the
ethernet is configured with the correct IP address, subnet mask and gateway
(if required), and that the administrator can ping and telnet to the ethernet
from the server console. If this is not the case, use the printer front panel to
configure the ethernet before proceeding.
Installing Microsoft TCP/IP Printing
The ethernet installation for Windows NT 4.0/2000 also requires the
"Microsoft TCP/IP Printing" service on the server. To install this service, click
the Network icon in the Control Panel and click the "Services" tab. Click "Add
Service" and select "Microsoft TCP/IP printing." You may encounter the
following:
•
Do you have administrative privileges?
This installation requires administrator privileges.
•
"LPR port" is not listed.
Cancel the installation and install the Microsoft TCP/IP printing service on
the server.
•
LPR configuration warning.
The ethernet cable is not plugged in or the printer is not turned on. This
message is a communication failure between the NT/2000 server and the
ethernet. Check cabling, IP address settings, gateway, etc.
