Enable LPD service for the printer - Select this to make the thin client an LPD (Line
Printer Daemon) server for LPD printing requests from the network (see "Configuring
LPD Services").
Tip
If the thin client is to be used as an LPD printer server, DHCP must not be
used and a static IP address must be assigned to the thin client (see
"Network Setup" ).
Select LPD - Select the port you want from the list.
Printer Name - Enter the printer name.
Printer Identification - Enter the type or model of the printer. This name should be
either the device driver name for the printer under the Microsoft Windows system, or a
key to map to the device driver. If not specified, the name will be defaulted to the
printer-supplied identification for standard direct-connected USB printers or Generic /
Text for non-USB connected printers upon connection to Windows hosts. The driver
name mapping takes place either through a printer-mapping file read by the system as
part of the global profile (wnos.ini) or by MetaFrame servers through the MetaFrame
printer configuration file (\winnt\system32\wtsprnt.inf).
LPD Hosts - The DNS or WINS name of the server for the network printer. An IP
address can also be entered.
Tip
If the printer is attached to another thin client on your network, the entry in
the LPD Hosts box is the name or address of that thin client.
LPD Queue Name - An LPD host maintains a named queue for each supported
printer. Enter the name of the queue associated with the printer to be used.
Tip
The LPD Queue Name must match the content of the Printer Name box on
the thin client with the printer attached.
Printer Class - Select the printer class from the list.
Enable the printer device - Must be selected to enable the directly-connected printer.
