Configuring the SMBs settings, LPD Queue Name

Page 118 highlights

a) Select LPD -Select the port you want from the list. b) Printer Name -(Required) Enter name you want displayed in your list of printers. c) Printer Identification-Enter the type or model of the printer in the exact text of the Windows printer driver name-including capitalizations and spaces. This name must 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). d) LPD Hosts-The DNS or WINS name of the server for the network printer. An IP address of the printer on the network can also be entered. 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. e) 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. This name can be different for each vendor. This field is required and must be correct so that the network printer accepts incoming print jobs properly. For example, auto can be used for HP LaserJet 4200n PCL6 as per documentation found on the HP Web site. NOTE: If the printer is attached to another thin client on your network, the LPD Queue Name must match the content of the Printer Name box on the thin client with the printer attached. f) Printer Class- (Optional) Select the printer class from the list. g) Enable the printer device-Must be selected to enable the printer. It enables the device so it displays on the remote host. 3. Click OK to save the settings. NOTE: When the LPD printer is mapped to one session and you cannot access the LPD service host, then the TCP connection tries to connect to the LPD service host. The timeout period is 60 seconds. During this timeout period, if you try to close the session, the session waits until the LPD printer connection is established. The initialization failure logs are displayed. Configuring the SMBs settings To configure the SMBs settings: 1. From the desktop menu, click System Setup, and then click Printer. The Printer Setup dialog box is displayed. 118 Configuring local settings
