Installing LPR Software

Follow the steps below to set up Windows NT to print with the Ethernet Card using LPR, or if you have already installed the TCP/IP Network Print Service from TCP/IP Protocol and Related Components, skip to “Configuring your printer” on page 4-7.

1.Click the Network icon in Control Panel.

2.After the Network Configuration dialog box appears, look for Microsoft TCP/IP Print in the Installed Software list box. If the option is listed, it is already installed, and you can skip to “Configuring your printer.” If the TCP/IP option is not listed, click Add Software.

3.After the Add Network Software dialog appears, choose

TCP/IP Protocol and Related Components from the Network Software list box; then click Continue.

4.In the Windows NT TCP/IP Option for Installation dialog box, select TCP/IP Network Print Support, and click

Continue. If you cannot select this option, cancel the operation, and proceed to “Configuring your printer.”

5.The next dialog box will ask for the setup disk for Windows NT. Insert the appropriate disk, and follow the instructions on the screen.

6.After setup is finished, the Network Installation dialog box appears again. Make sure that Microsoft TCP/IP Print appears in the Installed Network Software list; then click OK.

7.When the TCP/IP Components dialog box appears, set the IP address and the subnet mask of the Windows NT server or workstation. If you want to use the gateway (router), set the IP address of the nearest gateway as the default gateway. If you do not use the gateway, do not set the default to gateway.
