HP 310X, 175X manual Windows NT 4.0 LPD setup procedure, A. Installing TCP/IP software

Meaning of the queue names:

The line printer daemon treats data in an text queue as unformatted or ASCII text, and adds a carriage return to each line before sending it to the printer. (Note that the actual observed behavior is that a PCL line termination command (value of 2) is issued at the beginning of the job.)

The line printer daemon treats data in an raw queue as formatted files in PCL, PostScript, or HP-GL/2 languages and sends the data without change to the printer.

Data in an auto queue will be automatically processed as text or raw, as appropriate.

For the binps queue, the line printer daemon requests the PostScript printer driver to output print data in 8-bit binary form (byte values in the range of 0 to 255, instead of the standard ASCII values in the range of 0 to 127).

For user-definedqueue names, the line printer daemon adds user-defined strings before and/or after the print data. (Click here for details on setting up user-defined print queues using the print server’s embedded Web server.).

If the queue name is not one of the above, the HP Jetdirect print server assumes it to be raw1.

The procedure depends on whether the system runs Windows NT 4.0 or Windows 2000.

Windows NT 4.0 LPD setup procedure

Along with these general instructions, see your system documentation for information on configuring these systems.

The process consists of these parts:

A.Installing TCP/IP software if not already installed

B.Configuring the networked printer with the queue and port

C.Verifying the configuration

A. Installing TCP/IP software

This procedure lets you check whether you have TCP/IP installed on your Windows NT system, and to install the software if necessary.
