C. Verifying the configuration

From within Windows NT, print a file from any application. If the file prints correctly, the configuration was successful. If the print job is not successful, try printing directly from DOS using the following syntax:

lpr -S<ipaddress> -P<queuename> filename

where:

<ipaddress> is the IP address of the print server, <queuename> is the name raw or text, <filename> is the file you wish to print.

If the file prints correctly, the configuration was successful. If the file does not print, or prints incorrectly, see Troubleshooting.
