Changing Destination Names

When defining some printers within Windows environments, the Ethernet Interface requires that you specify a predefined destination rather than any name you would like. For example, when creating a new printer under Windows NT, a screen similar to Figure 23 displays.

The first field requires the IP address for the Ethernet Interface, and the second field must be filled in with a valid destination from the print server (e.g., d1prn). Otherwise, LPR will not be able to access the printer. Table 9 outlines the default destinations to choose from.
