Using the Remote Printer LPR/TCPIP Option at the Server Console

At the server console, you can create a Printer Agent to represent a printer attached to one of the following:

A workstation or a remote file server

Directly to the network, running in lpr mode in a TCP/IP environment and for which no gateway is available

A Printer Agent configured in this mode will emulate a legacy print server (PServer Emulation), and will no longer require the pserver.nlm file.

1Perform the steps described in “Creating Public-Access Printers in NetWare Administrator”.

2Choose Connection Type Remote Printer LPR/TCPIP.

This causes the Port Handler Configuration: Remote Printer LPR/ TCPIP Mode screen to appear.

3Choose IP Host, select Host Type, and provide the information re- quested.

4Click Accept and Exit.

The Printer Agent with its associated Print Device Subsystem and Port Handler string are then loaded. The Port Handler configuration utility closes and control returns to the NDPS Manager.
