Before continuing, ensure that an IP address has been assigned to the Wireless Print Server. Remember the following:

The remote host name is the name of the Wireless Print Server.

The remote printer name is the logical printer (for example, L1) on the Wireless Print Server.

If asked for the LPD type, enter the service type as BSD.

In the sample commands shown, printer_name is the Print Queue serviced by the logical printer on the Wireless Print Server, and Spooler_dir is the name of the directory, which is used to spool the print jobs.
