For details, see the next section.

Important note about the remote printer name

Whichever UNIX system you use, the name used for the remote printer (or rp in the /etc/printcap file) in configuring the GA-1120 must be one of the following:

print hold

The remote printer name is also used when setting up your

Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP Workstation or Windows NT 4.0/2000 Server to connect to the GA-1120 over TCP/IP. Enter the remote printer name when you set up your Windows NT 4.0/2000 printer, as the “Name of printer or print queue on that (lpd host) server” in the Add LPR Compatible Printer dialog box.

For the Windows 2000/XP printer driver, enter the remote printer name for Queue Name under LPR Settings in the Configure Standard TCP/IP Port Monitor dialog box.

Setting up the GA-1120 on TCP/IP networks

Every machine (host) on a TCP/IP network, including the GA-1120, must have a unique 32-bit internet address (IP address). Contact your network administrator to obtain an address for the GA-1120. Workstations on a TCP/IP network can print directly to the GA-1120 as a remote printer, or can print to a Windows NT 4.0/2000 server or UNIX workstation acting as a print server. Since the GA-1120 spools jobs and acts as a print server, there is no advantage in placing another print server between a workstation and the GA-1120. If you choose to do so, however, there is no difference in setup except that a client machine does not have its own spooling area.
