Windows NT 4.x systems can print using lpr/lpd. The configuration procedure is as follows:
1. Go to the Start button, choose Settings, and then select Printer. Double-click on the Add Printer icon to
get the Add Printer Wizard. Click on My Computer (Not Network Printer), and then click on Next.
2. Select Add Port, select LPR Port from the list of available ports, and then click on New Port.
3. Type in the IP address that you wish to assign to the print server in the Name or address of server providing
lpd: box. If you do not have a router on the network, this IP address must match the first three bytes of the IP
address of your computer. For example, if your computer has an IP address of 192.189.207.53, your print
server must have an address like 192.189.207.27.
4. Type in the print server service name in the Name of printer of print queue on that server: box. If you do
not know which service name to use, enter BINARY_P1, and then click on OK:
5. Click on Close. The new print server IP address should be listed and highlighted as an available port. Click
on Next.
6. Select the desired printer manufacturer and model (click Have Disk if your printer is not listed), and then
click on Next.
7. If the driver already exists, select Keep Existing Driver (if it does not, this step will be skipped), and then
click on Next.
8. If desired, change the name of the printer and/or make it the default, and then click on Next.
9. If desired, make the printer shared (so other users can access it), and select the operating system(s) that these
other computers will be running, and then click on Next.
10. Select Yes when you are asked "Would you like to print a test page?" Click on Finish to complete the
installation. You may now print to the printer as if it were a local printer.
