Using the Microsoft LPD Monitor for Windows NT
This section provides instructions for setting up your Ethernet adapter for line printer
(LPR) or line printer daemon (LPD) printing over the TCP/IP protocol using the built-
in Microsoft LPD monitor.
If you have not already done so, you should perform the TCP/IP basic setup procedures
prior to installing a printer for LPD printing. For help, see “Setting Up for TCP/IP” in
Chapter 2.
To see if TCP/IP is already installed, click the Network icon in the Control Panel. If the
TCP/IP Printing entry appears, then TCP/IP is already installed. Close the Network
folder and go to the procedure to install a printer later in this section. If the TCP/IP
Printing entry does not appear, go to the Windows NT 4.0 procedure to prepare for
LPR/LPD printing or to the Windows NT 4.0 procedure to install the TCP/IP protocol
stack.
