Windows NT 4.0 Configuration
There are several options for setting up printing in a Windows NT environment.
We recommend using the built-in LPR protocol within Windows NT 4.0 to
access the printer. LPR print services may be used via TCP/IP by following the
instructions in this section.
Peer-to-peer print services may also be used by following the Windows 95/98
instructions in this guide. Peer-to-peer print services use the IPX protocol and
may be preferable when TCP/IP setup is not desired.
Windows NT printing is very flexible.You can configure the individual Windows
NT or Windows 95/98 workstations to print using a different protocol than the
Windows NT server. For example, a Windows NT server could be configured to
print via TCP/IP using the instructions in this section. The printer could then be
designated as shared on the NT server, allowing workstations to print via the
NT server using a different protocol (such as the default NetBEUI). The
optimum Windows NT printing configuration depends upon the particular
environment and user and administrator experience and preferences.
Generally, LPR printing over TCP/IP covered in the following instructions is the
best choice for environments where TCP/IP is already in use.
TCP/IP Required Components
The Windows NT 4.0 system performing the NIC configuration must have the
TCP/IP protocol installed. The following steps describe how to check for and, if
necessary, add the required TCP/IP components.
• Click on the Windows Start button. Select Settings and Control Panel.
• Double click on Network and select the Protocols tab. If TCP/IP Protocol is
not on the list of Network Protocols, click on Add to install it.
• Select the Services tab. If either Microsoft TCP/IP Printing or Simple
TCP/IP Services is not on the list of Network Services, click on Add to install
them.
