Windows NT
Instructions
Windows NT (version 3.5 or higher) does come with TCP/IP
and lpr capabilities, although these must be installed when
the unit is configured. You must install the TCP/IP Protocol,
Simple TCP/IP Services, and Microsoft TCP/IP Printing prior
to entering the network printer on the workstation.
Setting Up the NIC
The NIC must be given an IP address and routing information
to be used with TCP/IP. This can be done with NIManage for
Windows if you have a NetWare connection on your network,
or with NIManage for Macintosh if there is an Apple
Macintosh on the network. Follow the instructions for these
programs which are documented elsewhere. If you cannot
use these programs, you can use either the ARP procedure or
the ntBOOTP program.
1. Install the NIC in your printer.
2. Power-up the printer.
Note
Once you have lpr installed on an Windows NT Server
workstation and have allowed printer sharing, other
workstations may use the printer through the Microsoft
Windows Network without having to have separate lpr
queues installed on each workstation.
If you wish to use ntBOOTP, you will need the
ntBOOTP.exe
file. This file is on the NIManage for Windows diskettes
supplied with the NIC.
