Dell Wyse ThinOS Release 8.3.1 Administrator’s Guide

The Printer Setup dialog box is displayed.

In this example we have an HP LaserJet 4200n attached to a thin client through LPR.

1. Select LPD — Select LPD1 or LPD2 port.
2. Printer Name — Enter name you want displayed in your list of printers.
3. Printer Identification — Enter the type or model of the printer in the exact text of the Windows printer driver name — including capitalizations and spaces. In this example, enter HP LaserJet 4200n PCL6.
4. LPD Hosts — The DNS or WINS name of the server for the network printer. An IP address of the printer on the network can also be entered as we have used in our case example.
   • NOTE: If the printer is attached to another thin client on your network, the entry in the LPD Hosts box is the name or address of that thin client.
5. LPD Queue Name — An LPD host maintains a named queue for each supported printer. Enter the name of the queue associated with the printer used. This name can be different for each vendor. This field is required and must be correct so that the network printer accepts incoming print jobs properly. In our case example, auto can be used for HP LaserJet 4200n PCL6 as per documentation found on the HP website.
   • NOTE: If the printer is attached to another thin client on your network, the LPD Queue Name must match the content of the Printer Name box on the thin client with the printer attached.
6. Printer Class —You can leave this as default.
7. Enable the printer device — Must be selected to enable the printer enables the device so it displays on the remote host.
