Dell ThinOS 2402 Administrator’s Guide

Configure the SMBs settings

1. From the desktop menu, click System Setup > Printer.
   The Printer Setup dialog box is displayed.
2. Click the SMBs tab, and do the following when printing to a Windows network printer:

   

   1. Select SMB—Select the SMB port from the drop-down list.
   2. Printer Name—Enter the name of the printer. If you do not specify a printer name, the SMB shared printer name is used automatically.
   3. Printer Identification—(Required) Enter the type or model of the printer in the exact text of the Windows printer driver name—including capitalizations and spaces.

      Printer mapping in a Citrix session on ThinOS uses Citrix UPD (Universal Printer Driver). You can enter any string in the Printer Identification field.

   4. \\Host\Printer—(Required) Enter the IP address, system name, or FQDN of the host and specify the shared name of the printer. After you specify the values and move the cursor, the SMB credentials dialog box is displayed. You are prompted to enter the host username, password, and the domain name.
      NOTE:If the host has not joined any domain, enter WORKGROUP in the domain name field.
   5. Printer Class—Select the printer class from the drop-down list as PS.
   6. Enable the printer device—Must be selected to enable the printer. It enables the device to be displayed on the remote host.
   7. Enable LPD service for the printer—Select this option to make the thin client an LPD (Line Printer Daemon) network print server for LPR printing requests from the network. If you want to use thin client as an LPD printer server, DHCP must not be used and a static IP address must be assigned to the client. See Configuring the network settings for more information.
      NOTE:If you are configuring Enable LPD service for the printer from the local Printer Setup window, restart the client for the LPD service to work in VDI sessions. If you are configuring from the Wyse Management Suite policy, you need not restart.
3. Click OK to save your settings.
