   NOTE Be sure to check with your vendor that the printer can accept Line Printer Request print requests.
   1. Select LPD—Select the LPD port from the drop-down list.
   2. Printer Name —Enter the name of the printer. If you do not specify a printer name, the LPD queue 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. LPD Hosts—(Required) 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.
   5. LPD Queue Name—(Required) An LPD host maintains a named queue for each supported printer. Enter the name of the queue associated with the printer to be 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.

   6. Printer Class—Select the printer class from the drop-down list as PS.
   7. Enable the printer device—Must be selected to enable the printer. It enables the device to be displayed on the remote host.
