b. Printer Name — (Required) Enter name you want displayed in your list of printers.
most USB direct-connected printers report/ll in their printer name automatically.
NOTE: If Enable LPD service for the printer is selected, the printer name becomes the queue name for other
clients using LPR to print to this printer.
c. Printer Identication — Enter the type or model of the printer in the exact text of the Windows printer driver name—
including capitalizations and spaces, most USB direct-connected printers report/ll in their printer identications
automatically.
This entry must be either the device driver name for the printer under the Microsoft Windows system, or a key to map to
the device driver. If not specied, the name will be defaulted to the printer-supplied identication for standard direct-
connected USB printers or Generic / Text Only for non-USB connected printers upon connection to Windows hosts. The
driver name mapping takes place either through a printer-mapping le read by the system as part of the global prole
(wnos.ini) or by MetaFrame servers through the MetaFrame printer conguration le (\winnt\system32\wtsprnt.inf).
NOTE: The maximum characters allowed in the Printer Identication eld is 31. If your printer driver string is
more than 31 characters (including space), you can create a txt le (printer.txt) and upload to your le server.
Edit the txt le and type the content, such as "HP Color" = "HP Color LaserJet CM1312 MFP PCL6
Class Driver". Add the command line printermap=printer.txt to your wnos.ini le. Now, you can type
“HP Color” in the Printer Identication eld instead of the full driver string.
d. Printer Class— This is optional. Select the printer class from the list PCL5, PS, or TXT or PCL4.
e. Enable the printer device — Select this option to enable the directly-connected printer. It enables the device to display on
the remote host.
f. Enable LPD service for the printer — Select this to make the thin client an LPD (Line Printer Daemon) network print
server for LPR printing requests from the network.
NOTE:
If the thin client is to be used as an LPD printer server, DHCP must not be used and a static IP address must be
assigned to the client, see Conguring the Network Settings.
