most USB direct-connected printers report/fill 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 Identification Enter the type or model of the printer in the exact text of the Windows printer driver
nameincluding capitalizations and spaces, most USB direct-connected printers report/fill in their printer identifications
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 specified, the name will be defaulted to the printer-supplied identification 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 file read by the system
as part of the global profile (wnos.ini) or by MetaFrame servers through the MetaFrame printer configuration file
(\winnt\system32\wtsprnt.inf).
NOTE: The maximum characters of printer Identification filed is 31. If your printer driver string is more than 31
characters (Include space). Please create a txt file called "printer.txt", and input content like "HP Color" = "HP Color
LaserJet CM1312 MFP PCL6 Class Driver"
Then add below command line in your wnos.ini file:
printermap=printer.txt
Then you just enter "HP Color" in Printer Identification filed instead of the full driver string.
d. Printer Class- (Optional) Select the printer class from the list PCL5, PS, or TXT or PCL4.
e. Enable the printer device - Must be selected to enable the directly-connected printer. It enables the device so it
displays on the remote host.
f. Enable LPD service for the printer - Select this to make the zero client an LPD (Line Printer Daemon) network print
server for LPR printing requests from the network.
NOTE:
If the zero 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.
