Conguring the SMBs settings
To congure the SMBs settings:
1. From the desktop menu, click System Setup, and then click Printer.
The Printer Setup dialog box is displayed.
2. Click SMBs tab, and use the following guidelines when printing to a Windows network printer.
a. Select SMB—Select the SMB you want from the list.
b. Printer Name—(Required) Enter the name to be displayed in your list of printers.
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.
This name 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 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).
d. \\Host\Printer—Enter the Host\Printer or use the browse folder icon next to the box to browse your Microsoft Networks
and make the printer selection you want from the network printers available (the DNS name or IP address of the Windows
print server on the network).
e. Printer Class —(Optional) Select the printer class from the list.
f. Enable the printer device—Must be selected to enable the printer. It enables the device so it displays on the remote host.
g. 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, see Using Your Thin Client as a Print Server (LPD).
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 thin client as described in Conguring the Network Settings.
3. Click OK to save the settings.
