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).
d. LPD Hosts—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.
If the printer is attached to another thin client on your network, the entry in the LPD Hosts box is the name or address of
that thin client.
e. LPD Queue Name—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. For example, auto can be used for HP LaserJet 4200n PCL6 as per documentation
found on the HP Web site.
NOTE: If the printer is attached to another thin client on your network, the LPD Queue Name must match the
content of the Printer Name box on the thin client with the printer attached.
f. Printer Class— (Optional) Select the printer class from the list.
g. Enable the printer device—Must be selected to enable the printer. It enables the device so it displays on the remote
host.
3. Click OK to save the settings.
NOTE: When the LPD printer is mapped to one session and you cannot access the LPD service host, then the TCP
connection tries to connect to the LPD service host. The timeout period is 60 seconds. During this timeout period, if you
try to close the session, the session waits until the LPD printer connection is established. The initialization failure logs
are displayed.
Configuring the SMBs settings
To configure 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.
