8 Windows Configuration
Overview
This chapter details a complete Windows configuration setup including:
1. Identifying the LineJet Print Server on the network using TCP/IP as the
underlying protocol
2. Configuring the LineJet Print Server with its mandatory TCP/IP settings
(IP address and subnet mask)
3. Configuring a new printer on the Windows station
Windows Environment Description
The LineJet Print Server card supports network printing under Windows
environments by using TCP/IP. In a Windows NT
setup, pure TCP/IP is used
as the network protocol whereas with Windows 95
or Windows 98
,
NetBIOS over TCP/IP is used.
Figure 10 shows two of the most common Windows setups you will see with
the LineJet Print Server. The ideal configuration is a network printer defined
on the NT server to be shared by Windows 95 clients. However, any Windows
station can also go directly to the LineJet Print Server.
