INSTALLING AN LPR PORT

You should suggest that Angela configure two logical printers for the printer. She should assign

one of the logical printers a higher priority than the other printer. She should also name the log-

ical printers to indicate their use. (For example, she might name the logical printer with the

lower priority “Long Document Printer” and name the printer with the higher priority “Normal

Use Printer.”) She should share each of the printers with the network and explain to the other

users on the network how the printers are configured.
