Option Description
Printer Name Or
The network location of the printer. You must enter either the Internet Pro-
IP Address
tocol (IP) address or a Domain Name System (DNS) name of the network
interface printer. If you provide an IP address, Windows XP Professional
automatically supplies a suggested port name for the print device in the
form IP_IPaddress. If Windows XP Professional cannot connect to and iden-
tify the network interface printer, you must supply additional information
about the type of printer. To enable automatic identification, make sure that
the printer is powered on and connected to the network.
Port Name The name that Windows XP Professional assigns to the port that you created
and defined. You can enter a different name. After you create the port, Win-
dows XP Professional displays it on the Select A Printer Port page of the
Note If your printer uses a network protocol other than TCP/IP, you must install that net-
work protocol before you can add additional ports that use it. The tasks and setup informa-
tion required to configure a printer port depend on the network protocol.
How to Add an LPR Port
The LPR port is designed for computers that need to communicate with UNIX or virtual
address extension (VAX) host computers in accordance with Request for Comments
(RFC) 1179. For computers that need to submit print jobs to host computers, the stan-
dard TCP/IP port should be used in most cases. A network-connected printer must
have a card that supports the Line Printer Daemon (LPD) for TCP/IP printing to work
properly.
If you want to add an LPR port, you must first install the optional networking compo-
nent, Print Services For UNIX.
To install Print Services For UNIX, follow these steps:
