Printing - Setting Up LPR and IP printing for use with Print Manager Plus and Windows 2000 Server with Print Pooling

Client Configuration

  1. Open Print Center, add a new printer and choose IP Printing from the menu
  2. Enter the Windows 2000 Server hostname or IP address that queues are on:

    10.0.0.25
  3. Enter the shared queue name:

    LC16COV
  4. Choose the driver for the printer
  5. Print Manager Plus automatically calculates the page count from file size
  6. Print Manager Plus will strip the IP address from the username of the print job

Server Configuration

  1. Create two TCP/IP ports to the IP addresses of the two different printers:

    IP_10.0.0.5
    IP_10.0.0.8
  2. Once these ports are created, create two printers that print to these IP addresses:

    LC16COV1 maps to port IP_10.0.0.5, not shared

    LC16COV2 maps to port IP_10.0.0.8, not shared
  3. Create 2 LPR ports to the 2 queues that we just created:

    Server: 10.0.0.25
    Queue: LC16COV1

    Server: 10.0.0.25
    Queue: LC16COV2
  4. Create a new printer:

    LC16COV maps to LPR port 10.0.0.25:LC16COV1, shared as LC16COV

    Go to properties and enable printer pooling, select 10.0.0.25:LC16COV2

    Now LC16COV should be mapped to LC16COV1 and LC16COV2
  5. Make sure print accounting is only on the LPR queues

    If print accounting is on LC16COV, student will be charged twice for job in LC16COV and LC16COV1 or LC16COV2.
