Support for remote spooler (LPR) connections

Optional. You can configure the client computer to allow Loftware Enterprise SP to print via remote spooler (LPR) connection (that is, to spool to a device queue that is directly connected to it by a wired or wireless connection). If you plan to do so, you must configure the computer as follows:

  • Ensure that the computer is accessible via IP address or DNS name.
  • If Windows Server is installed, ensure that the Role Services installed include Print Server and LPD Service.
  • If Windows is installed, ensure that the LPD Print Service feature of Windows is turned on. (The LPR Port Monitor feature is not required.)

It is not necessary to perform this configuration on other computers that access this device connection via shared network printing.

Note: For information about creating a remote spooler (LPR) connection, see Create a Remote Spooler (LPR) Connection.
