Verifying the Configuration
In Windows, print a file from any application. If the file prints correctly, the configuration was successful.
If the print job is not successful, try printing directly from DOS using the following syntax:
lpr -S <ipaddress> -P<queuename> filename
where ipaddress is the IP address of the print server, queuename is the name “raw” or “text” and
filename is the file you wish to print. If the file prints correctly, the configuration was successful. If the
file does not print, or prints incorrectly, see
Troubleshooting the HP Jetdirect Print Server.
Printing from Windows Clients
If the LPD printer on the Windows server is shared, Windows clients can connect to the printer on the
Windows server using the Windows Add Printer utility in the Printers folder.
