Other Printer Data Streams The following is information on printer data streams that are referenced in the above printer tables, but that are not listed in the Printer Data Stream section below:
Explanation of the Fields in the Printer Lists The following sections provide an explanation for each of the headings in the printer tables provided in the above documents. Click on the arrow in front of any section to read the explanation. The headings are Printers, Printer Data Stream, Host-Based or Windows Only, PDT File for PC5250, MFRTYPMDL for HPT, LPR, PJL, SNMP, and IPP. Printers The Printers column contains the name of each printer, or printer series. The printers are grouped by type of printer (for example, laser printers, color laser printers, ink jet printers, dot matrix and line printers, and multi-function printers) and are generally listed in ascending order. An attempt is made to have an entry for each ASCII printer from a particular manufacturer, whether they are currently marketed by that manufacturer or not.
•••••••••
Printer Data Stream The Printer Data Stream column lists the printer data streams supported by each particular printer. If the printer lists more than one data stream, you can look across the table for each data stream to see how it is supported by PC5250 Printer Definition Table (PDT) Files, Host Print Transform (HPT), Remote Output Queues, *LAN 3812 PJL device descriptions, *LAN 3812 SNMP device descriptions, and *LAN 3812 IPP device descriptions. Support for these can differ depending on the data stream. Some popular printer data streams include:
Note: If the printer tables refer to any printer data streams other than the ones listed above, then an explanation of those data streams will be included at the bottom of the printer tables. Host-Based The Host-Based column shows if a specific printer is a Host-Based or Windows-Only printer. The term Windows-Only printer means that the printer was designed to be used only on a PC running a version of Microsoft Windows and was also generally designed to be used in a home or small office environment rather than in a networking environment. The term Host-Based printer expands this to refer to any printer that relies on the processing power of the host computer to generate printable pages; for example, if the host computer is running one of the versions of Microsoft Windows, Linux, or Macintosh operating system. Note: The term Windows-Only printer is becoming somewhat obsolete because newer printers that fit this category often come with printer software and printer drivers that allow them to be used on Apple Macintosh computers and PCs running one or more versions of the Linux operating system. However, the term Windows-Only printer will often continue to be used to describe Host-Based printers. Because they rely on the processing power of the host computer, Host-Based printers do not need a powerful processor of their own and, therefore, they tend to be less expensive than conventional printers. However, because they share the computer's processor, they might be slow and might slow down other tasks running on the computer. Host-Based printers typically use a proprietary printer data stream rather than an industry-standard printer data stream such as IBM Proprinter Data Stream (PPDS), Epson ESC/P2, HP Printer Control Language (PCL), or Adobe PostScript (PS). Because they use a proprietary printer data stream, Host-Based printers are not compatible with Host Print Transform (HPT) or a PC5250 Printer Definition Table (PDT) file. Because they will not work with HPT, they also will not work to print *AFPDS spooled files through the AFPDS-to-ASCII Transform code within HPT. The only way to get a Host-Based printer to print IBM i family spooled files is to attached it to a host computer and then use printer emulation software, such as a PC5250 printer session, to print the spooled file through the host-based printer driver. Because they use a proprietary printer data stream, host-based or Windows-only printers typically will work with a *LAN 3812 printer device description or a Remote Output Queue (RMTOUTQ), nor will they work with Host Print Transform (HPT) or a PC5250 Printer Definition Table (PDT) file. The only potential exceptions are printers that use a host-based version of an HP PCL printer data stream, such as PCL3 GUI, or printers that support HP PCL5e in addition to a host-based data stream. The best option for printing from the IBM i System to a host-based or Windows-only printer would be to configure a PC5250 printer session without the 'Transform print data to ASCII on IBM i' option for Host Print Transform (HPT) and without a Printer Definition Table (PDT) file. However, you will not be able to print *AFPDS or *USERASCII spooled files (since that requires using HPT) and will also have limited control over the formatting of their output, including limited control over the font selection. For step-by-step instructions for configuring a PC5250 printer session, please refer to the sections titled 'Configuring a PC5250 Printer Session' and 'Configuring a PC5250 Printer Session to use a Windows Printer Driver' sections in the following Technote: N1018716: IBM i Access for Windows: Configuring a PC5250 Printer Session Otherwise, consider replacing the host-based or Windows-only printer with a printer model that fully supports HP PCL5e, HP PCL5c, PCL5e emulation or PCL5c emulation. This field can have one of the following settings:
•••••••••
PDT File for PC5250 The PDT File for PC5250 column lists the name of a Printer Definition Table (PDT) file that can be used either when configuring a Personal Communications 5250 (or PC5250) printer session with the IBM i Access for Windows client, or when configuring a 5250 Print session with the java-based IBM i Access Client Solutions client. Personal Communications 5250 (PC5250) started shipping new PDT files starting in V5R3M0 IBM iSeries Access for Windows. PDT files listed in lowercase characters are shipped with V5R3M0 iSeries Access for Windows and above (for example, hppcl5.pdt), while PDT files listed in UPPERCASE characters are shipped with V5R2M0 iSeries Access for Windows and below (for example, HPLJ4.PDT ![]() 5250 Print sessions added support for Printer Definition Table (PDT) files, including a PDT compiler, in IBM i Access for Windows version 1.1.3. For more information on PDT files, including a list of all PDT files available through iSeries Access for Windows, or to get the older PDT files on a PC running V5R3M0 iSeries Access for Windows or higher, please refer to the following document: N1019626: List of Printer Definition Table (PDT) Files for Use with PC5250 For information on configuration and limitations of PC5250 printer sessions, with or without a PDT file, please refer to the following document: N1018716: System i Access for Windows: Configuring a PC5250 Printer Session MFRTYPMDL for HPT The MFRTYPMDL for HPT column lists the Manufacturer Type and Model (MFRTYPMDL) setting that can be used with Host Print Transform (HPT) to select the appropriate data stream for that printer. This can apply to use with a PC5250 printer session as well as a Remote Output Queue, a *LAN 3812 PJL device description, a *LAN 3812 SNMP device description, or a *LAN 3812 IPP device description. Note: A setting of QWPDEFAULT refers to setting the manufacturer type and model (MFRTYPMDL) parameter to *WSCST, *WSCSTLETTER, or *WSCSTCONT132, and then setting the workstation customizing object (WSCST) parameter to QWPDEFAULT in library QSYS. This special workstation customizing object causes Host Print Transform to send plain ASCII text without any printer controls, such as page size, LPI, CPI, font, print quality, and so on. For more information on using Host Print Transform (HPT) with various ASCII printers, please refer to the following documents: N1019698: Printer Model Settings for Host Print Transform (HPT) N1019470: Using Host Print Transform (HPT) with a PC5250 Printer Session at V5R1M0 and Above
•••••••••
PJL / SNMP / IPP / LPR The PJL / SNMP / IPP / LPR column shows whether the printer is likely to work using one of the following configurations:
Note: The information in this field assumes that the printer is directly connected to the network using a built-in network interface card (NIC), or using an external print server provided by the printer manufacturer. Using one brand of printer hardware with another brand of print server may not provide the same capabilities as an internal NIC or external print server that is provided by the printer manufacturer. PJL When PJL is specified, a *LAN 3812 PJL device description can most likely be used to print to this printer when the printer is directly connected to the network using a built-in network interface card (NIC), or using an external print server provided by the printer manufacturer. By definition, a *LAN 3812 PJL printer device description is a printer device description that has the Device class (DEVCLS) parameter set to *LAN, the Device type (TYPE) parameter set to 3812, the Device model (MODEL) parameter set to 1, the LAN attachment (LANATTACH) parameter set to *IP, and the System driver program (SYSDRVPGM) parameter set to either *HPPJLDRV or *IBMPJLDRV. The term PJL refers to the HP Printer Job Language. PJL allows for two-way communication with the printer when attached to the LAN using a print server that also supports bidirectional PJL. Support for the PJL print driver is available in the base code for R410 OS/400 and above, and was added to R370 OS/400 through PTFs. Support for the PJL print driver is largely dependent on the internal network interface card (NIC) or external print server used with the printer. Therefore, this column is as much of a statement about the NIC or print server typically shipped with the printer than it is about the printer itself. If it is unclear whether the NIC, print server, or printer supports PJL, contact the manufacturer. This field can have one of the following settings:
N1010134: Configuring a *LAN 3812 PJL Device Description N1019689: Recommended PJL Port Number Values for *LAN 3812 PJL Device Descriptions N1019652: Configuration Settings and Error Messages for *LAN 3812 PJL Device Descriptions N1019003: Capabilities and Limitations of *LAN 3812 Printer Device Descriptions N1010288: Using Host Print Transform (HPT) with a *LAN Device Description SNMP When Konica Minolta Drivers For MacSNMP is specified, a *LAN 3812 SNMP device description can most likely be used to print to this printer when the printer is directly connected to the network using a built-in network interface card (NIC), or using an external print server provided by the printer manufacturer.By definition, a *LAN 3812 SNMP printer device description is a printer device description that has the Device class (DEVCLS) parameter set to *LAN, the Device type (TYPE) parameter set to 3812, the Device model (MODEL) parameter set to 1, the LAN attachment (LANATTACH) parameter set to *IP, and the System driver program (SYSDRVPGM) parameter set to *IBMSNMPDRV. The term SNMP refers to Simple Network Management Protocol. SNMP allows for two-way communication with the printer when attached to the LAN using a print server that also supports SNMP. Support for the SNMP print driver is available in the base code for R450 OS/400 and above, and is being added to R430 and R440 OS/400 through PTFs. Support for the SNMP print driver is largely dependent on the internal network interface card (NIC) or external print server used with the printer. Therefore, this column is as much of a statement about the NIC or print server typically shipped with the printer than it is about the printer itself. If it is unclear whether the NIC, print server, or printer supports SNMP, contact the manufacturer. This field can have one of the following settings:
N1019572: Configuring a *LAN 3812 SNMP Device Description N1019571: Recommended SNMP Port Number Values for *LAN 3812 SNMP Device Descriptions N1019570: Configuration Settings and Error Messages for *LAN 3812 SNMP Device Descriptions N1019003: Capabilities and Limitations of *LAN 3812 Printer Device Descriptions N1010288: Using Host Print Transform (HPT) with a *LAN Device Description Note: A large number of HP LaserJet and compatible printers, and even some line matrix printers, have built-in support for SNMP. Many printers will have support for both PJL and SNMP, but even more printers have support for only SNMP, so if the SNMP field has a '?' then it is a good idea to try configuring a *LAN 3812 SNMP device description to see if it will work. Another option is to first try configuring the printer on a PC running Windows 2000, on a Windows 2003 Server, or on Windows XP Professional to test the connectivity to the LAN-attached printer. If a Windows Test Page can successfully print to that printer, then looking at the printer port will show whether the printer supports printing using LPR/LPD or printing use RAW on a TCP/IP printer port. If it is setup to use RAW on a TCP/IP printer port, then the printer will most likely work using a *LAN 3812 SNMP device description with that TCP/IP printer port specified in the Port number (PORT) parameter. For more information, please refer to the following document: N1018919: Using the Add Printer Wizard within Windows to Test Connectivity to a LAN-Attached Printer IPP When IPP is specified, a *LAN 3812 IPP printer device description can most likely be used to print to this printer when the printer is directly connected to the network using a built-in network interface card (NIC), or using an external print server provided by the printer manufacturer. By definition, a *LAN 3812 IPP printer device description is a printer device description that has the Device class (DEVCLS) parameter set to *LAN, the Device type (TYPE) parameter set to 3812, the Device model (MODEL) parameter set to 1, the LAN attachment (LANATTACH) parameter set to *IP, and the System driver program (SYSDRVPGM) parameter set to *IBMIPPDRV. IPP allows for two-way communication with the printer when attached to the LAN using a print server that also supports IPP. Support for the IPP Print Driver is available in the base code for R520 OS/400. Support for the IPP Print Driver is largely dependent on the internal network interface card (NIC) or external print server used with the printer. Therefore, this column is as much of a statement about the network interface card (NIC) or print server typically shipped with the printer than it is about the printer itself. If it is unclear whether the NIC, print server, or printer supports IPP, contact the manufacturer. This field can have one of the following settings:
N1019375: Configuring a *LAN 3812 IPP Device Description N1019376: Recommended Remote Location (RMTLOCNAME) Values for *LAN 3812 IPP Device Descriptions N1019374: Configuration Settings and Error Messages for *LAN 3812 IPP Device Descriptions N1019003: Capabilities and Limitations of *LAN 3812 Printer Device Descriptions N1010288: Using Host Print Transform (HPT) with a *LAN Device Description LPR When LPR is specified, the LPR/LPD (Line Printer Requester/Line Printer Daemon) protocol. a Remote Output Queue or the Send TCP/IP Spooled File (SNDTCPSPLF or LPR) command can most likely be used to print to this printer when the printer is directly connected to the network using a built-in network interface card (NIC), or using an external print server provided by the printer manufacturer. By definition, a Remote Output Queue (RMTOUTQ) is an output queue that has the Remote system (RMTSYS) parameter set to *INTNETADR, a host name or an IP address, and (for these purposes) the Connection type (CNNTYPE) parameter set to *IP. Note: RMTOUTQs can be configured with the Connection type (CNNTYPE) parameter set to *SNA, but those are used to send spooled files from one output queue or one system to another using SNADS, not using TCP/IP. By definition, a *LAN 3812 TSPLPRD printer device description is a printer device description that has the Device class (DEVCLS) parameter set to *LAN, the Device type (TYPE) parameter set to 3812, the Device model (MODEL) parameter set to 1, the LAN attachment (LANATTACH) parameter set to *USRDFN, and the User-defined driver program (USRDRVPGM) parameter set to the TSPLPRD program, usually in library QGPL. Support for printing using the TCP/IP Line Printer Requester (LPR) and Line Printer Daemon (LPD) protocols is available in the base code for R230 OS/400 and above for the SNDTCPSPLF and LPR commands, and in the base code for R310 OS/400 and above for Remote Output Queues. Support for Remote Output Queues, as well as the SNDTCPSPLF and LPR commands, is largely dependent on the internal network interface card (NIC) or external print server used with the printer. Therefore, this column is as much of a statement about the NIC or print server typically shipped with the printer than it is about the printer itself. If it is unclear whether the NIC, print server and/or printer supports LPR/LPD, contact the manufacturer. This field can have one of the following settings:

The term Windows-Only printer means that the printer was designed to be used only on a PC running a version of Microsoft Windows and was also generally designed to be used in a home or small office environment rather than in a networking environment. The term Host-Based printer expands this to refer to any printer that relies on the processing power of the host computer to generate printable pages; for example, if the host computer is running one of the versions of Microsoft Windows, Linux, or Macintosh operating system. Note: The term Windows-Only printer is becoming somewhat obsolete because newer printers that fit this category often come with printer software and printer drivers that allow them to be used on Apple Macintosh computers and PCs running one or more versions of the Linux operating system. However, the term Windows-Only printer will often continue to be used to describe Host-Based printers. Because they rely on the processing power of the host computer, Host-Based printers do not need a powerful processor of their own and, therefore, they tend to be less expensive than conventional printers. However, because they share the computer's processor, they might be slow and might slow down other tasks running on the computer. Host-Based printers typically use a proprietary printer data stream rather than an industry-standard printer data stream such as IBM Proprinter Data Stream (PPDS), Epson ESC/P2, HP Printer Control Language (PCL), or Adobe PostScript (PS). Because they use a proprietary printer data stream, Host-Based printers are not compatible with Host Print Transform (HPT) or a PC5250 Printer Definition Table (PDT) file. Because they will not work with HPT, they also will not work to print *AFPDS spooled files through the AFPDS-to-ASCII Transform code within HPT. The only way to get a Host-Based printer to print IBM i family spooled files is to attached it to a host computer and then use printer emulation software, such as a PC5250 printer session, to print the spooled file through the host-based printer driver. Because they use a proprietary printer data stream, host-based or Windows-only printers typically will work with a *LAN 3812 printer device description or a Remote Output Queue (RMTOUTQ), nor will they work with Host Print Transform (HPT) or a PC5250 Printer Definition Table (PDT) file. The only potential exceptions are printers that use a host-based version of an HP PCL printer data stream, such as PCL3 GUI, or printers that support HP PCL5e in addition to a host-based data stream. The best option for printing from the IBM i System to a host-based or Windows-only printer would be to configure a PC5250 printer session without the 'Transform print data to ASCII on IBM i' option for Host Print Transform (HPT) and without a Printer Definition Table (PDT) file. However, you will not be able to print *AFPDS or *USERASCII spooled files (since that requires using HPT) and will also have limited control over the formatting of their output, including limited control over the font selection. For step-by-step instructions for configuring a PC5250 printer session, please refer to the sections titled 'Configuring a PC5250 Printer Session' and 'Configuring a PC5250 Printer Session to use a Windows Printer Driver' sections in the following Technote: N1018716: IBM i Access for Windows: Configuring a PC5250 Printer Session Otherwise, consider replacing the host-based or Windows-only printer with a printer model that fully supports HP PCL5e, HP PCL5c, PCL5e emulation or PCL5c emulation. This field can have one of the following settings:

PDT File for PC5250 The PDT File for PC5250 column lists the name of a Printer Definition Table (PDT) file that can be used either when configuring a Personal Communications 5250 (or PC5250) printer session with the IBM i Access for Windows client, or when configuring a 5250 Print session with the java-based IBM i Access Client Solutions client. Personal Communications 5250 (PC5250) started shipping new PDT files starting in V5R3M0 IBM iSeries Access for Windows. PDT files listed in lowercase characters are shipped with V5R3M0 iSeries Access for Windows and above (for example, hppcl5.pdt), while PDT files listed in UPPERCASE characters are shipped with V5R2M0 iSeries Access for Windows and below (for example, HPLJ4.PDT). 5250 Print sessions added support for Printer Definition Table (PDT) files, including a PDT compiler, in IBM i Access for Windows version 1.1.3. For more information on PDT files, including a list of all PDT files available through iSeries Access for Windows, or to get the older PDT files on a PC running V5R3M0 iSeries Access for Windows or higher, please refer to the following document: N1019626: List of Printer Definition Table (PDT) Files for Use with PC5250 For information on configuration and limitations of PC5250 printer sessions, with or without a PDT file, please refer to the following document: N1018716: System i Access for Windows: Configuring a PC5250 Printer Session MFRTYPMDL for HPT The MFRTYPMDL for HPT column lists the Manufacturer Type and Model (MFRTYPMDL) setting that can be used with Host Print Transform (HPT) to select the appropriate data stream for that printer. This can apply to use with a PC5250 printer session as well as a Remote Output Queue, a *LAN 3812 PJL device description, a *LAN 3812 SNMP device description, or a *LAN 3812 IPP device description. Note: A setting of QWPDEFAULT refers to setting the manufacturer type and model (MFRTYPMDL) parameter to *WSCST, *WSCSTLETTER, or *WSCSTCONT132, and then setting the workstation customizing object (WSCST) parameter to QWPDEFAULT in library QSYS. This special workstation customizing object causes Host Print Transform to send plain ASCII text without any printer controls, such as page size, LPI, CPI, font, print quality, and so on. For more information on using Host Print Transform (HPT) with various ASCII printers, please refer to the following documents: N1019698: Printer Model Settings for Host Print Transform (HPT) N1019470: Using Host Print Transform (HPT) with a PC5250 Printer Session at V5R1M0 and Above

PJL / SNMP / IPP / LPR The PJL / SNMP / IPP / LPR column shows whether the printer is likely to work using one of the following configurations:
Note: The information in this field assumes that the printer is directly connected to the network using a built-in network interface card (NIC), or using an external print server provided by the printer manufacturer. Using one brand of printer hardware with another brand of print server may not provide the same capabilities as an internal NIC or external print server that is provided by the printer manufacturer. PJL When PJL is specified, a *LAN 3812 PJL device description can most likely be used to print to this printer when the printer is directly connected to the network using a built-in network interface card (NIC), or using an external print server provided by the printer manufacturer. By definition, a *LAN 3812 PJL printer device description is a printer device description that has the Device class (DEVCLS) parameter set to *LAN, the Device type (TYPE) parameter set to 3812, the Device model (MODEL) parameter set to 1, the LAN attachment (LANATTACH) parameter set to *IP, and the System driver program (SYSDRVPGM) parameter set to either *HPPJLDRV or *IBMPJLDRV. The term PJL refers to the HP Printer Job Language. PJL allows for two-way communication with the printer when attached to the LAN using a print server that also supports bidirectional PJL. Support for the PJL print driver is available in the base code for R410 OS/400 and above, and was added to R370 OS/400 through PTFs. Support for the PJL print driver is largely dependent on the internal network interface card (NIC) or external print server used with the printer. Therefore, this column is as much of a statement about the NIC or print server typically shipped with the printer than it is about the printer itself. If it is unclear whether the NIC, print server, or printer supports PJL, contact the manufacturer. This field can have one of the following settings:

By definition, a *LAN 3812 SNMP printer device description is a printer device description that has the Device class (DEVCLS) parameter set to *LAN, the Device type (TYPE) parameter set to 3812, the Device model (MODEL) parameter set to 1, the LAN attachment (LANATTACH) parameter set to *IP, and the System driver program (SYSDRVPGM) parameter set to *IBMSNMPDRV. The term SNMP refers to Simple Network Management Protocol. SNMP allows for two-way communication with the printer when attached to the LAN using a print server that also supports SNMP. Support for the SNMP print driver is available in the base code for R450 OS/400 and above, and is being added to R430 and R440 OS/400 through PTFs. Support for the SNMP print driver is largely dependent on the internal network interface card (NIC) or external print server used with the printer. Therefore, this column is as much of a statement about the NIC or print server typically shipped with the printer than it is about the printer itself. If it is unclear whether the NIC, print server, or printer supports SNMP, contact the manufacturer. This field can have one of the following settings:

Many printers will have support for both PJL and SNMP, but even more printers have support for only SNMP, so if the SNMP field has a '?' then it is a good idea to try configuring a *LAN 3812 SNMP device description to see if it will work. Another option is to first try configuring the printer on a PC running Windows 2000, on a Windows 2003 Server, or on Windows XP Professional to test the connectivity to the LAN-attached printer. If a Windows Test Page can successfully print to that printer, then looking at the printer port will show whether the printer supports printing using LPR/LPD or printing use RAW on a TCP/IP printer port. If it is setup to use RAW on a TCP/IP printer port, then the printer will most likely work using a *LAN 3812 SNMP device description with that TCP/IP printer port specified in the Port number (PORT) parameter. For more information, please refer to the following document: N1018919: Using the Add Printer Wizard within Windows to Test Connectivity to a LAN-Attached Printer IPP When IPP is specified, a *LAN 3812 IPP printer device description can most likely be used to print to this printer when the printer is directly connected to the network using a built-in network interface card (NIC), or using an external print server provided by the printer manufacturer. By definition, a *LAN 3812 IPP printer device description is a printer device description that has the Device class (DEVCLS) parameter set to *LAN, the Device type (TYPE) parameter set to 3812, the Device model (MODEL) parameter set to 1, the LAN attachment (LANATTACH) parameter set to *IP, and the System driver program (SYSDRVPGM) parameter set to *IBMIPPDRV. IPP allows for two-way communication with the printer when attached to the LAN using a print server that also supports IPP. Support for the IPP Print Driver is available in the base code for R520 OS/400. Support for the IPP Print Driver is largely dependent on the internal network interface card (NIC) or external print server used with the printer. Therefore, this column is as much of a statement about the network interface card (NIC) or print server typically shipped with the printer than it is about the printer itself. If it is unclear whether the NIC, print server, or printer supports IPP, contact the manufacturer. This field can have one of the following settings:

By definition, a Remote Output Queue (RMTOUTQ) is an output queue that has the Remote system (RMTSYS) parameter set to *INTNETADR, a host name or an IP address, and (for these purposes) the Connection type (CNNTYPE) parameter set to *IP. Note: RMTOUTQs can be configured with the Connection type (CNNTYPE) parameter set to *SNA, but those are used to send spooled files from one output queue or one system to another using SNADS, not using TCP/IP. By definition, a *LAN 3812 TSPLPRD printer device description is a printer device description that has the Device class (DEVCLS) parameter set to *LAN, the Device type (TYPE) parameter set to 3812, the Device model (MODEL) parameter set to 1, the LAN attachment (LANATTACH) parameter set to *USRDFN, and the User-defined driver program (USRDRVPGM) parameter set to the TSPLPRD program, usually in library QGPL. Support for printing using the TCP/IP Line Printer Requester (LPR) and Line Printer Daemon (LPD) protocols is available in the base code for R230 OS/400 and above for the SNDTCPSPLF and LPR commands, and in the base code for R310 OS/400 and above for Remote Output Queues. Support for Remote Output Queues, as well as the SNDTCPSPLF and LPR commands, is largely dependent on the internal network interface card (NIC) or external print server used with the printer. Therefore, this column is as much of a statement about the NIC or print server typically shipped with the printer than it is about the printer itself. If it is unclear whether the NIC, print server and/or printer supports LPR/LPD, contact the manufacturer. Ibm 2380 Driver For MacThis field can have one of the following settings:
