NetBIOS over IP Peer to Peer Printing
1.
On NT4 workstations, verify that the TCP/IP protocol is installed and that it is configured for DNS
resolution of the NetBIOS Host Name. Verify that BOTH Microsoft TCP/IP Printing Services and
Workstation (SMB client) Services are installed.
2.
On Windows 2000 and XP workstations, from the "Properties selection" of the "Local Area
Connection" icon, verify that the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) is installed. Select the protocol and click
Properties. Verify that TCP/IP is configured for use of the DNS Server. Click the Advanced button and
select the DNS Tab. Verify that the checkbox labeled "Register this connection's addresses in DNS" is
checked. Select the WINS Tab and verify that the NetBIOS setting is set to either "Use NetBIOS Setting
from the DHCP Server," or that "NetBIOS is enabled over TCP/IP." Click Cancel twice and verify that
the Client for Microsoft Networks is installed. Finally, with your Operating System Installer Disk
readily available, through Add/Remove Programs and Add/Remove Windows Components, select
Other Network File and Print Services. Click Details, check the box for Print Services for Unix, and
click OK and Next.
3.
On 95/98/Me workstations, verify that the TCP/IP protocol is installed and that it is configured for
DNS resolution of the NetBIOS Host Name. Verify that the Client for Microsoft Networks is installed
and that the workstation has a Computer (NetBIOS) Name and is a member of a Workgroup.
4.
Create an LPR port on your NT4, Windows 2000, or Windows XP Operating System. Use a Print Utility
(Spooler) program to create an LPR port on the Windows 95/98/Me workstation.

When prompted for the "Name or address of server providing lpd" enter in the Printer's SMB Host
Name as seen on the Printer's Settings List.
6.
When prompted for a queue name, enter in your preference of an easily-identified name for this Printer.

Install the Print driver on your workstation and, when prompted to select a port to print through, select
the LPR port that you just created.
