Network printer – which connection type is correct?</H2>
<P class="western"><B>a) Network printer / printer server
box</B></P>
<P class="aufzählung-1-fortsetzung-western">For most printers that
have a built-in network interface or that are to the network using a
printer server box the "<B>LPD</B>" or "<B>Socket / Jetdirect</B>"
network protocol can be chosen. Most network printers and printer
servers support several protocols, often also the<B> IPP</B> protocol
is supported. If you don't have information on the network protocols
supported by your printer or server, you can try all three protocols.</P>
<P class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0cm">
</P>
<P class="western"><B>b) Printer attached to other computer in network</B>
</P>
<P class="aufzählung-1-fortsetzung-western">If the printer is
connected to another computer in the network, choose either "Windows
network printer" or "Linux network printer" depending on the computer.
Current Apple computers also support the IPP protocol.</P>
<P class="aufzählung-1-fortsetzung-western">Of course the printer
must be "shared" so that it accepts print jobs from other users in the
network.</P>
<P class="aufzählung-1-fortsetzung-western" style="margin-left: 1.25cm">
<I><B> Note</B></I>: Printers that have been shared for network use from
Linux and Apple servers are automatically visible on other Linux
clients, provided that "printer browsing" is enabled on the server &
client. If you print to such a shared network printer the print job is
processed on the server – this means that TurboPrint's printer status
monitor cannot show a print preview or control print jobs on the
server.</P>
<P class="aufzählung-1-fortsetzung-western" style="margin-left: 1.25cm">
It often makes sense to set up a print queue also on the client
computer - print jobs are processed locally and print preview is
possible. In this case the server will pass through all print data
directly to the printer port.</P>
<P class="western"><B>c) other printer port on local computer</B></P>
<P class="aufzählung-1-fortsetzung-western">If your printer is not
connected via network but to a local port that is not listed under
"Standard printer", choose "Other (CUPS URI)".</P>
