Print Services for UNIX

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jump to: navigation, search

Print Services for UNIX is the name currently given by Microsoft to its support of the Line Printer Daemon protocol (also called LPR, LPD) on Windows NT-based systems. It is installed using the Add/Remove Programs control panel applet. This component allows LPD queues to be supported using the native Windows printing system. It does not provide the lpr, lpq, lprm, or lpc commands.

[edit] History

Under Windows NT 4.0 and earlier this component was listed as "Microsoft TCP/IP Printing".
