Mac OS X Leopard - ARCAism

CHAPTER 5 CONNECTING PERIPHERALS TO YOUR MAC 105
Line Printer Daemon (LPD): This is an older Unix printing system that has largely been
replaced by CUPS. To connect with an LPD printer, you will need its network address, and
you will need to know the name of the print queue. An LPD printer can be set up under
the IP options in the Printer Browser window.
Others: There is a handful of other, less common, mostly older, proprietary methods
of connecting to a network printer. Leopard supports a number of these, including HP
Jetdirect, Canon IJ Network, Epson FireWire, Epson TCP/IP, and HP IP Printing.
If you are connecting to a Windows network printer (shared or otherwise), click the
Windows button, and then browse through the network until you locate the printer you want
(Figure 5-6). It’s unlikely that a driver will be selected for you automatically, so you will need to
select “Select a driver to use” from the Print Using menu. When you select the appropriate driver,
click the Add button.
