Creating a Printer Profile

You must create and load a printer profile before you connect a LAN printer to a host for the first time.

To create a printer profile:

On the Service menu, click Create New Profile On Service.
Type a profile name (for example, SalesProfile).
Click OK. The Printer Session Properties dialog box opens, where you define the properties of this session.
On the General tab, you must include the following information:
- IP Host/Gateway—Specify the IP address, machine name, or DNS name of the host machine from which reports are printed.
- LU Name/Device Name—Specify the logical unit (LU) or device name (for example, SALES) that the host is using to identify the host printer that the program is emulating. Consult with your host system administrator to obtain an LU name or a device name.
On the Printer Destination tab, click Use Specific Printer, and then Select Printer. In the Print Setup dialog box, click a printer on your system and specify printer settings.
Make any necessary changes in the remaining tabs. The default settings are sufficient for most situations.
Click OK.
