This section describes the procedures for configuration of the
client workstation and the DocuSP controller to enable native lpr
printing.
Workstation requirements
The workstation must meet the following hardware and software
requirements:
Hardware requirements
• 486 CPU or greater
• 4 MBytes RAM
Software requirements
• DOS 5.0 or higher
• One of the following supported TCP/IP protocol stacks:
PC/TCP Network Software by FTP Software, Inc.

PC/TCP Network software
Submitting documents from a PC to a queue on the DocuSP
controller will involve the following:
1. The hostname and IP address for the DocuSP controller
must be defined in the client workstation HOSTS file.
2. The DocuSP controller hostname and DocuSP queue name
need to be specified at the time of submission or else within a
configuration file.
The DOS command line mechanism can be tested as per the
following example, disregarding whether the DocuSP queue and
hostname have been defined in the configuration file:
CD \PCTCP
LPR -S printsrv -P proofqueue C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT
NOTE: For more information about setting up the PC, please
consult the FTP Software manuals.
