Network Printing from the Macintosh
Macintosh computers can connect to a TCP/IP network printer using the Line Printer Remote
(LPR) protocol. LPR printing can be set up on any Macintosh that has Desktop Printing installed

version 8.5.1 or higher is also required.
MacOS 8 or 9 Configuration
To configure the Macintosh to use the print server, follow these steps:
1.
From the Apple Extras folder, under Apple LaserWriter Software, launch the Desktop Printing
Utility.
A new window titled New Desktop Printer will appear.

Select LaserWriter 8 in the ‘With’ drop-down menu.
3.
Select Printer (LPR) and click OK.
A new window titled Untitled 1 will open.

If the PostScript Printer Description does not match your printer, click Change... and select
your actual printer.

Click OK to return to the Untitled 1 window.

protocol to connect to the network print server. Because of variations in the configuration
environments for these operating systems, please refer to your operating system documentation for
information on configuring for LPR printing.
The NETGEAR ProSafe Firewall’s print server supports graphics mode printing.
