Chapter 2 Setting Up Print Service 27

Listing an LPR Queue in Open Directory

You can make it easier for your users to find shared LPR queues by listing them in Open

Directory. If you include the PostScript Printer Description (PPD) printer model name in

the directory, users don’t need to worry about which printer model to choose.

To list a queue in Open Directory:

1 If you haven’t already, create the queue.

2 Open Workgroup Manager.

3 If you don’t see the Inspector buttons, choose Workgroup Manager > Preferences and

select “Show All Records tab and inspector.”

4 If necessary, switch to the correct directory domain.

5 Click the All Records button (it looks like a bull’s-eye, next to the Users, Groups, and

Computers buttons).

6 Choose Printers from the pop-up menu below the All Records button and click

New Record.

7 Double-click “untitled_1” next to RecordName attribute, type the name you want your

users to see when they’re browsing for the printer, and press Return.

8 Click New Attribute and choose PrinterLPRHost from the Attribute Name pop-up menu.

9 Click in the Text field, type the IP address or DNS name of the server that hosts the

queue, and click OK.

10 If the queue you are listing is not the default LPR queue on the server, click New

Attribute, choose PrinterLPRQueue from the pop-up menu, type the queue name in

the Text field, and click OK.

11 To specify the printer model (optional), click New Attribute, choose Printer Type from

the pop-up menu, type the model name, and click OK.

Important: Make sure the model name you type exactly matches the value of the

*ModelName attribute in the PPD file. To confirm the value of this attribute, try either of

the following:

12 Open Printer Setup Utility, click Add, choose IP Printing from the pop-up menu, choose

the manufacturer from the Printer Model pop-up menu, and find the name in the

resulting list.

13 Make a copy of the PPD file, use the gunzip command in Terminal to decompress it,

then open it in TextEdit or another text editor and search for “*ModelName.” You can

find the PPD files in /Library/Printer/PPDs/Contents/Resources/en.lproj.

14 Click Save.
