This update procedure provides printer page-size information for Windows NT applications. These instructions assume a basic familiarity with Windows NT operation and terminology. For additional information about Windows NT, refer to your Microsoft Windows NT documentation.

Note: For Windows NT 4.x, you need the original Windows NT 4.0 CD-ROM or diskettes to complete this procedure.

1. Log in as Administrator or a user with administrator privileges.

2. Click the Start button. Select Settings from the pop-up menu. Then select Printers from the submenu.

3. In the Printers dialog box, double-click the Add Printer icon.

4. On the first screen, select My Computer for a locally installed and managed printer. For a printer that is attached to a network server, or for a printer that is being shared by a network print server, select Network. Click Next.

5. If this is a locally connected printer, click the port the printer is connected to.
   1. LPTx is for a parallel-printer connection.

   2. COM is for a serial-connected printer.

6. If this is a networked printer, click Add Port. Tektronix printers support two types of network ports, LPR and AppleTalk. The next topic covers LPR ports; for information on AppleTalk ports, see Creating an AppleTalk port.

1. To connect via TCP/IP, double-click LPR Port in the Printer Ports dialog box. If the LPR port is not listed in this box, the Microsoft TCP/IP Printing Service needs to be added to the NT machine:
   1. Click Start, Settings, Control Panel, Network.

   2. Click the Services tab, then click Add.

   3. Select Microsoft TCP/IP Printing, then click OK and install this service. The original Windows NT distribution CD-ROM is needed during installation. If Microsoft TCP/IP Printing Services is not listed in the options box you must install the TCP/IP protocol on the server. See your Windows NT documentation for details.

2. In the Add LPR compatible printer dialog box, enter the printer's IP address in the box labeled Name or address of server providing lpd. In the box marked Name of printer or print queue on that server, enter PS in uppercase. Click OK.

3. When returned to the Printer Ports box, click Close.

4. At the Add Printer Wizard dialog box, click the box next to this new port; a check mark is added. Click Next.

1. In the Printer Port dialog box, double-click the AppleTalk Printing Devices port.

2. In the Available AppleTalk Printing Devices dialog box, select the zone the printer resides in. If no zone name appears, double-click the zone icon.

3. Windows NT searches for all AppleTalk devices in that zone and displays a list. Double click your printer in the list.

4. Windows NT prompts you to capture the printer; click No. (Capturing the printer causes it to disappear from the Chooser.)

5. After adding the printer port, click the box next to the new port to select it; click Next.

1. In the Add Printer Wizard dialog box, click Have Disk to add a new Tektronix driver.

2. Type in the path name to the driver files. This can be A: if the files are on a diskette. If these files were downloaded from an on-line service, type in the path name to where they were saved. Click OK.

3. Select the printer model and click Next.

4. If prompted that a driver is already installed for this printer, select Replace existing driver. Click Next.

1. Type in the printer's name. This can be any name you want. If the Windows-based applications are to use this printer as the default printer, click the appropriate box. Click Next.

2. If this printer is to be shared on the network, click the Shared button and click all the applicable platforms that may be printing to this printer. If the printer is a local printer only, click Not shared. Click Next.

1. If you want Windows NT to print a test page after installing the printer driver, click Yes (recommended). If you do not want the Windows NT test page, click No. When finished, click Finish.

2. At this point, Windows NT is ready to create the printer. You may need the original Windows NT distribution CD-ROM to complete this step. Once the Windows NT medium is installed, type in the path name to the files requested. The files are usually in the I386 directory for Intel-based Windows NT servers. Click OK.

3. If you had earlier chosen to have a test page printed, check to see if it printed. If the test page printed, click OK.
