Use an Intel Netport as an LPR printer

I found some info on the Intel web site under the Windows 2000 / NT LPR configuration, but it worked for two iMacs at my wife's school.

Add a new IP Printer and type in the IP address of the Netport but make sure you remove the checkbox from the "Use default queue on server" and type in one of the following:

LPT1_PASSTHRU
LPT2_PASSTHRU
COM1_PASSTHRU
Your choice, of course, depends on the port that your printer is attached to. I "believe" this would also work on a single port Netport but I can't confirm that.
