Adding a shared "Print Roaming" printer to print via an LPR port from a Windows Server 2008 R2

Open the Devices and Printers wizard and select Add a printer.
 

Select Add a local printer. 

On the Choose a printer port page, select Create a new port.

For Type of port, select Standard TCP/IP Port.

For Hostname or IP address, enter the address of the SafeQ CML server or SafeQ ORS server; then enter a name for the port.

Select Custom and click on Settings.

The Hostname or IP address of the SafeQ CML server or SafeQ ORS server created should already be visible in Port Name and Printer Name or IP Adress

• In the Protocol section, select LPR.

• On the LPR Settings page, enter the name of the queue that will be used for the printer (for example secure when using print roaming).

• If necessary, change other settings on the page to disable LPR Byte Counting and SNMP status.

  

From the list of printer drivers, select the appropriate driver or select a driver from the disk. Please make sure that the selected driver is supported by all MFPs in the print roaming group.

Enter a name for the new printer; then wait for the installation process to finish. Select other options according to your needs (sharing, setting the printer as default, test page printing); then finish the wizard.

To share the printer select Share this printer so that others on your network can find it and use it. Fore more information please refer to the following article Shared Print from Windows Server.

Send a test page to validate that the printer was installed correctly.

Select Print a test page

To give access right to the group Everyone, follow the procedure below.

Open Devices and Printers, right-click selected device and select  Printer properties

On the Security tab, make sure the group Everyone has the permission to Print.

To add a x86 print driver go to the tab  Sharing in order to add support for 32bit Windows OS.

Select Additional Drivers.

In the additional drivers window please select x86.

Then select the Location of the print driver.

Because the print driver has no direct access to any printer, it´s necessary to uncheck Bidirectional support to prevent a time-out caused by unsuccessful attempt for such communication. On the Ports tab, make sure Enable bidirectional support is left unchecked.

When the print driver has any other kind of bidirectional support embedded, it has to be disabled as well such as Auto Acquire Settings, Bi-Directional Communication, etc.

Because the driver is in default configuration, it is necessary select all available extensions and options such as finishers, paper trays, staplers, booklets to meet the highest available hardware configuration.

Enable Print Pooling and create another 4 LPR ports. Fore more information please refer to the following article Print pooling on MS Windows Server.
