How to set up a NT network printer?
How can I set up a NT 4.0 network printer with "PASS THROUGH" option?
(The printer was set up on the network NT4.0
and working fine but we need to have
"PASS THROUGH".)
Thanks for all your help.

By "Pass through" I take it you mean so that the server does not spool the print job first.
If that is the case then go to the printer properties, choose Scheduling and then select the option "Print directly to printer"

If what you mean by "pass through" is to have the printer forward its jobs to another print server, here's how:
1) open the properties for the printer
2) select the ports tab
3) click "add port"
4) click local port, then new port
5) in the nameof new port box, type the UNC for the other print server eg: \\server\printer, then click OK
The other print server must be using the same print driver.
Hope this helps,
Ian
