LEARNING OBJECTIVE/S:
Server Module
Server Add-ons
When you add the Windows Server Backup Features and subordinate
items, you also install the following tools:
We’ll take a look at each of the installation methods in more detail below.
Probably the easiest for this specific role. I would use this method.
1. Open the Server Manager and wait for it to load.
4. In the “Add Features Wizard” page, scroll down and click to select
“Windows Server Backup features“. If you also want to get the
PowerShell command samples, manually select “Command Line
Tools“. You do not need this addition if you plan to use the GUI or the
WBADMIN command line tool. Click “Next“.
5. in the “Confirm Installation Selections” page click “Install“.
Option Description
Print Installs the print server and Print Management console. This is a
Server prerequisite for configuring print services on Windows Server 2008.
LDP Installs the TCP/IP Line Printer Daemon Service (LPDSV) allowing
Service UNIX, Linux and other Line Printer Remote (LPR0) based computers
to print via the print server. This setting also opens port in the
Windows Firewall.
Internet Creates an Internet Information Service (IIS) hosted web site where
Printing users can manage printers and connect and print to shared printers
hosted in the server using the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP). The
default URL for the web site is http://servername/Printers,
where servername is the name of the server running the print
services.
Once print services are installed a number of print management tools are
now available on the system.
2. In order to have the wizard search for printers on the network, ensure
that the Search for network printers is selected and click on Next. At this
point the wizard will begin the process of scanning the network for
printers. As each printer is detected it will be listed. In the following
example, the wizard has detected an HP Deskjet 5800 printer on the
network with an IP address of 192.168.2.10:
3. If no printers are detected, ensure that the printers are connected to the
network and powered on and are on the same subnet as the print server.
Once the scan is complete, select the required printer from the list and
click Next to proceed to the Printer Driver screen. If a driver for the
printer is already installed, select it from the drop down list.
6. On this screen, enter the name by which the new printer will be shared
to clients over the network. If the printer is not to be shared, ensure that
the Share this printer is not selected. Also, enter a location description
(for example, "Printer in Accounts") and comment if desired.
2. On the initial page of the wizard select the option labeled Add a TCP/IP
or Web Services Printer by IP address or hostname and click Next to
proceed to the Printer Address screen. If the type of printer is known
(TCP/IP device or Web Services Printer) make the appropriate selection.
Alternatively, leave the setting as Auto Detect to have the wizard identify
the printer type.
Local printers will be connected to the server using a serial (COM) port, a
parallel (LPT) port or a Universal Serial Bus (USB) port. Often, Windows will
automatically detect a new printer as soon as it is connected and powered up.
In this situation an icon will appear in the task bar indicating that the
new device has been detected. Clicking on this icon presents the option to view
details about the installation process, resulting in the appearance of a dialog
similar to the one illustrated below, where a Brother MFC-420CN printer has
been detected and is being installed:
Once the printer has been installed, it will likely need to be configured for
network sharing. To achieve this, launch the Print Management tool, select the
print server to which the printer is physically connected and click on Printers.
The center pane of the tool will display a list of printers installed on the current
print server. Identify the required printer in the list, double click on it to
display the properties dialog and select the Sharing tab:
When selected, all rendering of print jobs is performed on the client and
just the RAW print data sent to the server for printing. This offloads the
rendering overhead to the client computers, thereby reducing the load, and
increasing the scalability of the print server.
If Windows fails to auto-detect the printer it may be added manually
from Print Management by right clicking on the print server to which the device
is attached and selecting Add Printer.
On the initial screen select the Add new printer using an existing port and
choose the port to which the printer is connected from the drop down list. Once
selected, click Next to install a printer driver.
If one is already installed, select it from the drop down next to the use an
existing printer driver on the computer. Alternatively, select Install a new printer
driver and either select the printer make and model from the list, or use
the Have Disk to install the manufacturer supplied driver.
With a printer server configured and printers added the next step is to
cover the management of printer servers on Windows Server 2008.
