Line Printer Daemon
HotLPD is a 32 bit Line Printer
Daemon application for Windows 95 / 98 / 98 2nd Ed / 98 Me or Windows NT4 / 2000 / XP. This software accepts print
requests from hosts that support LPR printing and redirects them to printers
that are attached to any networked PC.
HotLPD has a simple user
interface that allows the user to monitor multiple queues and easily manage
activity.
HotLPD uses TCP protocol
and listens by default on port 515. Through a configuration dialog box,
users can change this default port to another value.
