Description

WinLPR is a robust program developed by Alixoft, LLC. The latest version, 3.07, offers a comprehensive utility for managing print jobs through the Line Printer Daemon protocol (LPR/LPD). This free tool enables users to accept print jobs from any LPD globally and print them directly from their PC. The program file, winlpr.exe, is designed to run effortlessly without an installation process, making it highly convenient. Simply drop it in any directory and launch the application.

WinLPR supports Windows 7 and excels in the Network Tools subcategory under the broader Internet & Network category. Additionally, the program has previous versions available, with version 3.0 being one of them. Key features include the ability to accept print jobs on any queue, utilize header and footer files, manage multiple configurable queues, and maintain an acceptable hosts list. Furthermore, the application logs activities to both file and screen, can insert CRLF for LF to address the stair-step effect on older printers, and offers auto-start and start minimized options.

The software also allows users to force or suppress banners and identify local IP addresses, providing an extensive range of functionalities for network printing needs. Its simplicity lies in the fact that no installation is necessary, offering a drop-and-run approach that is both efficient and user-friendly. Users seeking a free download of a reliable LPR/LPD utility will find WinLPR to be a valuable asset.
