3.5.2 Installation on a Mac
Printing via the shared network printer will be slower than when the printer is connected directly to
the USB port on the computer. After you press the Print button, please wait for the printer to
receive the data.
1. Go to System Preferences and click Print & Fax.
2. Click on the plus symbol to add a new printer.
3. Select the IP tab. For the Protocol, select HP Jetdirect – Socket and for the Address enter
the IP address of your network drive. The Name and Location are used to easily identify
the printer and do not have to be the same as the ones used in this example. For the last
step, select the corresponding printer driver and click Add.
4. Done! Your printer has been set up and is now ready.
Note
Not all USB printers are supported, e.g. multi function all-in-one printers and GDI/host-based
printers, therefore, your printer may not be compatible and printing might fail.
