Using the Machine on Your Network
This section provides instructions for using the MF3110 machine on your network.
By setting your machine as a shared printer on your network, the network users can
share the machine for printing. The print server and clients do not need to use the
same operating system, and it is possible to print from a Windows 98/Me client to a
Windows 2000/XP print server, or vice versa.
You can start printing simply by starting the server, even if the server was not
running when the client was started.
If the server is running on Windows 2000/XP, you can print even if no one is logged
into the server.
Setting the Machine as a Shared Printer
If you plan to share your MF3110 machine on a network, install the print server
locally, then make the following settings. For more information, see your print server
system documentation.
