Setting up SMB printing on Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003

SMB printing (also known as Windows printing) allows you to install the printer

driver and associated ﬁles, and print from your computer to a particular print

connection (Hold, Print, or Direct) on the Fiery EX2101. These instructions assume

you have installed the TCP/IP protocol and Client for Microsoft Networks.

Each connection (Hold, Print, or Direct) requires a new printer driver and printer

description ﬁle. To set up printing to a second or third print connection, repeat the

procedure following, “To set up SMB printing on Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003”. If

you install more than one printer, give each a descriptive name during printer driver

installation, such as Aero-Print or Aero-Hold, so you can easily identify printers.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Windows Setup.

SMB printing is referred to as Windows Printing in Setup, on the Control Panel Map,

and on the Conﬁguration page. For more information, see the Conﬁguration Guide.
