2 - Client-server printing via
network port-connected shared
print queue
The printer is connected directly to the network and a
print queue is created on a network file/print server.
The server then manages the printing.
● Recommended for larger workgroups, more
than 30 users. Allows administrator control of
client printer driver settings.
● Requires a network connection on the printer or
an internal or external print server. If the printer
does not have a network connection, use
configuration 3 below.
● Installation overview:
• Hardware setup - plug the printer directly into
the network using a network cable.
• Run the CD that came with the printer on the
server PC to enable printing.
● Information required during software setup:
• Determine the printer’s hardware or
IP address, obtained from page 2 of the printer
configuration page. For instructions on how to
print the configuration page, see the User
Guide on the CD.
• Decide on a printer share name.
Installation steps:
1. Print a configuration page and note the
IP address on the second page, under TCP-IP.
For instructions on how to print the configuration
page, see the User Guide on the CD. If the
IP address is 0.0.0.0, wait for initialization to
complete (2 or 3 minutes) and print another
configuration page. If a valid IP address still is not
found over the network, a default IP address
(192.0.0.192 or 169.254.x.x) is assigned
automatically. If you want to assign a particular
IP address using the printer control panel, see the
instructions at the end of this document.
2. Insert the CD that came with the printer. The
software installer should start without assistance.
