5 Printing to a Network Printer

Printer setup can be automated so that users’ workstations attach to the

network printers they use each time users log in to the network. Users can use

the network printers without having to manually connecting to the printer

every time they want to print.

After connecting to a network printer, users can select the printer from any

application that they are using. See the application’s documentation for

information on using printers.

Attaching to a Network Printer

A printer driver for each type of printer must be installed on the workstations.

Users can set up network printing on a workstation by specifying the name of

the printer in any of the following programs:
