Configuring on Windows 98se/Me Platforms

After you finish the software installation procedure, your computer will be capable of network printing provided by the DI714P+. For convenience, we call the printer connected to the printer port of the DI-714P+ a printer server. On a Windows 95/98 platform, open the Printers window in the My Computer menu.

Now, you can configure the print server of the DI-714P+:

Find out the corresponding icon of your printer server, for example, the HP LaserJet 6L. Right click on that icon, and then select Properties.

The following screen appears:

Click on the

Details tab

Choose the “PRTmate: (All-in-1)” from the list attached at the Print To item. Be sure that the Printer Driver item is configured to the correct driver of your printer server.

DI-714P+.
