Step 1: Choose your setup (local or network printer)
Local printer A local printer is a printer attached to your computer using a USB or parallel cable. The
local printer is intended to be used by the computer to which it is attached. If you are
attaching a local printer, you must install the printer driver on your computer before
setting up your printer.
Continue with Step 2: “Install drivers for local printing” on page 7.
Network printer A network printer is a printer attached to a network either by a network cable (such as
Ethernet) or through the use of a server. If you are attaching a network printer, you must
set up your printer on the network first, and then install the printer driver.
Continue with Step 3: “Unpack the printer” on page 9.
Step 2: Install drivers for local printing
The printer driver is software that lets your computer communicate with your printer.
The procedure to install drivers depends on the operating system you are using. Use
the following table to find driver installation instructions for your particular operating
system. If you need additional help, refer to the documentation that shipped with your
computer and your software.

Windows Some Windows operating systems may already include a printer driver that is
compatible with your printer. This may mean that installation will seem automatic in later
versions of Windows. System printer drivers work well for simple printing, but they
contain less functionality than our enhanced custom printer driver.
Note: Installing a custom driver will not
replace the system driver. A separate
printer object will be created and appear
in the Printers folder.
Using Windows Server 2003,
Windows 2000, Windows XP,
Windows98SE, WindowsMe,
and Windows NT
Note: USB support is not available for
Windows NT operating systems.
Use the drivers CD that shipped with your printer to install the custom printer driver and
obtain all the enhanced printer features and functionality.

usually slower than parallel
printing, it is the preferred option
when there is a great deal of
distance between your printer
and computer or a parallel
interface is not available.
A 10BaseT/100BaseTX Fast
Ethernet port is standard on the
network model.
You can connect the printer to a
LAN drop or hub using standard
cabling that is compatible with
your network. The printer
automatically adjusts for the
network speed.
Fiber optic is a type of Ethernet, but uses different cables. Various fiber optic Ethernet ports are available on optional print server cards
that can be installed in your printer. If you purchased a fiber optic option card, see “Installing an option card” on page 24 for hardware
instructions.
802.11b wireless options:
This adapter is a piece of hardware that plugs into the Ethernet port on your printer. If you purchased this adapter for your printer, refer

33
Step 11: Install drivers for network printing
After you have assigned and verified the TCP/IP settings, you are ready to install the
printer on each network computer.
Windows In Windows environments, network printers can be configured for direct printing or
shared printing. Both network printing methods require the installation of a printer driver
and the creation of a network printer port.
Supported printer drivers
• Windows system printer driver
• Custom printer driver
System drivers are built into Windows operating systems. Custom drivers are available
on the drivers CD.
Supported network printer ports
• Microsoft IP port—Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, Windows XP, and
Windows Server 2003
• Printer network ports—Windows 95/98/Me, Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000,
Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003
For basic printer functionality, you can install a system printer driver and use a system
network printer port, such as an LPR or a Standard TCP/IP port. The system printer
driver and port let you maintain a consistent user interface for use with all the printers
on your network. However, using a custom printer driver and network port provides
enhanced functionality, such as printer status alerts.
Follow the steps for your printing configuration and operating system to configure your
network printer:
Printing configuration Operating system Go to page...
Direct
• Printer is connected directly to the network using a network cable, such as Ethernet.
• Printer drivers are typically installed on each network computer.
Shared
• Printer is connected to one of the computers on the network using a local cable, such

• Browse Network Neighborhood. Find the host name of the server and
look for the shared name you assigned to the printer.
Install the printer driver (or subset) on network clients
Note: This method is usually the best
use of system resources. The server
handles driver modifications and the print
job processing. This lets network clients
return to applications much faster.
Note: If this is a new printer, you may be
prompted to install a printer driver. If no
system driver is available, then you will
need to provide a path to available
drivers.
Using the point and print method
With this method, a subset of driver information is copied from the server to the client
computer. This is just enough information to send a print job to the printer.
1 On the Windows desktop of the client computer, double-click Network
Neighborhood.
2 Locate the host name of the server computer, and then double-click the host
name.
3 Right-click the shared printer name, and then click Install. 4 Wait a few minutes for the driver information to be copied from the server
computer to the client computer, and for a new printer object to be added to the
Printers folder. The time this takes varies based on network traffic and other
factors.
5 Close Network Neighborhood. 6 Print a test page to verify printer installation.
Using the peer-to-peer method
With this method, the printer driver is fully installed on each client computer. Network
clients retain control of driver modifications. The client computer handles the print job
processing.
1 Click Start à Settings à Printers. 2 Click Add Printer to launch the Add Printer wizard. 3 Click Network Print Server. 4 Select the network printer from the Shared printers list. If the printer is not listed,
enter the path of the printer in the text box.
The path will look similar to the following:
\\<server host name>\<shared printer name>
The server host name is the name of the server computer that identifies it to the
network. The shared printer name is the name assigned during the server
installation process.
5 Click OK. 6 Select whether you want this printer to be the default printer for the client, and
then click Finish.
7 Print a test page to verify printer installation.
