1. Windows 2000 Print Server Configuration

To use a printer connected to the Ethernet interface, select "SmartNetMonitor", "Standard TCP/IP Port" or "LPR Port" when installing t he printer driver.

• SmartNetMonitor See p.14 “Configuring the Protocols” and p.18 “Instal ling Soft wa re” and p.19 “Ins tallin g th e PCL

5c or RPCS Printer Driver” or p.24 “Installing the PostScript Printer Driver”.

• Standard TCP/IP Port, LPR Port See p.14 “Configuring the Protocols” and p.19 “Instal ling the P CL 5c o r RPCS Printer D river” or

p.24 “Installing the PostScript Printer Driver”.

Note
