Printing with Windows
Printing with a Windows 2000/XP
or Windows NT Print Server
This describes how to configure a cli-
ent computer on a network using
Windows 2000/XP, Windows NT
Server or Windows NT Workstation
as a print server.
When using a Windows 2000/XP or
Windows NT print server, select a
shared printer on Windows 2000/XP
or Windows NT.
This section describes running [Add
Printer Wizard] on each client compu-
ter, and adding the Windows 2000,
Windows XP, and Windows NT 4.0
print servers as the network printer.
These instructions are for Windows
98.
Limitation
❒ When using a print server connect-
ed to the machine with SmartNet-
Monitor for Client, you cannot use
Recovery Printing and Parallel
Printing.
❒ When using Windows XP as a
print server, the client computer
cannot receive notification of print
job completion.
Note
❒ This section assumes the client is
already configured to communi-
cate with a Windows 2000/XP or
Windows NT print server. Do not
begin the following procedure un-
til the client computer is set up and
configured correctly.
❒ When using Windows NT 4.0 as
the print server, make sure you in-
stall the Windows NT 4.0 printer
driver before connecting the print
server. There is a Windows NT 4.0
printer driver on the CD-ROM la-
beled “Printer Drivers and Utili-
ties”.
