17.3.3 Storing and Using Printer Drivers
As explained earlier in this chapter, to use a shared printer connected to the device, a
driver for the printer must be installed on the LAN computer from which the print job is to be
sent. You can use the device file server to store printer drivers.
The drivers should be uploaded from a Windows computer and stored in the system
storage area that you have created on one of the disk partitions. The printer can then be
installed on other LAN computers using the driver stored on the device.

To upload the driver files to the device:
1. From Window's Start menu, click Run , and then type "cmd" to open a command shell.
2. At the prompt, type net use to view the list of shares and their status.
3. Type net use /del \\mp264\share-B to delete the specific network mapping entry.
Alternatively, you can use net use /del * to delete all network mapping entries.
4. Type net use * \\openrg\print$ [Admin's password] [/user:admin] . This ensures
that you are logged into the print server using the Admin user and have the
permissions to upload files.
5. Browse to \\mp264 (use a Windows Explorer window if you are using a browser other
than Internet Explorer). Should a Windows login dialog box appear, enter your Web
username and password. The following window appears, displaying the disk and
printer shares available on the device.

want to install it now. Click

unavailable, you can either browse to a location on your computer where you have
stored the driver, or click

with your printer).
10. Click OK ; the driver is uploaded to the device’s system storage directory (e.g.
