User’s Manual section 5 for further details.

Client-server printing:

The AXIS Print Monitor is not needed on the client platforms for 
client-server printing.

Windows 3.1 and Windows for Workgroups

All Windows 3.1 and Windows for Workgroups users requiring 
access to a network printer in peer-to-peer mode, will need to install 
the AXIS Print Utility for Windows onto their workstations.

Client-server printing:

This print method is suitable for larger networks and requires only 
one user to install the AXIS Print Utility for Windows software onto 
their workstation. The setup procedure is described below:

1. Install AXIS Print Utility for Windows onto the file server.

2. Set up your AXIS 560/660 from the file server as described in the 

peer-to-peer printing section below, but additionally check the 
Share box for your printer.

Your shared printers can now be used by all the Windows clients and 
you do not need to install the AXIS Print Utility on the clients.

Important note:

The server setup described on the previous page should only be 
made on a Windows for Workgroups workstation. 

Peer-to-peer printing:

This print method does not require a file server and is recommended 
for smaller networks. Follow these steps to install your AXIS 
560/660 for peer-to-peer printing at a Windows for Workgroups or 
Windows 3.1 workstation:

1. Double-click the AXIS Print Utility icon.

2. In the Port menu, click Add.

3. In the NPS Port list, select the AXIS 560/660 port to be installed.

The ports appear as <name>.LP1, <name>.LP2*, and 
<name>.CM1*, where <name> is AX followed by last six digits of 
the AXIS 560/660 serial number. For example: AX560B35.LP1
Note that this alphanumeric name will be superseded by any new 
name given to your AXIS 560/660 when using AXIS NetPilot™. 

*Not supported on the AXIS PrintPoint 1P 560/100 model.
