Configuring Windows Firewall
If you are using Windows XP Service Pack 2 or another operating system equipped with
Windows Firewall as the print server, you need to configure Windows Firewall to allow
communication with the client computers.
Use the following procedure to ensure that Windows Firewall does not block this
communication.
•
If you installed the CAPT software from CD-ROM Setup, a [Warning] dialog box was
displayed.
- If you clicked [Yes], Windows Firewall was configured to allow communication with the
client computers.
- If you clicked [No], however, Windows Firewall was configured to block communication
with the client computers, and you will need to use the following method to clear that
block.
1. From the [Start] menu, select [Control Panel], and then click [Network and Internet
Connections]
➞
[Windows Firewall].
2. In the [Exceptions] sheet in the [Windows Firewall] dialog box, select the [Canon
LBP5000 RPC Server Process] check box, and then click [OK].
•
If you installed the CAPT software by any method other than CD-ROM Setup, you need
to configure Windows Firewall to unblock communication with the client computers using
the utility software. (See p. 8-15)
