Using an additional driver
When the printer server’s OS is Windows 2000, XP, or Windows
NT 4.0, you can install the additional drivers in the server. The
additional drivers are for client computers that have different OS
from the server.
Follow these steps to set a Windows XP, 2000, or Windows NT
4.0 as a printer server, and install the additional drivers.
Note:
❏
You must access Windows XP, 2000 , or Windows NT 4.0 as the
Administrators of the local machine.
❏
If the Printer server’s OS is Windows NT 4.0, the Additional driver
can be used only on Service Pack 4 or later.
