You can use these settings to be notifi ed of status
messages or errors per e-mail. These settings are not
required for basic operation of the device.

this page. These settings are not required for basic

5. Printer server (printer connection
)
The integrated printer server allows you to share a USB
printer on the network. A connected printer is
displayed below the USB Multifunction Server, as shown
in the image. If you have already used the printer on your
computer, the drivers are already installed and you can
continue with the next point. Otherwise, fi rst install the
printer driver on each computer that is to use this printer.
Use the instructions and driver CD from the printer
manufacturer. Depending on the manufacturer, you may
need to connect the printer to the computer directly.
After you have completed the installation of the driver,
reconnect the printer to the MFS.
There are two ways of connecting to the printer.
5.1 Direct connection
In this mode, Windows will act the same as it would if
the printer were connected via USB to your computer
directly. The disadvantage is that only one computer can
access the connected device at a time.
Select the printer in the main menu and then click
Connect. The connection to the printer is established and
the driver is linked again. The printer can then be used.
After installation is complete, you can add the printer to
the list of automatic printers. This means that the
connection to the printer must no longer be made
manually. To do this, click Automatic printer in the Control
Center and then Set auto-connect printer. Select the
printer from the list and click Apply.
Please remember to disconnect. As long as you are
connected, no other user can access the printer.
5.2 Network printers wither LPR
To use this function, you must activate the LPR printer
protocol under Confi gure server/Supported protocols.

displayed in the main window after the MFS name.)
Then click Next.
Under Device Type, select Custom and then click
Settings. In the new window, choose LPR. Under LPR
Settings, enter USB1_LQ in the fi eld Queue Name.
Click OK and then Finish to close the wizard.
Installation of the printer port is now complete.
Next, choose the driver (which has already been
installed) for the connected printer. To do this, the
Add Printer Wizard opens once the installation of
the printer port is complete. Follow the instructions
provided by the wizard.
