Configuring Printing for UNIX Clients
Troubleshooting the Appliance
Installing printers on each client computer is required in order for clients to be able to print using the
appliance.
Note: Hewlett-Packard recommends verifying installation with one client computer before configuring
more clients. This will confirm operation. It is easier to troubleshoot settings on one client computer than
on many.
Installing Printers on Microsoft Clients (the Microsoft Point and Print
feature)
Use one of the following procedures to install printers on each client computer (this feature is only
supported on an x86 PC running Microsoft Windows 9x, ME, NT, or 2K):
Check the following:
The appliance is installed on the network and properly configured.
❍
Each client workstation is connected to the network.
❍
The printers are set up and turned on.
❍
1.
On the client workstation, click Tools in Microsoft's Explorer and select "Find… Computer". Enter
the name or IP address of the appliance. Or, find the appliance in the Network Neighborhood.
2.
Open the Printers folder.
3.
Right-click on the printer to install.
4.
Select Install from the drop-down menu.
5.
For Windows NT and 2000 clients, driver installation is complete. For Windows 95, 98, and ME
clients, a wizard will ask several things (for example, "Do you want to print from DOS", etc.).
6.
Or, add the printer using the following steps:
Make sure that the appliance is installed and that the printers are set up and turned on. Be sure the
