Taurus LAN User Guide

USB Printer

The Taurus LAN is equipped with additional USB ports and a printer server. Connect your
USB printer to one of the USB connectors on the Taurus LAN and enable the printer
server to share the printer among other workstations on the same local network.

1. Connect your USB printer to one of the USB ports on the Taurus LAN and turn both

devices on.

2. Login to make sure the printer server is enabled and the printer is recognised.

Installation on a PC

Printing via the shared network printer will be slower than when the printer is connected
directly to the USB port on the computer. After you press the Print button, please wait for
the printer to receive the data.

1. On your PC, go to Start and select “Printers and Faxes”.

2. Go to File and select “Add Printer” to bring up the printer setup wizard.

3. Click on Next to start the wizard, then select “A network printer…” and hit Next once

more.
