To use the print server, install the printer driver by selecting "Network printer server", and then select the
Windows 2000/XP/Vista, or Windows Server 2003/2003 R2/2008 shared printer.
This section assumes that the client has already been configured to communicate with a Windows 2000/

before the client is set up and configured correctly.

R2/2008, you must have an account that has Manage Printers permission. Log on as an
Administrators or Power Users group member.
• If you print with a print server connected to the printer using the SmartDeviceMonitor port, Recovery
Printing and Parallel Printing cannot be used from the client.

notification functions of SmartDeviceMonitor may not be used with the client.
