SMB Environments
Server Message Block (SMB) is a protocol for sharing files or printers on Windows OS.
This section explains the installation procedure for connecting a printer to a Windows
network through SMB.
System configuration
As the machine supports SMB protocol, you can send print data directly to the machine
on the same network without going through the server.
You can use either NetBEUI, TCP/IP, or even both as the transport protocol for SMB.
You will need to set up the IP address on the machine and the computer if you are using
TCP/IP.
NOTE:
Windows XP/Windows Server 2003/Windows Vista do not support NetBEUI.
NOTE:
You can make SMB settings through CentreWare Internet Services. For more
information on how to make SMB settings, refer to
CentreWare Internet Services on
page 147
.
Target computers
The following computers support printing through SMB.
NOTE:
NetBEUI is not recommended by Microsoft to be used as a protocol in new
networks. It is recommended that this protocol is only used in small networks where
existing legacy clients require it.
