Before You Start
1. Obtain the print driver for your computer's operating system. See Obtaining Drivers on page 13.
2. Print a Configuration Report. See Configuration Report on page 22.
3. On the Configuration Report, verify that SMB and TCP/IP are enabled. Verify that the workgroup's
default name is Workgroup, or a valid, 15 character maximum, workgroup name. Also note the
printer's SMB Host Name (which assures the uniqueness of the printer's name within the
Workgroup). To enable SMB, see
Microsoft (NetBIOS over IP) Networks on page 52. Modify the
name of the Workgroup, or printer's name (SMB Host name) using CentreWare Internet Services.
4. Make sure to configure the DNS/WINS Server(s) for NetBIOS name to IP address resolution. Then
provide the printer with the addresses of the Servers. For more information, see TCP/IP Protocol
Configuration on page 43.
An Alternate Procedure for Setting up NetBIOS over IP Peer to Peer Printing
Note: Experienced System Administrators can use the following procedure:
1. On Windows XP computers, from the
Properties
selection of the
Local Area Connection
icon,
verify that the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) is installed. Select the protocol and click Properties . Verify
that TCP/IP is configured for use of the DNS Server. Click the
Advanced
button and select the
DNS
tab. Verify that the check box labeled Register this connection's addresses in DNS is checked. Select
the
WINS
Tab and verify that the NetBIOS setting is set to either Use NetBIOS Setting from the
DHCP Server, or that NetBIOS is enabled over TCP/IP. Click Cancel twice and verify that the Client
for Microsoft Networks is installed. Finally, with your Operating System Installer Disk readily
available, through
Add/Remove Programs and Add/Remove Windows Components , select Other
Network File and Print Services
. Click
Details
, check the box for
Print Services for UNIX
, and click
OK and Next .
2. When prompted for the Name or address of the server providing LPD enter the printer's SMB Host
Name
as seen on the printer's Configuration Report.
3. When prompted for a queue name, enter your preference of an easily-identified name for this
printer.
4. Install the print driver on your computer and, when prompted to select a port to print through,
select the LPR port that you just created.
5. Print a Test Print to verify successful communication with the printer.
