In Windows environments, network printers can be configured for direct printing or shared printing. Both network printing
methods require the installation of the printer software and the creation of a network printer port.
Supported Printer Drivers
Custom drivers are available on the
Drivers and Utilities
CD.
Supported Network Printer Ports
Microsoft
®
Standard TCP/IP port—Windows Vista™, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, and Windows 2000
Printer network ports—Windows Vista, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows NT, and Windows 2000
For basic printer functionality, install printer software, and use a system network printer port, such as a Line Printer
Remote (LPR) or a standard TCP/IP port. The printer software and port let you maintain a consistent user interface for use
with all the printers on the network. Using a custom network port provides enhanced functionality, such as printer status
alerts.
