Introduction
This chapter guides you through the installation of your printer in Windows
environments. The two most common ways to connect your printer to a PC
are using either a local connection (parallel or USB interface) or using a
network connection.
Local Connections
A local connection is accomplished by connecting the workstation and the
printer directly by means of a parallel or USB interface. These interfaces
support only a one-to-one connection, which means that the workstation
exclusively “owns” the connection to the printer.
Some network
environments allow the
access of a printer locally
attached to one of the
workstations. Although
all users attached to the
network may use the
printer, the (print) data
flow to that particular
workstation may affect its
normal use. In most of
these cases, this
workstation is exclusively
needed as a print server
and cannot be used as a
normal workstation anymore.
