Point-to-point printing (LexIP)
You can print from any Windows 95, Windows 98 or Windows NT workstation
directly to a Lexmark printer located anywhere on the IP network. No server is
required.
These are the Windows 95/98
instructions. Instructions for
Windows NT are on the
Drivers, MarkVision and
Utilities CD.
1
Install the TCP/IP software component on the workstation. Look on the
Drivers, MarkVision and Utilities CD for the software. (Hint: Do a custom
install to add network support, and select TCP/IP.)

Create a printer object on the workstation:
a
Click Start, Settings, Printers, Add Printer.

When prompted, select Local Printer (not Network). This gives you

Lexmark printer drivers from
our web site located at:
www.lexmark.com.

Select any port (LPT, COM, or FILE) for the initial setup. Later, you will
