Windows Peer to Peer Printing Setup
Peer to peer printing allows Windows 95/98 computers to print directly to a networked printer without an
intervening file server. Below are the main features of peer to peer printing.
•
Runs on Windows 95/98 and workstations or servers “out of the box.”
• Runs on networks with or without a NetWare file server.
• Implements peer to peer direct printing between Windows computers and networked printers.
• You can configure network printers the same way you configure printers directly attached to a computer.
note:
In isolated, serverless networks, the NIC should be used with its factory default settings.
IP vs. IPX Peer to Peer Printing
Your network configuration will dictate whether IP or IPX is more appropriate. However, we recommend you use
IP peer to peer printing if possible.
For IP Peer to Peer Printing: You must install P2P-IP . This protocol allows you to access the network printer
over an IP network. The Microsoft TCP/IP protocol stack must also be installed and properly configured on
your workstation. The network and the network print servers must support IP.
For IPX Peer to Peer Printing:
You must install PeerToPeer-IPX . It is not necessary to have a NetWare file
server on the network to use this IPX protocol.
First, Install Peer to Peer Software
Follow these steps to install the correct software.
1.
Insert the 4400 xxxx CD into the drive.
2. In Windows 95/98 , press the Start button and select Run .
3. At Run, type: xxxx???
<drive>:\IP-P2P\SETUP.EXE
(for IP), or,
<drive>:\IPX-P2P\SETUP.EXE
(for IPX)
4. Then click OK . Follow the Install wizard prompts. When installation is complete, click OK .
Second, Add the Peer to Peer Printer in Windows
1. In Windows 95/98, press the Start button, select Settings , then select Printers .
2. In the Printers window, double-click Add Printer . This launches the Add Printer wizard which prompts you to
make selections.
note:
SuperScript 4400 printer drivers are provided on the Solutions CD that comes with the 4400 printer.
When the Add Printer wizard asks how the printer is attached, select Local printer .
Specify NEC as the Manufacturer and NEC SuperScript 4400 as the Printer.
3. Your peer to peer network printer will be listed under local printer ports and identified using the NIC serial
number. For example,
NEC_911499
.
Select your new peer to peer printer.
4. Continue responding to the Add Printer wizard until the process is complete.
Moving a Peer to Peer Printer
If you move your printer to a new network, you must restore the NIC to its factory defaults (see page xx). If you
have changed your printer’s name, it will revert to its original factory name.
