Using Your Printer on a 

Network 

If you work in a networked environment, the printer can be 
shared by other users on the network.

This chapter includes:
• About Sharing the Printer on a Network
• Setting Up a Network-Connected Printer(CLP-300N only)
• Using  SetIP  program

N

OTE

: If you are a CLP-300N user, you can only connect your 

printer to a network locally, for use via a single computer.

About Sharing the Printer on a 
Network

If you work in a networked environment, you can connect your 
printer to the network.

Locally-Shared Printer

You can connect the printer directly to a selected computer, 
which is called the “host computer” on the network. The printer 
can then be shared by other users on the network through a 
Windows 98/Me/XP/NT 4.0/2000/2003 network printer 
connection.

For details about sharing the printer locally, see the Software 
Section
.

Wired Network-connected Printer (CLP-300N only)

 

The CLP-300N printer has a built-in network interface. For more 
information about connecting your printer to a network, see 2.6.

Printing Across a Network

Whether the printer is locally connected or network-connected, 
you need to install the CLP-300 series printer software on each 
computer that prints documents using the printer.

Setting Up a Network-Connected 
Printer(CLP-300N only)

You have to set up the network protocols on the printer to use 
it as your network printer. Setting protocols can be 
accomplished by using the supplied network program. Please 
refer to SetIP

Supported Operating Systems

N

OTE

: The operating systems supported by the network card 

may be different than the operating systems supported by the 
printer. The following table shows the network environments 
supported by the printer. 

• TCP/IP: Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol
• DHCP: Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
• BOOTP: Bootstrap Protocol

Using SetIP program

This program is for the network IP setting using the MAC 
address which is the hardware serial number of the network 
printer card or interface. Especially, it is for the network 
administrator to set several network IPs at the same time. 

1

Insert the driver CD provided along with your machine.

2

Start Windows Explorer and open the X drive. (X 
represents your CD-ROM drive.)

3

Double click Application > SetIP.

4

Open the language folder you want to use.

5

Double click Setup.exe to install this program. 

6

From the Windows Start menu, select Programs > 
Samsung Network Printer Utilities > SetIP.
