Managing Print Jobs and Network Printing

Network Printing on a PC
You can use your printer on a network under Windows NT,
Windows 95, or another network operating system. First you
need to set up your printer using either the network’s printer
setup functions or your printer software’s built-in network
support.
If you’re setting up your printer for Windows NT, see the
instructions below. For other network operating systems, see
your network documentation for instructions or use the printer
software’s network support, as described on page 4-11.
Connecting to the Printer on
Windows NT 4.0 Systems
If you installed an optional network interface card in your
printer and installed the printer software as described in the
Quick Setup booklet, follow the steps below to connect the
remote printer to each system on the network using the TCP/IP
(or LPR) protocol.
1. Follow the instructions to configure the interface card in
the manual that came with the card.
2. To connect the printer to a TCP/IP (or LPR) port, open
the Control Panel and select
Printers.
3. Right-click the
EPSON Stylus COLOR 1520 icon, then
select
Properties.
4. Select the
Ports tab and click the Add Port button.
5. Select
LPR Port in the Port list. Then click New Port.
6. Type the IP address of the card in the first box and type
a short name for the printer in the second box. Then
click
OK.
7. Click
Close.
Note:
If you need to install a
network interface board
in your printer, see
Appendix A for
instructions.
Note:
If you connected the
printer directly to a
Windows NT server or
you’re using a different
network protocol, see
your Windows NT
documentation for
instructions on
configuring your printer
for the network. If you’re
using an optional
interface card, also see
the documentation that
came with the card.
