Printer sharing considerations
●
Any other users sharing your directly connected printer will be able to send print jobs, but will not be
able to receive information from the printer—which affects alerts, status reports, paper management,
administration and troubleshooting.
●
Any other users sharing your directly connected printer will be unable to use the printer's own print
preview facility, although the application's print preview will still be available. See
Preview a print
on page 57.
TIP: The best way to share the printer over a network is to connect the printer not to any computer, but to
the network. See
Connect a computer to the printer by network (Windows) on page 14.
Uninstall the printer software (Windows)
Use the Control Panel to uninstall the software, in the same way as you can uninstall any other software.
Connect a computer to the printer by network (Mac OS X)
You can connect your printer to a network under Mac OS X by using the following methods:
●
Bonjour
●
TCP/IP
NOTE: The printer does not support AppleTalk.
The following instructions apply if you intend to print from software applications using a printer driver. See
Printing on page 50 for alternative ways of printing.
Before you begin, check your equipment:
●
The printer should be set up and on.
●
The Ethernet switch or router should be on and functioning correctly.
●
The printer and the computer should be connected to the network (see
Connect the printer to your
network on page 13).
Now you can proceed to install the printer software and connect to your printer.
