helps you to try to nd your printer. If you have a rewall in operation; you may have to disable it temporarily
in order to nd the printer. You also have the options of searching for the printer by its hostname, IP address
or MAC address.
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
Sending a job to print on page 75 for alternative ways of printing.
