Installing the printer on a network (Windows)
What is network printing?
In Windows environments, network printers can be configured for direct printing or shared printing. Both network printing
methods require the installation of printer software and the creation of a network port.
Printing method Example
IP printing
• Printer is connected directly to the network using a network cable, such as an Ethernet cable.
• Printer software is typically installed on each network computer.
Shared printing
• Printer is connected to one of the computers on the network using a local cable, such as a
USB or parallel cable.
• Printer software is installed on the computer attached to the printer.
• During software installation, the printer is set up to be “shared” so that other network
computers can print to it.
Installing the printer on an Ethernet network (Windows only)
Before installing the printer on an Ethernet network, make sure the initial setup of the printer is complete, and the printer is
connected to an active Ethernet network.
