Install drivers for network printing
• Browse Network Neighborhood. Find the host name of the
server and look for the shared name you assigned to the
MFP.
Step 3: Install the print driver (or subset) on network
clients
Using the point and print method
Note: This method is
usually the best use of
system resources. The
server handles driver
modifications and the print
job processing. This lets
network clients return to
programs much faster.
With this method, a subset of driver information is copied from the
server to the client computer. This is just enough information to send
a print job to the MFP.
1 On the Windows desktop of the client computer, double-click
Network Neighborhood.
2 Locate the host name of the server computer, and then double-
click the host name.
3 Right-click the shared MFP name, and then click Install.
4 Wait a few minutes for the driver information to be copied from
the server computer to the client computer, and for a new MFP
object to be added to the Printers folder. The time this takes
varies, based on network traffic and other factors.
5 Close Network Neighborhood.
6 Print a test page to verify MFP installation.
