60 Network Administration Guide — Setting up Windows Print Server
Setting up the Clients
Each client of a Windows print server is already using a network protocol to communi-
cate with the server. Each client can print to this equipment if the printer has been
shared by a Windows print server. In that case the client does not have to use the same
network protocol to connect to the Windows print server as the server uses to communi-
cate with the equipment.
To set up printing on client computers, connect to the print server and select the shared
printer. Right-click the printer and select [Open]. When prompted, click [Yes] to have
Windows set up the printer.
After clients have selected the printer, they can choose it from the Print Setup, Page
Setup, or Print dialog box of their application. Clients can change printing options for
their own job, but printer properties are grayed and not available for changing. When a
client prints a document, the job is transmitted to the Windows print server, and from
there to this equipment.
The job is listed in the Print Manager on the client computer, and the administrator can
track it in the Print Manager on the Windows print server.
