Configuring for Printing from a Computer

When using the machine as a network printer, you can configure the protocols and ports used for printing. Before
starting, make sure that you have completed all basic preparations for printing. For more information, see the Printer
Driver Installation Guide.
● Printing protocols are rules for delivering document data created on a computer to the machine. You can
select them according to the printing purpose or the network environment.
● Ports are gateways for passing printing data from a computer to the machine. Incorrect port settings are
often the cause when documents cannot be printed from a network computer.
Setting Up a Print Server
By setting up a print server on the network, you can reduce the load on the computer that you print from. This
also makes it possible to install printer drivers over the network, which saves the trouble of installing the drivers
on each computer by using the DVD-ROM. For information about how to set up a print server, see the Printer
Driver Installation Guide.
