5.1.3 Setting Up IPX Peer-to-Peer Printing

IPX Peer-to-Peer printing allows you to print to a network printer for networks without a
file server or for networks where you do not want to use the server for printing. Use peer-

To set up IPX Peer-to-Peer printing, choose Start -> IPX-P2P -> IPX-P2P. The IPX
peer-to-peer printing setup screen appears. The following table describes the fields and
