ULL RINTING
NEC PrintAgent's Pull Printing capability allows you to pull
documents from internet sites or servers. You can also print
without running your applications or using a printer driver,
thus reducing the CPU cycles required for printing. To do this
a Pull Printing server must be set up. If you are a system
administrator, go to page 53 for instructions on how to
configure a Pull Printing server.

Pull Printing from Your Desktop

Once the Pull Printing Server is running, any local user can
Pull Print just by browsing to the Pull Printing page. To pull
print from your desktop, you must have
• Microsoft's Internet Explorer 5.0 or Netscape
Communicator 4.6 and above with Java 1.1 support.
