Setting Up For Shared Printing - Fuji Xerox DocuPrint CM215 Series User Manual

Setting Up for Shared Printing

You can share your new printer on the network using the Software Pack CD-ROM that shipped with
your printer, or using Windows Point and Print or peer-to-peer method.
This section describes Point and Print and peer-to-peer methods. Configure the printer sharing
settings on the server computer, and then install its driver on all the client computers that use the
shared printer using Point and Print or peer-to-peer method. Using either of the methods, however,
you will not be able to use features such as the
installed from the Software Pack CD-ROM.
NOTE:
• You need to purchase a Ethernet cable separately for shared printing.
