Preparing for a Network Connection

You can use your printer as a network printer with Windows NT 4.0 using the Multi Direct Print
application, and TCP/IP or NetBEUI protocols. This chapter explains how to configure your
printer and Windows NT.
Preparation: The Multi Direct Print Application supports the TCP/IP protocol and the NetBEUI
protocol. Consult with your network administrator before selecting the protocol.
Limitation: When you use the NetBEUI protocol, you cannot print to a printer which is located
on the other side of a router.
