Setting Up Print Server
With a print server, you can reduce the load on the computer that you print from. The print server also makes it
possible to install the drivers on each computer over the network, which saves you the trouble of installing the drivers
on each computer by using the provided CD-ROM/DVD-ROM. To set up a computer on the network as a print server,
configure the settings for sharing the printer.
●
To perform the following procedure, log in to your computer with an administrator account.
●
You may be unable to install drivers over the network depending on the operating system and the bit
architecture (32-bit or 64-bit) of the print server and client computers.
●
When implementing a print server in a domain environment, consult your Network Administrator.
