SETUP IN A WINDOWS ENVIRONMENT

USING THE MACHINE AS A SHARED PRINTER

If you are going to use the machine as a shared printer on a Windows network with the printer driver or the PC-Fax
driver installed on a print server, follow the steps below to install the printer driver or the PC-Fax driver on the client
computers.
• Ask your network administrator for the server name and printer name of the machine on the network.
Note
• For the procedure for configuring settings on the print server, see the operation manual or the Help file of the
operating system. The "print server" explained here is a computer that is connected directly to the machine,
and "clients" are other computers connected to the same network as the print server.
• Install the same printer driver on client computers as the printer driver that is installed on the print server.
When the software selection screen appears in step 6 of "OPENING THE SOFTWARE SELECTION SCREEN
