Printer Sharing - Canon IMAGECLASS D800 Series Printer Manual

Printer Sharing

By using your imageCLASS D800 series machine on a network, users can share the device for
printing. Printer sharing with the imageCLASS D800 series requires that both the print server
and the client devices are using Windows 95 or later, or Windows NT 4.0 or later. The print
server and client do not need to use the same operating system, and it is possible to print from
a Windows 95/98/Me client to a Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/Server 2003 print server, or vice
versa.
You can start printing simply by starting the server, even if the server was not running when
the client was started.
If the server is running on Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/Server 2003, you can print, even if no
one is logged into the server. Please note that there is no status display on the server when no
2
one is logged in. The status display is shown on the client.
