Installing the DocuColor as a shared PostScript printer

The first step in creating a printer is installing the Windows NT PostScript printer
driver and the DocuColor PPD (PostScript printer description), which gives your
applications access to printer features.
The installation instructions in Getting Started can be used for every workstation that
will print directly and independently to the DocuColor. However, if you are an
administrator running Windows NT Server or Windows NT Workstation, you can
also create a printer and share it with clients on the network. When a printer is shared,
clients who are not able or are not given permission to establish an independent
network connection to the DocuColor have to print through the server.
You can specify sharing of the printer during installation of the DocuColor printer
files. If you have not yet installed the DocuColor printer files on the Windows NT
print server computer, do so now following the instructions in the Getting Started.
During installation, enter the information necessary to share the DocuColor.
If you have already installed the DocuColor printer files on the computer you are using
as a Windows NT print server, use the following procedure to share the DocuColor.
