Installing the DocuColor 40 CP as a shared PostScript printer

The first step in creating a printer is installing the Windows NT PostScript printer
driver and the current DocuColor 40 CP PPD (PostScript printer description), which
gives your applications access to some printer features.The installation instructions in
Getting Started can be used for every workstation that will print directly and
independently to the DocuColor 40 CP. However, if you are an administrator running
Windows NT 4.0 Server or Windows NT 4.0 Workstation, you can also create a
printer and share it with Windows NT 4.0 clients on the network. When a printer is
shared, Windows NT 4.0 clients who are not able or are not given permission to
establish an independent network connection to the DocuColor 40 CP can still print
through the server.
You can specify sharing of the printer during installation of the DocuColor 40 CP
printer files. If you have not yet installed the DocuColor 40 CP printer files on the
Windows NT 4.0 print server computer, do so now following the instructions in
Getting Started. During installation, enter the information necessary to share the
DocuColor 40 CP.
