Stop

Program menu.
Monitor a Printer
Select this from the Tool Tray menu to monitor any 4200N
PrintAgent printer on your network.
Add Printers
Once the PrintAgent software is installed, you can add any
4200N printer to your system. Select Add Printer , enter the
URL of the printer and click Install .
If you get a message box indicating that the PrintAgent could
not access the printer, first verify that the URL you typed is
correct. An easy way to verify a correct URL is to try adding
the printer again.
If the URL was correct and PrintAgent still cannot establish
communication, click on the Network Properties button in
the Add Printer dialog box and check your proxy settings. If
you are trying to reach a printer using a proxy server, you
must check the Default Proxy host and port box, then enter
your proxy host and port. To reach a printer without using a
proxy, you must either de-select the Default Proxy host and
port check box, or enter the URL or domain name in the No
Proxy For text area.
If PrintAgent is still unable to establish communication with
the printer, go to the Printer's Home Page using your Web
browser. If the proxy settings are correct in the browser and
the Web page is not found, the problem is with the printer,
and you should contact the network administrator.
Remove Printers
To remove a PrintAgent printer, select Remove Printer . In
the Printer Selection dialog box that appears, select the printer
you wish to remove and press OK. Reset the PrintAgent for
the removal to take effect.
