Printing Through SMB

4.1 Installation Procedure for Printing
through SMB
Server Message Block (SMB) is a protocol for sharing files or printers on a Windows OS.
This section explains the installation procedure for connecting a printer to the Windows
network through SMB.

System Configuration

As the printer supports SMB protocol, you can print by sending print data directly to the
printer on the same network without going through the server.
You can use either NetBEUI or TCP/IP, or even both as the transport protocol for SMB. You
will need to set up the IP address on the printer and the computer if you are using TCP/IP.
