Be aware that Network Ports Quick Setup screen can only detect and configure all
print servers on the same network. It cannot search and configure print servers on
other subnets across network segments. You must use the Remote Ports Utility
described in Section 4.3.2 to manage remote (across network segments) print
servers.

ORTS
The Remote Ports utility offers a convenient way for you to manage and add
printer ports to the remote print server. From this utility's assistant, you can print
to other print servers outside the subnet across network segments. However, this
function only supports the TCP/IP network protocol.
1. Run the Remote Ports utility. See Figure 4-32.
2. Press Add, then type in the print server's name and IP address, and select the
port number. See Figure 4-33. Or, click on Delete to delete a port, or Exit to
exit from the Remote Port Setup screen.
