About Sharing the Printer on a
Network
If you work in a networked environment, you can connect your
printer to the network.
Locally-Shared Printer
You can connect the printer directly to a selected computer,
which is called the “host computer” on the network. The printer
can then be shared by other users on the network through a
Windows 9x/Me/XP/NT 4.0/2000 network printer connection.
Network-connected Printer
ML-2551N and ML-2552W printers have the built-in network
interface. For more information about connecting your printer to
the network, see page 2.12.
To use a ML-2550 printer as a network printer, you need to install
an optional network interface card in your printer. For a
ML-2551N printer, you can replace the network interface card to
one supporting the wireless LAN interface. See page F.6 for
information about installing the card.
Printing Across a Network
Whether the printer is locally connected or network-connected,
you need to install the ML-2550 series printer software on each
computer that will print documents to the printer.
