Network Printing using Microsoft
Windows
Overview ________________________
This chapter provides guidelines on how to print over the
network from various Microsoft Windows platforms. There are
numerous ways of printing from Windows and the exact set-up
will vary depending upon your environment. There are also
numerous versions of Windows, which can be configured as
either a client, server or both.
Although there are many variants of Windows, the principles
of network printing are the same. Microsoft provides on-line
help with all of their operating systems and this is a good
reference point for the exact details of each configuration
option within Windows.
Installing a Network Printer__________
There are two ways to set up a Network Printer in Windows:
• Install automatically, using the Oki Driver Installer
• Install it yourself using the Add Printer Wizard
Using the Oki Driver Installer
The Oki Driver Installer program searches for compatible
printers on the Network, then installs and configures the
printer drivers with the correct port settings automatically.
Using the Oki Driver Installer program, you can install to the
following networked printers:
• Directly connected (peer-to-peer) printers via TCP/IP
