Printer Sharing with an HP JetDirect 70X

When you use an HP JetDirect 70X Home Print Server, there are
several advantages:

• You can connect the HP JetDirect 70X to any phone jack,

regardless of its location in your home. The phone jack must be
on the same phone line as the PCs in the network.

• Only the PC that has the file to be printed, the home print server,

and the printer, need to be turned on.

• Scanning and faxing functions of HP All-in-One products are

available to networked PCs.

The following illustrates how you might use a home print server to
share a printer in your home.

All of the PCs connected to the phone line in this home can now
share the printer in the home office.

Different Setups are Possible

If your home has only one telephone line, the same line is used for
voice phone calls, connecting to the Internet, and networking PCs
over the home phoneline network.

If your home has two telephone lines, you must connect the HP
JetDirect 70X to the same telephone line used by the home
phoneline network.
