Configuring Windows Firewall

If you are using an operating system equipped with Windows Firewall, such as Windows
XP Service Pack 2, as a print server, you need to configure Windows Firewall to allow
communication with the client computers.

Use the following procedure to ensure that Windows Firewall does not block this
communication.

If you installed the CAPT software from CD-ROM Setup, a [Warning] dialog box was
displayed.

- If you clicked [Yes], Windows Firewall was configured to allow communication with the

client computers.

- If you clicked [No], however, Windows Firewall was configured to block communication

with the client computers, and you will need to use the following method to clear that
block.

1. Select [Control Panel] from the [Start] menu, then click [Network and Internet

Connections]

➞ [Windows Firewall].

2. On the [Exceptions] sheet in the [Windows Firewall] dialog box, place a checkmark

next to [Canon LBP5200 RPC Server Process], and click the [OK] button.

If you installed the CAPT software by any method other than CD-ROM Setup, you need
to use the utility software to configure Windows Firewall to unblock communication with
the client computers. (See p. 8-14)
