Introduction
After Installing the Printer
The following tasks need to be performed after you have set up the printer:
■ Installing the printer driver
The printer driver is a piece of software that is needed when you are printing from
application software. Settings related to printing can be configured using the printer driver.
The procedure for installing the printer driver varies depending on your environment.
• If you are printing with the printer connected to the computer using a USB cable (See p.
3-5)
• If you have installed the optional network board and the computer is connected to the
printer over a LAN, refer to the user manual supplied with your network operating system
and the user manual supplied with the AXIS 1611 for details about printing.
■ Using a computer to share the printer on a network (See p. 3-58)
If the printer is shared over a network from one computer and you want to use it from
other computers on the network, you first need to configure the computer settings and
install the printer driver on the client computers.
Each Time You Print
The following tasks need to be performed each time you print:
■ Specifying print settings
The printer paper size, original document size, number of copies, etc. are configured
using the printer driver. If these settings are not configured correctly, you will not be able
to achieve the expected results.
■ Printing
Select the printing option from the menu of the application software you are using. As the
method for printing varies depending on the application, refer to the individual users
manuals of each application.
