The printer connected to the Printer port on the FR3004LC/FR3002AL router is
referred to as a shared printer. On each computer sharing the printer, open the
Printers window in the My Computer menu. If the printer has not been installed,
click on the Add Printer icon to choose the appropriate printer and follow the on-
screen instructions.

Perform the following steps to configure the shared
printer:

1.

Locate the icon of your shared printer. For example,
the HP LaserJet 6L. Click the mouse’s right button
on that icon, and then select the Properties item.

2.

Select the Details tab. Choose the PRT:
(FriendlyNET Print Server)
from the drop down list.
Be sure that the printer driver item is configured to the correct driver for your
shared printer. Click on Port Settings.

3.

Enter the LAN IP address of the router (Default 192.168.123.254), and then
click the OK button. Make sure that all settings mentioned above are cor-
rect, then click the OK button.
