Using the Machine as a Shared Printer on a
Network

If the computer to which the machine is connected is on a network, the
machine can be used as a shared printer by other computers on the network.

To use the machine as a shared printer on a network, you must:

1. Configure settings on the computer (the server) that is directly connected to
the machine.

2. Install the printer driver using Add Printer on all other computers (the
clients) that will use the machine as a printer.

If you have not yet installed the software on the server and connected the
machine to the server with a USB cable, do so as explained in the previous
section (beginning on page 23) before completing the procedures in this
section.

Note: The clients (the computers that are not connected directly to the
machine) must be running the same version of Windows or a version that is
older than the server.
