The Windows 95 and Windows 98 operating systems feature a built-in peer-to-peer
networking capability that allows network printing without a central file server.
Monarch print servers support this capability using either the Direct Mode IPX or
TCP/IP protocols.

To use a peer-to-peer print queue from a Windows 95/98 workstation, first make
sure that the following items are configured in the Network Control Panel:
♦ Client for Microsoft Networks
♦ IPX/SPX-Compatible Protocol or TCP/IP Protocol (TCP/IP requires V3.46 or
later firmware and is not supported on older versions of JetAdmin; if you are
using TCP/IP, both your PC and print server must be configured with a valid IP
address; refer to chapter 3 for information on setting the print server IP address
with XAdmin32)
♦ HP JetAdmin (only required in the Control Panel if you have a version of
JetAdmin earlier than V2.33)
♦ The appropriate network adapter driver (for example, 3Com EtherLink III)
If you want to use a version of JetAdmin later than 2.0, you must install JetAdmin
on your PC. JetAdmin is included on the Windows 95 distribution CD, or it can be
downloaded from the HP web site. The JetAdmin setup program provides a step-
by-step guide through the installation process.
NOTE: JetAdmin 3.3 or later requires XJet firmware version 3.58 or higher.
Windows 98 requires either JetAdmin V2.54 (this version can be installed
from the Microsoft Windows 98 CD by running the SETUP.EXE file in the
DRIVERS/PRINTERS/JETADMIN/DISK1/
directory) or V3.30 or later
(available on the HP web site).
