Setup from the Front Panel and WebSetup

Service Setup tab

The Service Setup tab is used to set Windows Printing Service options.
Windows Printing Service enables the Microsoft SMB protocol, which
supports peer-to-peer printing, also known as Windows (WINS) or SMB
printing.

Enable Windows Printing Service— Enable this option to enable SMB
(Server Message Block), the file and printer sharing protocol built into
Windows. Enabling SMB allows the KX-P8420 to be listed on the network
so that Windows clients can print to a particular print connection (Hold,
Print, or Direct) on the KX-P8420 without any other networking software.
For information on how to set up a Windows client for Windows printing, see

pages 73

and

76

.

Windows (SMB) printing runs over TCP/IP, so TCP/IP must be configured
on all the KX-P8420 and on workstations that use Windows printing.

Server Name—The server name is the name that will appear on the
network.

NOTES:

Lowercase characters are not allowed.

Each printer should have a different server name, if several KX-P8420
printers are connected to the same network.

Comment—Server comments (optional) can contain information about the
printer.
