Wireless Print Server
Configuration
This chapter provides an overview of the configuration process.
Overview
The Wireless Print Server is designed to support many different platforms, and the
configuration required would depend upon the environment in which it is installed.
• The Wireless Print Server usually requires configuration, but if there's a DHCP server on
your network, then the device is just plug-and-play. A Windows-based setup Wizard is
also provided on the CD-ROM to simplify this task.
• PCs wishing to use the printer attached to the Wireless Print Server always require
configuration. See Chapter 4- Client Configuration for details.
• If you wish to use a queue-based printing system using Windows NT Server/Windows
2000/Windows XP, the Network Server must be configured as detailed in Appendix B -
Network Server Configuration. However, it is not necessary to use a Network Server-based
queue; client PCs can print directly to the Wireless Print Server using the Peer-to-peer
Printing installed by the User setup option on the CD-ROM.

• Windows-based Wizard - see below for details.
