This section explains the installation procedure for connecting a printer to a Windows
network through SMB.
System configuration
As the machine supports SMB protocol, you can send print data directly to the machine
on the same network without going through the server.
You can use TCP/IP. You will need to set up the IP address on the machine and the
computer using TCP/IP.
NOTE: You can make SMB settings through CentreWare Internet Services.
