INSTALLING THE PRINTER DRIVER / PC-FAX DRIVER
USING THE MACHINE AS A SHARED PRINTER
If you are going to use the machine as a shared printer on a Windows network with the printer driver or the PC-Fax driver
installed on a print server, follow the steps below to install the printer driver or the PC-Fax driver on the client computers.
When the software selection screen appears in step 6 of "OPENING THE SOFTWARE SELECTION SCREEN (FOR
ALL SOFTWARE)" (page 8), perform the steps below.
1 Click the [Printer Driver] button.
To install the PC-Fax driver, click the [Utility Software]
button and then click the [PC-Fax Driver] button.
2 Click the [Custom installation] button.
3 Select [Use an existing port] and click
the [Next] button.
4 Select the printer name (configured as a
shared printer).
(1) Select the printer name (configured as a
shared printer on a print server) from the list.
If you are using Windows XP/Server 2003, you can
also click the [Add Network Port] button displayed
below the list and select the printer to be shared by
browsing the network in the window that appears.
(2) Click the [Next] button.
5 Perform steps 5 through 12 on page 15
to continue the installation.
In the printer driver selection screen, be sure to select the
same type of printer driver as the printer driver installed
on the print server.
This completes the installation.
If you installed the PS printer driver or the PPD driver, the PS
display fonts can be installed from the "PRINTER UTILITIES"
CD-ROM that accompanies the PS3 expansion kit*. See
"INSTALLING THE PS DISPLAY FONTS" (page 30).
* Depending on the models, the PS3 expansion kit is
installed as standard.
• Ask your network administrator for the server name and printer name of the machine on the network.
• For the procedure for configuring settings on the print server, see the operation manual or the Help file of the operating
system. The "print server" explained here is a computer that is connected directly to the machine, and "clients" are other
computers connected to the same network as the print server.
• Install the same printer driver on client computers as the printer driver that is installed on the print server.
If the shared printer does not appear in the list, check
the settings on the print server.
