Access a Shared Printer

When a printer is connected to the Ericsson W21 USB interface,
information about the device is displayed on the Sharing page.

When you connect a USB printer directly to your PC, the printer device type
and brand will normally be automatically detected and a printer driver
assigned and installed. This is not the case when using a network shared
USB printer connected to your Ericsson W21.

On the PCs that should use the printer, install the correct printer driver
compatible with the corresponding PCs operating system. The printer driver
is found either on the discs that were shipped with your printer or by
downloading it from the manufacturers web page.
