Access a Shared Printer

When a printer is connected to the USB port on the Ericsson W3x,
information about the device is displayed on the Sharing page

If 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 W3x.

On the PCs that should use the printer, install the correct printer driver
compatible with the 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.

The Ericsson W3x supports two protocols for printing: Samba and RAW.
The protocol that is used may vary depending on printer and manufacturer.
It also affects how to access the printer via the Ericsson W3x.

The following sections include instructions on how to access a shared
printer from a PC using Windows XP or 2000.
