Add the IPv4 address and host name of the network printer to the hosts file on the computer used for printing.
Open the hosts file using memo pad files, for instance.
The hosts file is in the following folder:
\WINNT\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC\HOSTS
Add an IPv4 address and host name to the hosts file using the following format:
192.168.15.16 host # NP
“192.168.15.16” is the IPv4 address, “host” is this printer's host name, and “#NP” is replaced by comments. Insert a space or tab between “192.168.15.16” and “host”, between “host” and “#NP” respectively, using one line for this format.
Save the file.
