Using the Standard TCP/IP port
This describes how to install the PCL printer driver using the Standard TCP/IP port.
Manage Printers permission is required to install the driver. Log on as an Administrators or Power Users group member.
In an IPv6 environment, you cannot use the Standard TCP/IP Port. Use the SmartDeviceMonitor for Client port.
