Preparing Printer Server

This section explains how to configure the printer as a Windows network printer. The printer is configured to enabling network clients to use it. When the network printer is connected via SmartDeviceMonitor for Client, you can set the printing notification function to notify clients of the results of their print jobs.

Important

  1. Open the [Printers and Faxes] window from the [Start] menu.

    The [Printers and Faxes] window appears.

  2. Click the icon of the printer you want to use. On the [File] menu, click [Properties]. The printer properties appear.

  3. On the [Sharing] tab, click [Share this printer].

  4. To share the printer with users using a different version of Windows, click [Additional Drivers...].

    If you have installed an alternative driver by selecting [Share As:] during the printer driver installation, this step can be ignored.

  5. On the [Advanced] tab, click the [Printing Defaults...] button. Specify the default values for the printer driver that will be distributed to client computers, and then click [OK].

  6. Click [OK], and then close the printer properties.
