When using a printer connected to a network

Go to the command prompt.

If the computer is running under Windows XP/Vista/7 or Windows Server 2003/2003 R2/2008/2008 R2, click [Accessories] from [All Programs] on the [Start] menu, and then click [Command Prompt].

Allocate the network path name under NetBEUI to an unused printer port on the computer.

Example:

C:\WINDOWS>net use lpt3: pathname

Substitute "tiff-filename" with the name of the TIFF file to be printed.

Execute the print command using the allocated printer port.

Example:

C:\WINDOWS>copy /b tiff-filename lpt3

Substitute "tiff-filename" with the name of the TIFF you want to print.

In order to release the printer port allocated in Step 2, execute the following command.

Example:

C:\WINDOWS>net use lpt3: /d
