Step 10: Install drivers for network printing

Windows

After you have assigned and verified the TCP/IP settings, you are ready to install the printer on each network computer.

In Windows environments, network printers can be configured for direct printing or shared printing. Both network printing methods require the installation of a printer driver and the creation of a network printer port.

Supported printer drivers

•Windows system printer driver

•Lexmark custom printer driver

System drivers are built into Windows operating systems. Custom drivers are available on the drivers CD.

Updated system and custom drivers are available on our Lexmark Web site at www.lexmark.com.

Supported network printer ports

•Microsoft IP port—Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003

•Lexmark network port—Windows 95/98/Me, Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003

For basic printer functionality, you can install a system printer driver and use a system network printer port, such as an LPR or a Standard TCP/IP port. The system printer driver and port let you maintain a consistent user interface for use with all the printers on your network. However, using a custom printer driver and network port provides enhanced functionality, such as printer status alerts.
