•If you do not see your printer on the list, click Update to refresh the list, or select Add TCP/IP Port to add your printer to the network. To add the printer to the network, enter the port name and the IP address for the printer.

•To find a shared network printer (UNC Path), select Shared Printer [UNC] and enter the shared name manually or find a shared printer by clicking the Browse button.

If you are not sure of the IP address, contact your network administrator or print network information. See "Printing reports" on page 49.

7.After the installation is complete, a window appears asking you to print a test page. If you wish to do so, select the corresponding checkbox(es) and click Finish.

• If your printer does not work properly after the installation, try to reinstall the printer driver. See Software section for more information.

•During the printer driver installation process, the driver installer detects the location information for your operating system and sets the default paper size for your printer. If you use a different Windows location, you must change the paper size to match the paper you usually use. Go to printer properties to change the paper size after installation is complete.
