2 SETTING UP NETWORK SERVER
Setting up the client computers
Each client computer of a Windows print server is already using a network protocol to communi- cate with the server. Each client computer can print to this equipment if the printer has been shared by a Windows print server. In that case the client computer does not have to use the same network protocol to connect to the Windows print server as the server uses to communi- cate with the equipment.
To set up printing on client computers, connect to the print server and select the shared printer.
After client computers have selected the printer, they can choose it from the Print Setup, Page Setup, or Print dialog box of their application. Client computers can change printing options for their own job, but printer properties are grayed and not available for changing. When a client computer prints a document, the job is transmitted to the Windows print server, and from there to this equipment.
The job is listed in the Print Manager on the client computer, and the administrator can track it in the Print Manager on the Windows print server.
