Step 12: IBM LAN Network Installation

Distributing the Printer Software to Network Clients

Before a client can print to the printer, the printer software must be installed on the clients workstation. Rather than distributing the CD-ROM to each client, disk images of the installation software can be placed in a public directory or onto diskettes.

Use a file management tool to copy disk images. Use the Structure of the CD-ROMs section in Step 10: Understanding the Software to determine the location of the disk images on the CD-ROM.
