Setting Up Additional Computers

After you configure the print server, you need to set up a network port on all the computers that will print over the wireless network. First, do the following:

1.Make sure you have installed the printer driver and utility software. See the Start Here sheet that came with your printer for instructions.

2.Make sure your computer’s wireless mode is set to either Infrastructure, if you are connecting to the printer through an access point, or 802.11b Ad Hoc if you are connecting without an access point.

If your wireless adapter doesn’t include an 802.11b Ad Hoc option, select Ad Hoc, Computer-to-Computer, or whatever mode your adapter uses to communicate without an access point. Do not select a pseudo ad hoc or proprietary ad hoc mode. See the documentation for your wireless adapter for instructions.

3.If you’re using infrastructure mode, make sure there is a link with good signal strength between the computer and the access point.

4.Go to one of the following sections for instructions on setting up a network port:

■“Setting Up a Network Port on Windows XP or 2000” on page 22.

■“Setting Up a Network Port on Windows Me, 98, or 95” on page 24.

■“Setting Up a Network Port on Windows NT 4.0” on page 27.
