3	Connecting to a
	network

The printer can be shared on a network using an HP Jetdirect print server/Internet connector (LIO module) or an HP Jetdirect external print server.

This chapter explains how to set up the printer for network printing on a peer-to-peer or client-server network.

Peer-to-peer networks

In a peer-to-peer network, the printer software is installed on each computer, and the system is configured to send print jobs directly to the printer. Each individual computer manages its own print jobs. Peer-to- peer printing is more suitable for smaller networks.
