6Enter the information to create the port.

a Assign a logical port name. This can be any name that reminds you of the printer such as “Printer_lab4”. This name eventually appears in the list of available ports.

bSelect the IP address of your printer from the list. If the address is not listed, then click Enter TCP/IP address or Name of Print Server, and then type the address in the IP address text box.

If you don’t know the IP address, press the operator panel button with a brief button press to print a network setup page and look under the TCP/IP heading.

cCheck the option to Set this protocol to be the default protocol.

dClick OK. The new port is assigned to the printer.

7Press the operator panel button with a brief button press to print a test page to verify printer installation. If the Printer Properties window is still open, click Print Test Page on the General tab.

If you have closed the Printer Properties, do the following: a Click Start Settings Printers.

b Click File Properties.

c On the General tab, click Print Test Page.

When a test page prints successfully, client setup is complete.
