Reminder
Before setting up network printing, install the printer driver. For details on installing the printer driver, refer to “Installing the printer driver” on page
To perform network printing, change the printer port for the installed printer driver to one for a network connection, and then change the set- tings on this machine as necessary.
For an IPP connection, it is necessary to install the printer driver first.
