6.1Setup for TCP/IP

(Windows NT/Windows 2000)

This section describes the flow of setup for connecting the printer to a Windows NT/Windows 2000 server (workstation) using the TCP/IP protocol. To print in a TCP/IP environment, ensure that the Windows NT/Windows 2000 server (workstation), client, and printer have been assigned their respective IP addresses to connect to the network. It is necessary to specify at the Windows NT/ Windows 2000 server (workstation), the IP address assigned to the printer using the port settings. A printer driver compatible with the printer must be used for the setup.

[3]From a Windows NT/Windows 2000 client through a Windows NT/Windows 2000 server (workstation)
