To use the print server, install the printer driver by selecting “Network printer serv- er”, and then select the Windows 2000/XP, or Windows Server 2003 shared printer.

This section assumes that the client has already been configured to communicate with a Windows 2000/XP, or Windows Server 2003 print server. Do not begin the following procedure before the client is set up and configured correctly.

Important

To install printer driver under Windows 2000/XP Professional, and Windows Server 2003, you must have an account that has Manage Printers permission. For this, log on as an Administrators or Power Users group member.

If you print with a print server connected to the printer using the SmartDe- viceMonitor port, Recovery Printing and Parallel Printing cannot be used from the client.

If you print with a Windows XP or Windows Server 2003 print server, notifi- cation functions of SmartDeviceMonitor may not be used with the client.
