Configuring a WINS Server

The printer can be configured to register its NetBIOS name with a WINS server when power is turned on. This enables the NetBIOS name of the printer to be specified from SmartNetMonitor for Admin even under a DHCP environment.

This section describes how to configure the WINS server.

Note

The WINS Server is supported with Windows NT 4.0 Server Service Pack 4 or later, and Windows 2000 Servers WINS Manager.

For more information about the WINS Server settings, see Windows Help.

If there is no reply from the WINS Server, the NetBIOS name will be regis- tered by broadcast.

The NetBIOS name consists of up to 13 alphanumeric characters.
