About Sharing the Printer on a Network

If you work in a networked environment, you can connect your printer to the network.

Locally-Shared Printer

You can connect the printer directly to a selected computer, which is called the “host computer” on the network. The printer can then be shared by other users on the network through a Windows 9x/Me/XP/NT 4.0/2000 network printer connection.

Network-connected Printer

ML-2551N and ML-2552W printers have the built-in network interface. For more information about connecting your printer to the network, see page 2.12.

To use a ML-2550 printer as a network printer, you need to install an optional network interface card in your printer. For a ML-2551N printer, you can replace the network interface card to one supporting the wireless LAN interface. See page F.6 for information about installing the card.

Printing Across a Network

Whether the printer is locally connected or network-connected, you need to install the ML-2550 series printer software on each computer that will print documents to the printer.
