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.

Wired Network-connected Printer

A CLP-500N printer has the built-in network interface. See page C.7 for information about installing the card.

To use a CLP-500 printer as a network printer, you need to install an optional network interface card in your printer.

Wireless Network-connected Printer

To use your printer in a wireless network environment, you need to install an optional wired/wireless network interface card in your printer. See page C.7.

Printing Across a Network

Whether the printer is locally connected or network-connected, you need to install the CLP-500 series printer software on each computer that prints documents using the printer.
