Frequently Asked Questions About USB

QCan other users on my USB chain print to my ML-1650 series printer?

A Yes. Windows 98 allows you to “share” your printer using software settings on your computer. After others on the USB chain have installed the printer software for your specific printer, they can print to your shared printer.

QAfter I install my printer, why isn’t my ML-1650 series printer assigned to an LPT printer port in the Print dialog box of my software application?

A USB uses a different naming convention for USB devices. After the printer has been installed, you see SSUSB:(your printer

name) instead of LPT.

QHow can I increase printing speed and quality?

A When operated on a USB chain, your printer may become slower if other USB devices are being used while you’re printing. For optimal print performance, avoid using other devices in the USB chain while printing.
