Printing in a Network Environment

If you work in a network environment, you can connect the WorkCentre Pro 580 directly to a selected computer (called the “host computer”) on the network. The printer can then be shared by other users on the network through a Windows 9x, 2000 or NT 4.0 network printer connection.

NOTE: You need to install the WorkCentre Pro 580 printer driver on each computer that will print documents to the printer.
