Setting up the Gateway as a Print Server

If you have a Windows PC, you can use your Gateway to share a printer. Setting up your Gateway as a print server is a three- stage process.

1 Connecting the printer to the Gateway.

2 Installing the software from the Zoom CD on all the PCs that will share the printer.

3 Configuring the print server function.

Configuration instructions differ slightly, depending on your PC’s operating system.

3.1 Connecting the Printer to the Gateway

To connect a printer to the Gateway, you need a standard parallel printer and cable.

On the back panel of the Gateway, plug the 25-pin end of the printer cable into the jack labeled Printer. Plug the other end of the cable into the jack on the back of the printer.

The next stage is to install the print server software.
