Connecting to a network
printer that is directly
connected to the network
This option is more complicated than the other two in that it requires the
printer to be shared by a PC on the network at least temporarily, while
the printer drivers are downloaded and installed on the Scan Station.
Before setting up a printer that is directly connected to the network, the
printer must first be “shared” from a computer on the network. The
shared printer must also be configured to provide a Windows XP driver
for the printer. Once shared, there are two pieces of information you
must gather from this computer: the driver name and the port name.
On the PC that is sharing the printer:
1. Click Start>Settings>Printers and Faxes and select the installed
Printer. The control panel for this printer will be displayed.
2. Write down the Driver Name as it appears on the Control Panel.
The location of this information may be different for each printer.
