Network Printer

[ozzroo]

I have installed my printer and can see it on the network and on local machines but cant print anything

I reserved an IP address on the server for the printer and set this on the printer but still no luck

Using a large Panasonic DP-C322

Easiest thing for you to do is set upt he printer ont he server first. Add a new printer, choose Network Printer. When prompted for a port choose to add a new port. Select Standard TCP/IP port and enter the IP address of the printer.

Install the necessary drivers. Setup the printer options such as memory, duplex etc and then share the printers. Have the workstations use that shared connection and you will not need to set the installed options on each workstation.

If you wish for the workstations to print directlyt o the printer, repeat the above steps (don't need to share though) on each PC.

I hope you find this post helpful.
