CHAPTER 2 TCP/IP PRINTING

2-3

Windows 2000/XP Printing

(Printer Driver not yet installed)

By default, Windows 2000/XP systems install with all the necessary software

required for you to be able to print. This chapter describes the two most

commonly used configurations, Standard TCP/IP Port printing and IPP (Internet

Printing Protocol). If you have already installed the printer driver, jump to the

printer driver already installed section.

Standard TCP/IP Port Printing

1. From the Printers Folder select "Add Printer", the "Add Printer Wizard"

will now start. Click on "Next".

2. Now select the Local Printer option and deselect the "Automatically

detect and install my Plug and Play printer" option.

3. Click on "Next".

4. You must now select the correct Network printing port. Select the

"Standard TCP/IP Port" option as the port is installed by default on

Windows 2000/XP systems.

5. When you have done that click "Next".

6. The "Add Standard TCP/IP Port Wizard" will now appear. Click the

"Next" button.

7. Enter the IP address, or name of the printer you wish to configure. The

Wizard will automatically enter the Port name information for you.

8. Click the "Next" button.

9. Windows 2000/XP will now contact the printer that you specified. If you

did not specify the correct IP address or name then you will receive an

error message.

10. Click the "Finish" button to complete the Wizard.

11. Now that you have configured the port, you must specify which printer

driver you wish to use. Select the appropriate driver from the list of

supported printers. If you are using a driver supplied with the printer on

CD-ROM then select the "Have Disk" option to browse to the CD-ROM.

You can also click the “Windows Update” button to connect directly to

Microsoft’s support Web site to download printer drivers.

12. When the driver is installed, click the Next button.

13. Specify a name and click the “Next” button.

14. Now specify if you wish to share the printer, enter the share name and

click “Next”.

15. Continue through the Wizard clicking the “Finish” button when

complete.
