Note:
The printer server of the Giga762SX WLAN dsl does not work bi-directionally. It does
not evaluate any of the printer's response messages. For this reason please make sure
that your printer is also only configured uni-directionally. You can configure the rele-
vant settings for your printer by choosing

Installing a standard TCP/IP printer port under Windows XP/2000
You can use the standard TCP/IP port driver available in this operating system. Make sure
that the Giga762SX WLAN dsl is connected and can be reached in the network. A printer

following illustrations show installation on Windows XP. Installation on Windows 2000
is essentially the same.
