Installing the printer port for network printers
Installing a standard TCP/IP printer port under Windows XP/
2000
You can use the standard TCP/IP port driver present in this operating system. Make sure
that the Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable is connected and can be reached in the network.
A printer need not be connected to the USB port on your Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable
at this point. The following illustrations show installation on Windows XP. Installation
on Windows 2000 is essentially the same.
