Print Server
The Device allows you to share a USB printer on your LAN. You can do this by connecting a USB
printer to one of the USB ports on the Device and then configuring a TCP/IP port on the computers
connected to your network.
16.4.1
Before You Begin
To configure the print server you need the following:
•
Your Device must be connected to your computer and any other devices on your network. The
USB printer must be connected to your Device.
•
A USB printer with the driver already installed on your computer.
•
The computers on your network must have the printer software already installed before they can
create a TCP/IP port for printing via the network. Follow your printer manufacturers instructions
on how to install the printer software on your computer.
Note: Your printer’s installation instructions may ask that you connect the printer to your
computer. Connect your printer to the Device instead.
