Printers in Windows

NT 4.0/2000

Install the AXIS Print System software on your Windows NT 4.0

workstation, if you have not already done so. AXIS Print System can

be downloaded from the AXIS Online CD or from the Axis WWW

home page at http://www.axis.com/.

To enable printing in the TCP/IP environment, you must ensure that

the TCP/IP protocol is enabled on your client.

The set of instructions you should use to install TCP/IP printer ports

is dictated by the IP address of your AXIS 5600:

• If you have an active DHCP server on the network or if you have

already set the IP address of the AXIS 5600 using another

method, you should follow the installation instructions presented

in Installing TCP/IP Printer Ports, on page 54.

• If your AXIS 5600 is not assigned with a valid IP address, you

should follow the installation instructions presented in Installing

TCP/IP Printer Ports and Setting the IP Address, on page 52.
