Printer sharing considerations
Any other users sharing your USB-connected printer will be able to send print jobs, but will not be able to receive
information from the printer—which aects status reports, administration and troubleshooting.
TIP: The best way to share the printer over a network is to connect the printer not to any computer, but to the
network. See Connect a computer to the printer by network (Windows) on page 13.
Connect a computer to the printer by network (Mac OS X)
You can connect your printer to a network under Mac OS X by using the following methods:
● Bonjour
● TCP/IP
The following instructions apply if you intend to print from software applications using a printer driver. See
Printing on page 38 for alternative ways of printing.
Before you begin, check your equipment:
● The printer should be set up and on.
● The Ethernet switch or router should be on and functioning correctly.
● The printer and the computer should be connected to the (wired or wireless) network. See Connect the
printer to your network on page 13.
Now you can proceed to install the printer software and connect to your printer.
