The DSL/Cable Router provides printing support for 2 methods for printing from Windows:

•

  Printer Port Driver.  After installing the Printer Port Driver, Windows users can print

directly to the DSL/Cable Router. Print jobs are spooled (queued) on each PC.
The supplied Printer Port Driver supports Windows 95/98, Windows Me Windows NT4.0,
Windows 2000 and Windows XP.

•

  LPD/LPR Printing.  If using Windows NT 4.0 Server or Windows 2000 Server,

LPD/LPR printing can be used. No software needs to be installed on either the Windows
Server or each client PC. Print jobs will be spooled (queued) on the Windows Server, and
can be managed using the standard Windows Server tools.

The following procedure is for all versions of Windows (95/98/Me, NT4.0, 2000, XP). The
Windows "Add Printer" screens will vary depending on your version or Windows, but the
procedure is the same:

1.  Insert the supplied CD-ROM into your drive. If the setup program does not start automati-

cally, run SETUP.EXE in the root folder.

2.  At the Select Components screen, select the Print Port Driver option.
3.  Follow the prompts to complete the installation.
4.  The Print Port Setup will then run, and the following screen will be displayed.

5.  Select the desired device and port, and click the "Add" button.
