Instructions for setting up a printer on the PC
Once you have installed the printer port you still cannot start printing. The printer port 
is nothing more than an additional interface on your PC, comparable with the USB port. 
It means that any printer you install on this port is also regarded as a local printer even 
though it is located in the network and possibly remote from you. 
You still need to connect and configure the printer to this port. 
ì
Connect the printer to the USB interface on your Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable. 
The printer is installed in the same way as any other printer: 
ì
Go through Start – Settings – Printer and click on New Printer.
ì
In the window that opens, click on Next.
ì
Proceed as instructed by the printer installation wizard. Please note: 
In the window in which you are prompted to specify the location of the printer you 
should select Local Printer (usually the default setting).
ì
Then click on Next.
ì
Continue to install the printer. Select your printer and click on Next.
ì
When the window appears in which you are prompted to enter the type of connec-
tion, double click on the port name Gigaset_Druckerport.
ì
Then continue to install the printer and finish the installation.
Note:
The Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable's printer server does not work bidirectionally. It 
does not evaluate any of the printer's response messages. For this reason please make 
sure that your printer is also configured unidirectionally.
