Adding a port to an existing printer
|
Use this procedure to add a port after you have installed the printer.
-
Select your printer:
-
From the Start menu, select Settings, then click Printers.
-
In the Printers window, right-mouse click on your printer.
-
From the pop-up menu, choose Properties.
-
When the properties dialog for the printer is displayed, click Details.
-
Click Add Port, then select Other.
-
Highlight PhaserPort and click OK; this displays the
Add PhaserPort
dialog.
-
In the
Description
field, enter a name for the port (this can be the printer name/model, location, or any other descriptive name of your choice), such as Phaser 740.
-
In the Name/Address field, enter the IP address or DNS name of the printer (for example, 192.1.1.2).
If you don't know the printer's IP address or DNS name, click
Browse
to display a list of printers on the network. Double-click the printer you want; PhaserPort automatically enters the information into the
Add PhaserPort
dialog. To search the network again, click
Refresh; to narrow down the search by using subnets, click
Advanced.
|
-
Click
OK.
-
Click OK again to apply the changes; the printer driver is now configured to use your new PhaserPort.
