USING YOUR PRINTER ON A NETWORKE.2 About Sharing the Printer on a Network If you work in a networked environment, you can connect your printer to the network. Locally-Shared Printer You can connect the printer directly to a selected computer, which is called the “host computer” on the network. The printer can then be shared by other users on the network through a Windows 9x/Me/XP/NT 4.0/2000 network printer connection. Wired Network-connected Printer A CLP-550N printer has a built-in network interface. For more information about connecting your printer to the network, see page F.12. To use a CLP-550 printer as a network printer, you need to install an optional network interface card in your printer. See page F.8 for information about installing the card. Wireless Network-connected Printer To use your printer in a wireless network environment, you need to install an optional wired/wireless network interface card in your printer. See page F.8. Printing Across a Network Whether the printer is locally connected or network-connected, you need to install the CLP-550 series printer software on each computer that prints documents using the printer. qownlo#ded2(rom2Q#nu#lsKrinterIcom2Q#nu#ls
