printer on Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows Me, Windows NT 
4.0, Windows 2000, and Windows XP. Using SMB, print data or 
settings can be sent directly to a printer on the same network 
(Ethernet interface) without going through a server. 
For details on how to connect this machine to a Windows network 
using SMB, refer to the System’s Administrator’s Guide.
TCP/IP (LPD)
This machine supports TCP/IP (LPD). The different connections 
are briefly explained below. 
For details on how to connect this machine to a Windows 
computer using TCP/IP, refer to the System’s Administrator’s
