Follow these steps to install your NPS 550 for peer-to-peer printing at a
Windows for Workgroups workstation:
1. Double-click the Axis Print Utility icon.

3. In the NPS Port list, select the NPS 550 port you want to install.
The ports appear as <name>.LP1, <name>.LP2 and <name>.CM2,
where <name> is the NPS 550 print server name (AXIS... is abbrevi-
ated to AX...).
4. Accept or change the suggested Windows port name, and type any
comments in the Description field. Make a note of the Windows port
name (you will need it later), then click OK to install the Windows
port.
5. In the Port menu, click Connect to bring up the Windows Printers
dialog.
6. Select a printer driver from the list of Installed Printers (or click Add>>
to install a new driver), then click Connect...
7. Select the Windows port from step 4 (at the bottom of the Ports list),
then click OK.
8. Click OK to close the Connect dialog, and Close to close Printers.
The setup is now completed and you can immediately print through your
NPS 550.
Important: Axis Print Utility must be running when you print through
your NPS 550. We strongly recommend that you copy the Axis Print
Utility icon into your Startup folder.
