process, do the following:
1. Select the new printer icon.
2. Select “Properties” from the File menu.
3. Select:
• “Ports” tab

• “Local Port” from the “Printer Ports screen
4. Click on
New Port
.
5. Enter a port name that corresponds to an existing server.
For example, Server/ Workstation = NALA and Share name =
DS8650 would result in a \\ NALA \ DS8650 server/queue
that will be available for users.
6. Click on
OK.
7. Check the new printer’s properties for consistency with the
media currently in the printer to avoid errors.
