Using a Printer Server
235
❒ If the printer works as configured, the name of the print server appears as
a connected user.
❒ If you cannot identify the printer you want to configure, check the printer
name with the configuration page printed from the printer. For details about
printing a configuration page, see p.128 “
List/Test Print Menu”.
❒ If no printer names appear in the list, match the frame types of IPX/SPXs
for the computer and printer. Use the [Network] dialog box of Windows to
change the frame type of the computer.
For details about changing the printer's frame type (“NW Frame Type”),
see “Configuring the Printer”, Setup Guide.
