Lexmark NetPnP
The NetPnP utility for Windows NT ships on the drivers CD.
NetPnP automates the configuration and installation of Lexmark printers on a network. NetPnP senses
when a new printer is attached to the network, automatically creates a shared printer object on a
Windows NT 4.0 system, and notifies users via e-mail that the printer is available for printing. It also
notifies IT administrators via e-mail when a new printer is detected or when an error occurs during
automatic printer installation.
• Lets administrators make printers available to users within seconds.
• Extends network printer installation to include the end user by installing all necessary
components that enable printing to workstations across the network.
• Provides huge productivity gains when rolling out large numbers of network printers.
• Supports a wide range of printer installation options for IT administrators, from fully automatic
installation to prompted confirmations.
• Lets you customize network printer installation in Windows NT environments running TCP/IP.
• Automates the setup of Lexmark network printers, eliminating more than a dozen steps in the
process.
• Distribution of drivers with custom settings to users.
IT administrators can remotely install, update, and distribute drivers with custom settings to
users on the network, eliminating time-consuming workstation driver installation and
configuration.
