NetBEUI Protocol
NetBEUI is a protocol that was designed for use on small
workgroups or LANs. Within Windows, NetBEUI is used for file and
printer sharing between computers. It provides a simple method of
printing, but the protocol does have limitations and is not as robust
as TCP/IP or IPX. Typically it is employed in small or home
networks.
Network Printer Settings
There are three configurable items under NetBEUI within the
printer. These can be configured using the standard set-up utility
described in Chapter 1.

Although the workgroup name can be changed, it is recommended that it remain PrintServer.
Although there are some differences in configuration options
between the various Windows platforms, the procedure for printing

This can be confirmed by checking the network settings. If NetBEUI
has not been installed please refer to the section below.
