TCP/IP CONNECTION
The printer can be connected over TCP/IP using LPR.
LPR is simply a method of printing directly over TCP/IP, without the
need for a print server.
NOTE
If the printer cannot be discovered by the Chooser, it is most likely a
connection problem.
NOTE
This installation procedure uses Apple's Desktop Printer Utility to
connect the printer to your Mac. You cannot connect to a printer over
TCP/IP using the Chooser.
