NetBEUI Peer to Peer Printing

Windows 95/98/Me and NT4 Workstation Print Driver Installation

Before You Start

1. Obtain the Print Driver for your workstation's operating system. Drivers are available on one of the

CD-ROMs that came with your Device. They are also typically available for downloading in self-
extracting Zip file format from the Internet at www.xerox.com.

2. Print

a

Settings List

as stated under the Network Connectivity Tab of this guide.

3. On the Settings List, verify that "SMB" is enabled. Also, verify that NetBEUI is enabled as one of

the supported protocols (TCP/IP may also be displayed). Verify that the NetBEUI workgroup's
default name is Workgroup

, or a valid, 15 character maximum, workgroup name. Also note the

Device's SMB Host Name

(which assures the uniqueness of the Device's name within the

Workgroup). To enable "SMB," if required, follow the procedure stated under the Microsoft (NetBEUI)
item of the NOS Selection menu, accessed from the Network Connectivity Tab of this guide. To
modify the name of the Device's Workgroup, or Device's name (SMB Host name) within the
workgroup, use your workstation's Web browser to access the Internet Services (Web Pages)
residing in the Device, as described under the Configure SMB menu item, under the Internet
Services Tab

of this guide.

Verify that the NetBEUI Protocol and Services are installed in the workstation

1. At the Workstation's Desktop, right-click the Network Neighborhood icon ("My Network Places" in

Windows Me) and select Properties.

2. Click

the

Configuration Tab (95/98/Me)

or the Protocols Tab (Windows NT4) and verify that the

NetBEUI protocol is loaded. If it is, click the Identification Tab (95/98/Me/NT4) to determine if the
name of your workstation's Workgroup is the same as the name of the device's Workgroup. If it is,
you can exit the Properties screen. If it is NOT, either modify the name of the Device's workgroup to
match your own, or type in the name of the Device's workgroup here. Click OK.

Notes:

If the NetBEUI Protocol is not present in the Protocol list, click the Add button, select NetBEUI from
the available list and click OK. If the setup program fails to find the required files, you will have to
click Have Disk… to load the protocol from the Operating System installer disk for this workstation.

If the Device will be directly attached to a networked workstation, you need to enable Sharing on the
workstation that the Device is attached to. At the workstation sharing the Device, right mouse click
the Network Neighborhood icon (My Network Places" in Windows Me) and select Properties. Click
the Configuration Tab (95/98/Me) and verify that File and Printer Sharing services is installed. If it
isn't, with your Windows installer disk available, click the Add button to install the required service. In
Windows 95/98/Me, click the File and Print Sharing button and verify that the checkbox labeled "I
want to be able to allow others to print to my printer(s)" is enabled (checked). In Windows 95/98/Me
and NT4, from the Printers folder on the desktop, right mouse click on the Printer's icon and select
Properties (95/98/Me) or Document Defaults (NT4). Select the Sharing Tab and verify that sharing is
enabled for this device.
