Windows 2000 Server\Professional & XP Professional Print Driver Installation

Before you start

Obtain the Print Driver for your workstation's operating system. Drivers are available on one of the CD-ROMs
that came with your Printer. They are also typically available for downloading in self-extracting Zip file format
from the Internet at

www.xerox.com

.

Verify that TCP/IP is installed in the workstation

On the Windows 2000 Desktop, right mouse click the My Network Places icon and select Properties. Right
mouse click on the Local Area Connection icon and select Properties. On the Windows XP desktop, click
Start, Control Panel, and double click Network Connections. Right mouse click on the Local Area
Connection
icon and select Properties. Verify that the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) has been loaded. If it has,
click on (highlight) this item with your mouse and click the Properties button to verify that this workstation is
using either a dynamic or static method to obtain a valid TCP/IP address. If the TCP/IP protocol is NOT loaded,
click the Install… button, then select Protocol as the type of network component that you wish to install. Click
the Add… button and select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP). With your Operating System Installer Disk readily
available, click the Have Disk… button and follow any remaining instructions. Once the protocol has been
installed, you can click on (highlight) the item with your mouse and click the Properties button to verify or set up
the method being used for TCP/IP addressing.

Verify that Print Services for Unix is installed in the workstation (see Note below)

Note: You can skip this step and proceed directly to "Adding the Printer to the Desktop," if you prefer printing
through the "Standard TCP/IP Port" (Port 9100), rather than through an LPR port.
