Note

• If you are going to connect the printer to your

network, we recommend that you contact your
system administrator prior to installation or see the
Network User’s Guide on the CD-ROM.

• If you are using Personal Firewall software (e.g.

Windows Firewall), disable it. Once you are sure
that you can print, restart your Personal Firewall
software.
