Selecting a Printing Method
Printing from Windows
Check if there is a Windows Vista/XP/Server 2008/Server 2003/2000/NT print server on your
network, and then use the suggestions below.
Note:
Only the recommended printing methods are introduced here. See “Features of the Printing Methods”
on page 20 for information on additional methods.
If no Windows Vista/XP/Server 2008/Server 2003/2000/NT print server exists
Use a printing method appropriate to your operating system:
❏ For Windows Me/98
We recommend TCP/IP printing via EpsonNet Print. See “About EpsonNet Print” on page
102.
❏ For Windows Vista/XP/Server 2008/Server 2003/2000/NT
We recommend TCP/IP printing via LPR. See “Windows Vista/Server 2008” on page 45,
“Windows XP” on page 50, “Windows Server 2003” on page 58, “Windows 2000” on page
64, or “Windows NT 4.0” on page 69.
If a Windows Vista/XP/Server 2008/Server 2003/2000/NT print server exists
On the server, set the printer to connect with LPR and turn it into a shared printer. Your clients can
then print to this shared printer.
