If your computer is running the Windows operating system in a

Windows Me, 98, or 95 environment, double-click the Network icon
in the Control panel of the printer server and make sure that the
“File and printer sharing for Microsoft Networks” component is
installed. Then, on both the printer server and the clients, make sure
that the “IPX/SPX-compatible Protocol” or the “TCP/IP Protocol”
is installed.

The printer server and clients should be on the same network system,

and they should be under the same network management.
