Networking the printer
Installing a network printer allows users at different workstations to print to a common printer. Methods of setting up a
network printer include:
a direct Ethernet connection through a Lexmark print server
sharing a printer that is locally attached to a network computer
Note: You can also set up a wireless network using a Lexmark print server. If your printer came with a Lexmark N4050e
print server, follow the steps on the Setup Sheet that came with your product to set it up.
Installing network printers
Direct IP printing
