Configure Printer on HP JetDirect Print Server

Do you know the IP Address of the printer?  If so, you will add the printer as a local printer to the XP machine using a TCP/IP Port and the port number will be the IP Address.  The rest of the wizrad is pretty self explanatory.

Thanks for your response.  I finally called Dell and got the help I needed.

Okay.  Good point.  Here is how it is done.  Use the wizard for adding a new printer.

2.  Select Create a new port.  Select Standard TCP/IP port.  Next.  Next.

3.  Enter the TCP/IP address of the JetDirect print server in the IP Address field.

4.  Enter :RAWn (where n corresponds to the port on the print server, i.e. 1, 2, or 3, etc.).  Don't forget the colon.  Next.

5.  Select approprate Parallel port on print server that printer is connected to.  Next.  Finish.
