LAN Connection
To work under LAN (Local Area Network) it is mandatory to set the LAN Interface Through the Printer Operator
Panel to match the network setting. See later on the specific LAN configuration chapter.
Contact your system administrator for the correct values.
In the Local Area Network printing environment, the PCs can share a printer, that is, different users can use the
same printer.
Software installation must be carried out on every PC requiring access to the Compuprint printer.
For the communication between the PCs and the Compuprint printer is necessary that the same LAN protocol is
used for all connected devices: the TCP/IP or the NetBEUI protocol in a Windows environment.
For very old Windows O.S. (i.e. Windows98), in the CD you find the “Compuprint PP 20.exe” program which
install the Compuprint TCP/IP port.
This program can be found in the folder of CD: ..\source\Drivers\Microsoft\Print Port
From Windows XP the O.S. gives automatically the function to create a TCP/IP port and connect the printer in a
TCP/IP protocol.
Follow these steps.
Open Control Panel>Devices and Printers>Add new Printer>Choose Local printer
Choose create a printer port>Select Standard
TCP/IP port
Define the HostName or IP Address> Define the Port
