SME 5.5 Print via other Network Print Server
« on: November 18, 2002, 08:02:45 PM »
Hi All,

Assuming you got any brand of network print server and SME box connected on the same LAN, and printers are linked via printer server, is it possible that we can enable the print sharing on SME box to these printers? in other works, users can peform printing via SME box as print gateway solution?

By the way, can SME configure become IP Print solution?

Regards,
Daley

I've had it work in some surprising instances ... you might try first adding the IP address of the print server as a network printer from the Server Manager.  If it doesn't work right away you might have to configure the printer server itself.  Ultimate success will depend on the print server hardware.

Hi Ulises,

Aplogize if i call your name wrongly, i am using Axis 5600+ Print Server for TCPIP application and 2 printers shared, my question can i integrate it on SME as IP print solution? it is something like connect a printer on the internet or on a home or office network....
