To add printer drivers for other clients

  1. Open Printers and Faxes.

  2. On the File menu, click Server Properties, and then click the Drivers tab.

  4. After selecting the printer's manufacturer and model, you are prompted to select the environment and operating systems for which you want to install drivers.

Notes

  • To open Printers and Faxes, click Start, and then click Printers and Faxes.

  • You can add printer drivers for other platforms (such as Alpha-based or x86-based), or for other operating systems, using the Sharing tab on each printer's properties page. If you need to add additional drivers for multiple printers, it might be easier to use the Drivers tab on the properties page of the print server.

Information about functional differences

  • Your server might function differently based on the version and edition of the operating system that is installed, your account permissions, and your menu settings. For more information, see Viewing Help on the Web.
