3.3 Adding Printers in Windows 98 and Me
AXIS Print Monitor is the recommended tool to use for network printing in Windows 98 and Me.
It allows AXIS 5500/AXIS 5550 to be connected in the same simple fashion as a local printer.
Note:
For peer-to-peer printing, AXIS Print Monitor must be installed on all printing clients, while it is only necessary to
install it on the server for client/server printing.
1. To start the Add Printer Wizard, select Settings | Printers from the Start menu and
double-click the Add Printer icon.
2. After clicking Next in the first dialog, the Wizard asks you to select between Local Printer and
Network Printer. You must select Local Printer as the AXIS 5500/AXIS 5550 emulates a local
printer port. Click Next.
3. Choose the appropriate print driver for your printer. If the desired print driver already appears
within the displayed Manufacturers and printers lists, highlight your selection, click Next and
proceed directly to step 6. It is only necessary to perform steps 4 - 5 if your printer does not
feature in the model list.
4. Click the Have Disk... button. Insert the printer driver diskette/CD into the appropriate disk drive
of your computer. If the floppy disk drive is A:, then click OK, otherwise type the letter of your
disk drive and then click OK.
5. Select the type of printer you want to install from the diskette/CD and click Next.
6. Select the Printers@TCP/IP Port and click Next.
7. Enter an appropriate name for your printer and choose whether you want it to be the default
printer. Click Next.
8. In the next window, do not order a Test Page to be written, just click Finish.
9. AXIS Print Monitor now informs you that the printer has to be connected to another port. Click
OK.
10. The printer you have defined will now be displayed in the Printers Folder. Right-click the printer
object and select Properties from the Context menu.
11. Click the Details tab within the Properties page and then click Add Port to display the available
monitors.
12. Click the radio button "other". Select AXIS Port and then click OK.
13. Select RAW (TCP/IP) as your choice of protocol and click OK.
