ADDING A SHARED LX
– 350,300+ PRINTER SHARED ON WINDOWS XP ON WINDOWS SEVEN
Windows seven comes preinstalled with Epson LX-300 + drivers
but when adding a shared printer from windows XP it doesn’t always work, it
searches on windows updates but never finds the drivers.
A simple solution for that:
· 1. Add an LX 300 printer in devices and printers
and use any local port available e.g. LPT1
· 2. When the printer has installed successful right
click the printer go to printer properties, click the port tab the add port
· 3. Select a local port under port name provide the
URL to the shared as the port name e.g. \\192.168.2.230\epson lx 300,
the second part shows the shared printer name
· 4. The make sure that is the active port on the
printer and it should be ready to print
