Setting Up Network Printers

To set up a network printer

1. Connect the network printer to the ZoneAlarm router.

   See Connecting the Router to Network Printers.

2. Turn the printer on.
3. In the ZoneAlarm Portal, click Network in the main menu, and click the Ports tab.

   The Ports page appears.

4. Next to USB, click Edit.

   The USB Devices page appears. If the ZoneAlarm router detected the printer, the printer is listed on the page.

   If the printer is not listed, check that you connected the printer correctly, then click Refresh to refresh the page.

5. Next to the printer, click Edit.

   The Printer Setup page appears.

6. Write down the port number allocated to the printer.

   The port number appears in the Printer Server TCP Port field. You will need this number later, when configuring computers to use the network printer.

7. To change the port number, do the following:
   1. Type the desired port number in the Printer Server TCP Port field.

      Note: Printer port numbers may not overlap, and must be high ports.

   2. Click Apply.

   You may want to change the port number if, for example, the printer you are setting up is intended to replace another printer. In this case, you should change the replacement printer's port number to the old printer's port number, and you can skip the next step.

8. Configure each computer from which you want to enable printing to the network printer.
