INSTALLING PRINTER DRIVERS 8
INSTALLING PRINTER DRIVERS
This chapter describes the procedures for installing printer drivers on a computer using a
supported version of Windows. For the Windows versions supported, see “Terminology
and conventions” on page 5. Installing printer drivers and printer description files is the
first step in setting up the CX3641MFP as a PostScript printer.
Install printer drivers as follows:
• From the CX3641MFP through Point and Print using SMB printing.
•FromtheEFI Utilities(windows) CD.
If a CX3641MFP printer driver is already installed, you must uninstall it before you install
a new one (see “Uninstalling printer drivers” on page 15).
Installing printer drivers by Point and Print
SMB printing (also known as Windows or WINS printing) allows you to install PostScript
printer drivers and printer description files on your computer from the CX3641MFP using
Point and Print, and print to a particular connection (Print queue, Hold queue, or Direct
connection).
Each connection (Print queue, Hold queue, or Direct connection) requires a separate
installation. Repeat the procedure for each connection.
When you install the printer driver using Point and Print, you cannot configure installable
options manually. The installed options are displayed in the printer driver when you
enable Two-Way Communication. For more information, see Configuring Installable
Options.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Ask your CX3641MFP administrator to do the following in Setup on the CX3641MFP:
• Assign the CX3641MFP a valid IP address.
Ask your administrator for the IP address or DNS name. You will need it in the following
procedure.
• Configure the CX3641MFP for SMB printing.
NOTE: SMB printing is referred to as Windows Printing in Setup and on the
Configuration page.
For more information, see Configuration and Setup or Configure Help.

INSTALLING PRINTER DRIVERS 14
Installing and connecting to a virtual printer
A virtual printer allows you to print to the CX3641MFP using a predefined set of job
settings. You do not have to set print options manually. Before you can print to a virtual
printer, your administrator must create and configure the virtual printer using Command
WorkStation. Once the virtual printer is set up, you can install the printer driver and printer
description files on your computer from the CX3641MFP using Point and Print.
For more information about setting up virtual printers, see Utilities.
When you install the printer driver using Point and Print, you cannot configure installable
options manually. Installable options are configured automatically. The installed options
are displayed in the printer driver when you enable Two-Way Communication. For more
information about configuring installable options, see Configuring Installable Options.

You can print to a virtual printer just as you would print to the CX3641MFP, as described
in Printing. Depending on how the virtual printer is configured, you may not be able to set
some print options.

INSTALLING PRINTER DRIVERS 15
Uninstalling printer drivers
The Printer Delete Utility is installed and used locally. You do not need to connect to the
CX3641MFP before you use the software.

5 Click OK to restart, or, to delete another printer driver, click Cancel to return to the Fiery
Driver Uninstall Tool dialog box. When you finish deleting printer drivers, restart your
computer.

SETTING UPPRINTING CONNECTIONS 16
SETTING UPPRINTING CONNECTIONS
To print from Windows computers, you or your administrator must perform the
following tasks if you want to set up a connection other than port 9100:
• Set up network servers, if any.
• Set up the CX3641MFP to accept print jobs from your computer.
• Configure a port on each Windows computer for the network type.
Printing connections
The CX3641MFP supports the following printing connections:
•SMB
• Standard TCP/IP (RAW or LPR)
• IPP or IPP over SSL
• Print using the Mail Port
NOTE: For more information about the Mail Port, see “Printing using Mail Port” on
page 33.
Completing the SMB printing connection
If your network does not have a Windows server, Windows computers can still print to the
CX3641MFP. This method of printing is SMB printing (also known as Windows or WINS
printing). When users send print jobs, computers running Windows operate in a
peer-to-peer environment and communicate directly with the CX3641MFP.
Enabling SMB printing allows the CX3641MFP to be listed on the network. This allows
Windows clients to print to a particular print connection (Print queue, Hold queue, or
Direct connection) on the CX3641MFP without using other networking software.
Windows printing runs via TCP/IP. You must configure TCP/IP on the CX3641MFP and
on all computers that use SMB printing.
After you enable SMB printing on the CX3641MFP, you can set up the Windows or SMB
connection and install the printer driver in one procedure. For more information, see
“Installing printer drivers by Point and Print” on page 8.

SETTING UPPRINTING CONNECTIONS 17
Completing Standard TCP/IP Port (Raw or LPR) printing connections
After you install the PostScript and printer driver files, you can add or configure the setup
for the Standard TCP/IP Port (Raw or LPR) connection as follows:
• Prepare the CX3641MFP to accept print jobs using Standard TCP/IP Port (Raw or
LPR) protocols.
For more information, see Configure Help.
• Enable LPD or Port 9100 on the CX3641MFP.
For more information, see Configure Help.
• Configure the computer for the TCP/IP connection.
Before you complete the following procedure, contact your administrator for the
IP address assigned to the CX3641MFP.
Install the TCP/IP protocol as a default on the Windows computer.
For Port 9100, you can set up the connection and install the printer driver in one
procedure.
NOTE: You can also set up the LPR Port connection by installing Print Services for
UNIX, which is supplied as an add-on Windows component with Windows 2000/XP/
Server 2003. For more information, see the documentation that accompanies Windows.
TOSET UP STANDARD TCP/IP PORT (RAW OR LPR) FOR WINDOWS

NOTE: You can also proceed without selecting LPR Byte Counting Enabled.

SETTING UPPRINTING CONNECTIONS 20
To use Port 9100 printing, select Raw in the Protocol area.
The port number 9100 automatically appears in the Raw Settings area. This is the default
port number. You can print to the printer connection selected for Port 9100 printing on the
CX3641MFP.
To specify a specific port number, see the following step.
13 Type the name of the print connection.
For LPR, type print, hold, or direct for Queue Name.
For Port 9100, type the following port numbers for each print connection in the Raw
