Step 2: Install the
VideoNet Protocol
The VideoNet networking protocol is used to communicate with
the printer. These instructions assume a familiarity with
Microsoft Windows XP administrative functions. If necessary,
consult your network or computer administrator or consultant for
assistance.
Caution The VideoNet protocol is not compatible with Novell
NetWare. Do not install VideoNet if you are using
Novell NetWare.
1. Display the Local Area Connection icons.
On the Windows Start menu, click Control Panel. From the
Control Panel, click Network & Internet Connections. From
Network & Internet Connections, click Network Connections.
You should see two icons, one representing your office LAN,
the other representing the VideoNet connection.
It can be difficult to determine which icon represents which
connection. One way to determine this is to unplug the
VideoNet cable and observe which icon shows a red “X”
(see the following figure).
2. To avoid confusion in the future, rename the Local Area
Connection icons to “LAN” and “VideoNet.”
3. Right-click the VideoNet icon.
4. Click Properties.
