Windows computers in the
combined wireless and
wired network.
Any Windows networking
security access rights such
as login user name/

assigned in the Windows
network must be provided
when Windows prompts for
such information.
If so-called Windows ‘peer’
networking is being used,
the printer needs to be
enabled for sharing.
Windows Domain settings are
usually managed by corporate
computer support groups.
Windows Workgroup settings
are commonly managed by
individuals who want to set up
small networks in their homes, or
small offices.
