What You Need Before You Begin

You need to verify that your computer meets the minimum system requirements and identify the

wireless network settings of the wireless network where you will connect before you can set up

your wireless USB adapter and connect.

Use printers in a

combined

wireless and

wired network.

1. Use the Windows

Printers and Fax

features to locate

available printers in

the combined

wireless and wired

network.

2. Use the Windows

Add a Printer wizard

to add access to a

network printer from

the PC you are using

to wirelessly connect

to the network.

3. From the File menu of

an application such

as Microsoft Word,

use the Print Setup

feature to direct your

print output to the

printer in the network.

1. The computer that you are

using to connect to the

wireless network needs to

be configured with:

• Windows Client and File and

Print Sharing

• The same Windows

Workgroup or Domain settings

as the other Windows

computers in the combined

wireless and wired network.

2. Any Windows networking

security access rights such

as login user name/

password that have been

assigned in the Windows

network must be provided

when Windows prompts for

such information.

3. 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.

For assistance with setting up

Windows networking, refer to

the PC Networking Tutorial on

the NETGEAR CD and the

Help information provided in

the Windows system you are

using.

For help with setting up

printers in Windows, refer to

the Help and Support

information that comes with

the version of the Windows

operating systems you are

using.
