Configuring a WINS Server
The printer can be configured to register its NetBIOS name with a WINS server
when power is turned on. This enables the NetBIOS name of the printer to be
specified from SmartNetMonitor for Admin even under a DHCP environment.
This section describes how to configure the WINS server.
Note
❒ The WINS Server is supported with Windows NT 4.0 Server Service Pack 4 or
later, and Windows 2000 Servers WINS Manager.
❒ For more information about the WINS Server settings, see Windows Help.
❒ If there is no reply from the WINS Server, the NetBIOS name will be regis-
tered by broadcast.
❒ The NetBIOS name consists of up to 13 alphanumeric characters.
