Installing and sharing printers
The first step in creating a print server for your organization involves installing the print server feature, printer drivers, and printer ports. With those installed, you can create and share a printer for others to access. You can also, as you see in the Deploying shared printers recipe, push out the printer details to client computers.
In this recipe, you download and install two Xerox printer drivers. One of the drivers is used in this recipe; the other is used in the Changing printer drivers recipe. This download comes as a ZIP archive that you need to extract before you can use the drivers.
Note
If you're adapting this recipe to use other printer makes and models, this recipe may have to be adapted. In some cases (such as with Hewlett Packard printers), the printer drivers are installed via a downloadable executable that wasn't designed to be automated. You need run the downloaded executable and then run it on your print server to add the drivers.
