Configuring Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 to
Print Using NetBEUI
The Tally auto-install CD-ROM automatically installs the drivers and
utilities your computer needs to print using the NetBEUI protocol. If you
are uncertain whether your network settings are correct for printing over
the network, consult your Windows Help. To install the network printer
software on a computer using NetBEUI:
1. Insert the CD in your CD-ROM.
2. Click the language you want to use.
3. click the
I Accept
button.
4. Click the
T8006 - Install Software
button or the

Software
button.
5. Click the
Network
button to configure the computer for network
printing.
6. Click the
Install Printer Driver
button to install the printer drivers.

Exit This CD
to complete the software installation process.
Note:
By default, your printer is installed on LPT1 — the physical
printer port of your computer. In order to print over the network, you must
now install a virtual port, and tell Windows to print over the virtual printer
port rather than the physical port.
