Installing and
Configuring PhaserLink
Remote Internet Printing
Software
After you install the PhaserLink Remote Internet Printing client software, use the
Destination Manager to set up and organize Internet-connected printers and groups
of printers. Once you have completed this task, you can print to Internet-connected
printers and groups of printers from a Windows application, just as you would print
to any printer installed on your system. See Chapter 4 for details on printing.

Unless you are familiar with Internet addresses, passwords, and other details of
your printers, network, and Internet connection, you will probably want your System
Administrator to help you use the Destination Manager to set up your
Internet-connected printers.
Using the Destination Manager involves these steps:
1.
Add each available Internet-connected printer to the Internet-
connected Printers
list.
2.
Create groups of printers in the Internet-connected Groups of Printers list.
