To create this type of printer, use the Create Printer Wizard in the InfoPrint Manager Administration GUI. (On the menu bar, click Printer → Create → PSF → TCP/IP.)
Note: If TCP/IP is not shown in the Printer → Create → PSF menu, use Printer → Add/Remove Menu Items to add it.
PSF TCP/IP printer worksheet provides the information that the wizard prompts for. For assistance, see the InfoPrint Manager Administration GUI online help.
If you did not enable the printer with the Create Printer Wizard, use the InfoPrint Manager Administration GUI to enable it.
