This section explains configuring the WINS server.
The printer can be configured to register its NetBIOS name with a WINS server when the power is turned on. This enables the NetBIOS name of the printer to be specified from SmartDeviceMonitor for Admin even in a DHCP environment.
The WINS server is supported with Windows 2000 Servers WINS Manager.
For details about the WINS server settings, see Windows Help.
If there is no reply from the WINS server, the NetBIOS name is registered by broadcast.
The NetBIOS name can be entered using up to 13 alphanumeric characters.
