Needing step by step instructions for converting my Lexmark Z730 printer to a network printer
Hi Everyone;
Recently, my main pc has gone down to what seems to be a faulty power supply. This pc had a direct USB connection to a Lexmark printer which I used to print all of my documents. However, I do have a backup computer which has a straight ethernet connection to the router. With this point in mind, I am wondering if I possibly can convert my Lexmark Z730 to a network printer. I have the driver software CD which came with this printer. If I am not mistaken, there is a question during driver installation regarding whether this printer will be a network printer or not. But, I may be mistaken though.
Any help regarding this question will great be appreciated. I look forward to hearing from everyone regarding this question.
Thank you.
George
