To print to host network from Windows follow the steps below:
- Click the 'Quick Links' on the left side menu.
- Simply click 'Add Printer Connection' and follow the prompts.
- With your new printer connection added,
on your Windows machine go to Settings->Devices->Printers & scanners. - Remove any previous printers.
- Select 'Add a printer or scanner'.
- Select link 'The printer that I want wasn't listed'.
- Select 'Add a printer using TCP/IP address or hostname' and click 'Next'.
- Enter the IP address of the Lucid user's home printer and click 'Next'.
- After successfully adding your printer and giving it a 'Printer name' click 'Next'.
- Select 'Do not share this printer' and click 'Next'.
- Click 'Finish'.
- Please print a test page.
