10. Installing user software in a Windows 2000 environmentXerox Phaser 79010–22Installing the user software for SPM printingStandard Port Monitor (SPM) printing offers an alternative to LPR portswhen you want to send jobs to network printers over TCP/IP. SPM isinstalled by default when TCP/IP is installed in Windows 2000.SPM is more robust than LPR because it uses Simple NetworkManagement Protocol (SNMP) to read the configuration of the targetprinter and determine its status. If SPM cannot configure the targetprinter using SPM default TCP ports and SNMP, it uses the LPRprotocol, if this protocol is provided by the printer. However, theinstallation will still be as an SPM port.Unlike LPR, SPM uses port 9100 as the default destination port andrandomly selects any open source port greater than 1023 as thesource port.Before you continue, print a configuration sheet at the printer to obtainthe IP address assigned to the Phaser 790, as well as the Subnetmask and gateway address, if they are used.1.
