The TCP/IP port selection won't be on "Add a network printer" it will be on "Add a local printer". You want to feed the printer directly. In the Printers and Faxes folder, click "Add a Printer">Next. Select "Local printer attached to this computer". Do not check "Automatically detect and install my Plug and Play printer". Click Next. Select "Create a new port" and select "Standatd TCP/IP Port" in the drop-down. Click Next, click Next again (in the "Add Standard TCP/IP Printer Port" wizard), enter the printer's TCP/IP address, click Next, then Finish. You'll be back at the Add a Printer wizard. Select the driver and finish the wizard.Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook]--------------------------------https://mvp.support.microsoft.com/profile/Brian.TillmanIf a reply helps, please vote it as helpful.
