Setting up the printer.

This tutorial was done with a Vista 32 bit machine
but it is done the same for all windows systems XP and higher.

First go to Start-Control Panel

Find the Printers Icon (In Windows XP it is Printers and Faxes) and double click that.
Here you will see a list of all you printers set up already. Now we want to find the
Add a printer button. On Vista its on the top of the bar like this:

And on a Windows XP machine its here:

Now that we have found it click on "Add a Printer" and we can start setting up the printer.
Choose the Add a local printer option.



For XP Users:
It is almost the same except make sure that "Automatically detect..." is not checked.





This will ask you what port you want to use. Here we select "Create a new port" and in the drop down
menu we select "Standard TCP/IP Port" from the options and click Next

VISTA USERS: Now it will ask you information for the printer hostname. Make sure Device type is "Autodetect"
Here we type "genepubprint6.gene.cwru.edu" it automatically fills in the Port Name you can keep that.
Make sure that Query the printer and automatically select the driver to use IS selected
and click next.

XP USERS:
After you add the hostname XP users will be asked to give the device type. Here we want to
select "Generic Network Card" and click "Next".

Now we are at "Install the printer driver"
We find the "Have Disk" button and double click.
 
Select the Browse button and find the driver located C:/dell/drivers/R168756/Win_x32/PCL/English/
in that folder there is a file called "dlxzizi" click on that and choose open and then ok in the other menu.
Now you should see the printer displaying:
Click Next

Name the printer anything you would like. and uncheck the "Set as the default printer" if you don't
want this printer to be your default.
Choose Next:

It will go through installing the printer for you. When its done you may click finish to exit.

Now the Dell Printer is Installed and ready for printing!
For Vista Users Only!
If you are using Windows Vista you must download this here (R149293) which is the
update driver for Vista. It works almost the same way as the driver above
except when its completed inside the unzipped folder that pops up you want to
click VistaPrinterUpdate and update the driver to work for Vista.
