Customer-	Users create their documents at the networked client PCs or
supplied client PC	workstations using software applications that generate PDL
or workstation	output. When ready to print, users submit the documents to the
	printer controller.
Customer-	The customer needs to supply one or more of the following
supplied network	networks:

• Ethernet local area network (LAN) running TCP/IP, AppleTalk, or Novell NetWare network protocol.

• Token Ring running TCP/IP, Novell, or AppleTalk network protocol.

Networks

Both network client workstations and the IBM host can communicate with the controller over a network.

Ethernet LAN

Users of networked client workstations may send print jobs to the

DocuColor NPS/IPS printer over the Ethernet LAN using TCP/IP,

AppleTalk using EtherTalk Link Access Protocol (ELAP), or

Novell NetWare 3.1x as the network protocol.
