Network components used for digital-sending

The following table describes the network components used for digital sending.

Component	Description
Network server running Windows® 2000	The server contains the following components:
Professional, Server, or Advanced Server;	● HP DSS
Windows XP Professional; or Windows
Server 2003 Standard or Enterprise Server	● HP MFP DSS Configuration Utility—used to configure and monitor digital-
		sending features after the HP DSS program has been installed
	● Windows 2000 Fax service—required only when the Windows 2000 Fax
		service is the method of fax transport
Network	Fast Ethernet 100Base-TX or Ethernet 10Base-T
Digital senders or HP multi-function	An HP DSS server can support up to 1000 HP 9250C Digital Senders, HP 9200C
peripheral (MFP) devices	Digital Senders, or MFP devices on the same network. Each device can be
	individually configured to support any or all of the digital-sending options.
			NOTE: HP DSS does not support the HP 9100C or 8100C Digital
			Senders.
Web browser	Users can use a Web browser from any computer on the network to configure
	and monitor the digital sender by using HP Web Jetadmin, or the digital sender's
	embedded Web server.
SMTP-enabled e-mail server	This gateway facilitates the e-mail and Internet fax digital-sending options.
LAN fax server (requires DSS)	A LAN fax server is a network device that centrally handles the sending and
	receiving of large numbers of fax jobs. HP DSS can be used to configure the
	digital sender to route outgoing faxes to a LAN fax server.
LDAP server	An LDAP server is a directory server that contains recipients' names and e-mail
	addresses and supports Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP). HP DSS
	uses the LDAP server to obtain addresses for the digital-sender address book.
FTP server	A file transfer protocol (FTP) server can be used as a destination for documents
	scanned by the digital sender.
Domain controller/Novell directory server	In order to support user authentication, the digital sender must have access to
(requires DSS)	a domain controller or Novell directory server in order to validate the user's login
	information.
Network printer (requires DSS)	A network printer can be set up as a destination for documents scanned by the
	digital sender.
Kerberos Domain Controller	A Kerberos Domain Controller (KDC) provides Kerberos Authentication services
	on the network. A Windows Domain Controller can be configured to act as a
	Kerberos Domain Controller.
Novell Network Support (requires DSS)	If Novell file servers are used on the network, HP DSS can write files into network
	folders and support network fax folders that reside on Novell servers. The Novell
	client software must be installed on the network and be configured correctly
	before Novell-specific attributes can be configured in HP DSS.
