Network Installation

Before you begin:

Note:

•Make sure that your network is ready to accept a new node.

•Any network configuration should always involve the network manager.

1.Record the serial number of your NPS 530/532. You will need this number for the setup.

2.NPS 530 only: Connect your NPS 530 to the network using a twisted-pair (10baseT) Ethernet cable.

3.NPS 532 only: Connect your NPS 532 to the network using a thin- wire (10base2) Ethernet cable.

Each NPS print server is preconfigured with a unique Node Address (identical to the serial number). You can change this to a Locally Administrated Address, see page 68.

The installation is now completed. Proceed with the setup sections for NetWare, Windows, OS/2, Unix and/or Macintosh.
