Component

Description

Software description

Network server running Windows 2000 Professional, Server, or Advanced Server; Windows XP Professional; or Windows Server 2003 Standard or Enterprise Server

Network

MFPs or digital senders

SMTP gateway

LAN fax server

The server contains the following components:

●HP DSS service

●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

Fast Ethernet 100Base-TX or Ethernet 10Base-T

An HP DSS server can support up to 250 MFPs or HP 9200C Digital Senders 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 Digital Sender or 8100C Digital Sender.

This gateway facilitates the e-mail and Internet-fax digital- sending options.

A LAN fax server is a network device that centrally handles the sending and receiving of fax jobs. HP DSS can be used to configure devices to route outgoing faxes to a LAN fax server.

LDAP server

FTP server

Domain controller/Novell directory server

An LDAP server is a directory server that contains recipients' names and e-mail addresses and supports LDAP. HP DSS uses the LDAP server to obtain addresses for device users, and can also use it for user authentication.

An FTP server can be used as a destination for documents that have been scanned.

HP DSS can use a domain controller or Novell directory server to support user authentication and to validate the user's login information.

Network printer	A network printer can be set up as a destination for
	documents that have been scanned.

Figure 2-3 HP DSS architecture depicts the HP DSS components.
