Configuring for AppleTalk Networks

WIndows NT Systems vs AppleTalk

Kodak supports printing using AppleTalk ONLY from Macintosh systems. Kodak does not recommend or support the use of AppleTalk printing from Windows NT systems.

Cautions and Limitations using NT AppleTalk

Unreliable and inconsistent results have been encountered in mixed Macintosh/Windows environments when NT servers are used to secure and/or limit access to AppleTalk resources. There is otherwise, no benefit for configuring the printer on an NT server as an AppleTalk printer since the Kodak printer supports other Windows compatible protocols such as.TCP/IP, NetBEUI, and Novell (IPX).

Using an NT server to configure and capture an AppleTalk printer may subsequently prevent the printer from showing up on Macintosh systems.

Kodak printers that are raster only will not show up on an AppleTalk network as LaserWriter printers. Therefore, they cannot be set up as NT AppleTalk printers.
