Description of Configuration Process
Although the protocols and requirements of each network and operating system differ, generally each section tells you how to
Verify installation of printer and NEC 1765 software:
Each network uses a different combination of printer and NEC 1765 software. Before configuring your Silentwriter, make sure you’ve installed all necessary software.
Create a unique name or address for the printer: Each printer on the network must have a unique identifier or name. NetWare and AppleTalk networks use a printer name. TCP/IP networks rely on an IP address for unique identification. DLC networks use the MAC address. The configuration page includes this information. An example configuration page is shown on page
Establish the printer on the network and define a print queue: The queue manages documents arriving from different sources to ensure that documents from all users are printed efficiently.
