Network Printing with Tektronix Color Printers 1

Obtaining networking software for Phaser 360 printers

You obtain the networking software from the CD-ROM by running the installer:

1.Locate and run the installer on the printer’s CD-ROM. On a PC, the file is SETUP.EXE; on a Macintosh, it is Phaser 360 Installer.

2.When you are prompted to select Easy Install or Custom Install, select Custom Install.

3.In the Custom Install dialog box, check the box for Network Utilities.

4.If you are running the installer on a computer that has NetWare software installed, you can also check the boxes to install the PhaserShare Administrator software. For more information on the PhaserShare Administrator software, see Chapter 5, “PhaserShare Administrator Software for NetWare Networks”.

5.To complete the installation, follow the on-screen prompts.
