33-8 Preparing for GA-1120 Setup

About Setup

Setup configures the GA-1120 to communicate with other devices and manage print jobs. You must perform Setup the first time you turn on the GA-1120 after new system software is loaded, or any time Server software is reinstalled. An initial Setup using default settings is adequate for allowing users to print to the GA-1120 and to use the WebTools. When your network or user printing environment changes, you can change Setup options accordingly.

The first time you perform Setup, you must use the GA-1120 Control Panel. Configure, at a minimum, Server Setup, Network Setup, and Printer Setup, in that sequence. After the initial Setup, you can change Setup options from the Control Panel (page 4-2) or Command WorkStation. Most Setup options can be set using any of these methods.

NOTE: Configuring and monitoring the Windows NT functions on the GA-1120 require the NA option. For more information, contact your authorized service/support technician.

If you do not configure the remaining Setups, the GA-1120 uses default settings. You need to make settings appropriate for the printing environment at your site.

Network server setup requirements

For Novell, and Windows NT 4.0/2000 (using TCP/IP) networks, you must configure the network servers for printing to the GA-1120 before you configure GA-1120 network settings in Setup. For chapter references to information about network server setup, see the diagrams in Chapter 1.

To configure network settings in Setup, you must have a live network connection, so the GA-1120 can query the network for zones, servers, and server-based queues.

Whenever the configuration of the GA-1120, the copier, or the network itself changes at your site, you can alter individual settings to correspond to the changed environment. Changing network or port settings may require that you make changes to other Setup options, as well.
