33-31 Using AppleTalk with Windows NT

Setting up the DocuColor on TCP/IP networks

Every machine (host) on a TCP/IP network, including the DocuColor, must have a unique 32-bit internet address (IP address). If the network is being set up for the first time, it’s a good idea to start out with addresses that can be used with the public Internet. Contact your Internet service provider to obtain an address for the DocuColor.

Workstations on a TCP/IP network can print directly to the DocuColor as a remote printer, or can print to a Windows NT Server or a UNIX workstation acting as a print server. Since the DocuColor spools jobs and acts as a print server, there is no advantage in placing another print server between a workstation and the DocuColor. If you choose to do so, however, there is no difference in setup except that a client machine does not have its own spooling area.

TO SET UP DOCUCOLOR PRINTING ON UNIX SYSTEMS:

1.Specify the appropriate settings in the DocuColor Server Setup.

To access DocuColor Setup, see page 2-2.

2.Specify the appropriate settings in the DocuColor Network Setup.

Run the setups listed in the table on page 2-9 and enter a valid IP address, subnet mask and gateway address for the DocuColor.

3.Specify the appropriate settings in the DocuColor Printer Setup.

Publish the Print queue.

TO SET UP TCP/IP FOR COMMUNICATION WITH THE DOCUCOLOR:

1.A superuser (with root login) must add the DocuColor to the network’s IP host table or other system database of network printers.

2.In the file or utility used by your network, specify the remote printer name, the print server protocol, the queue, and the spool file for the DocuColor name you assigned.

3.Make the DocuColor available as a printer to other network users.
