33-32 Setting up Network Servers

4.To verify the TCP/IP connection, ping the IP address or the host name. From any com- puter on the network, at the command prompt, type:

ping <IP address>

Type the DocuColor IP address assigned in DocuColor Network Setup.

After the DocuColor is set up as a network printer, you can also ping the name you gave to the DocuColor

ping <hostname>

The server should respond with a message such as

<IP address> is alive

Some systems will respond with a continuous display of output from the IP address. To stop the output, type Control-C.You can use the ping command at any time.

Printing and managing print jobs

UNIX printing commands and options are detailed in the manual pages for your sys- tem. Some examples are given in the DocuColor User Guide.

TO PRINT TO THE DOCUCOLOR:

On a UNIX system running SunOS 4 or other BSD-based variant, use the lpr command to send a job to the DocuColor.

On a UNIX system running Solaris 2 or any System V implementation of UNIX, use the lp command to send a job to the DocuColor.

Windows NT users with the TCP/IP protocol loaded can send print jobs to a DocuColor from their applications or from a command prompt.

Printing from applications uses the Windows NT PostScript driver. This gives Windows NT users a larger selection of print options than printing from the com- mand line.
