InfoPrint Manager LAN connection

AFP SUMMARY

InfoPrint Manager LAN connection

You must use the TCP/IP network protocol to connect your DocuPrint IPS printers by a LAN through InfoPrint Manager. No other network protocol is supported.

TCP/IP connection: Ethernet

For the Ethernet TCP/IP connection, you must have an Ethernet card installed inside the RS/6000. A router directs the jobs being run on the Ethernet to the appropriate device.
