Setting Up the AXIS 1440 on the Network

The AXIS NetPilot Installation Wizard enables you to install and
configure the AXIS 1440 for your network quickly and easily. You
can use it to configure the print server for multiple network
protocols: NetWare, NetBIOS/NetBEUI, TCP/IP, SNMP, and
Apple EtherTalk. However, you must run it on a Windows
workstation (or an OS/2 workstation in a Win OS/2 window)
connected to a NetWare or NetBIOS/NetBEUI network.

If your network only supports TCP/IP, you can use ARP, DHCP,
RARP, or BOOTP to assign an IP (Internet) address. (See Section 3
in the AXIS 1440 User’s Manual for more information.) Then go to
Setting Up Windows Workstations later in this guide to configure the
printer ports for your Windows workstations.
