Step 4: Configure the NIC from the desired platform
• With the exception of TCP/IP, it is not necessary to reconfigure the NIC
unless its default parameters are unacceptable. We recommend that
you verify that the printer functions on your network before you modify
existing NIC parameters.
• The use of TCP/IP requires only that you enter an appropriate IP
address at the printer’s display panel or by using one of the NIC’s
configuration utilities.
• In Macintosh environments, you may wish to change the printer’s
default name (the NIC’s unique Ethernet hardware address) to a name
that is more recognizable on your network.
NIC Configuration Utilities:
See Appendix A for information on using the following utilities to configure
the NIC.
• configuring NIC parameters such as the TCP/IP Address from the
printer’s display panel.
• configuring the NIC from Windows platforms using a Web browser,
XAdmin, or Telnet.
• configuring the NIC from Macintosh platforms using a Web browser or
Telnet. You may be able to use the LaserWriter utilities provided on
Macintosh systems to modify the printer’s name over AppleTalk name
and its zone.
• configuring the NIC from Unix workstations using a Web browser or
Telnet.
• using the serial interface on the NIC faceplate for configuration and
troubleshooting.
Step 5: Configure the print servers
Determine if server print queues will be used, and configure the
appropriate Novell or NT servers.
Step 6: Configure the printer on the workstations.
Follow the appropriate steps to add a printer to each workstation that will
send jobs to the printer. Refer to the platform specific chapters to
configure the workstations.
