Setting Up the Printer

Be very careful in setting up IP addresses which are
controlled as an entire system. Consult your network
administrator before performing any setup on IP addresses.

Depending on the network environments, some require
subnet mask and gateway to be set up. Consult your network
administrator and set up the necessary items.

Setting Up the Computer

Be very careful in setting up IP addresses which are
controlled as an entire system. Consult your network
administrator before performing any setup on IP addresses.

Before performing any network setup (such as the IP
address) to a host running under NIS (Network Information
Service), consult the NIS administrator.

When setting a UNIX workstation, note the following also:

The setup procedures and commands may vary according to
different versions of OS. Refer to the manuals that came with
the workstation for the details.

To setup the printer, the user must be a superuser. Contact
your network administrator to perform the setup if you do
not have the authority of a superuser.

The print language/mode is determined by the printer model
and configuration. Before setting a UNIX workstation, check
the available languages/modes.

To specify multiple entries for the logical printer, make sure
each printer entry is assigned its own unique spool directory.
If a single spool directory is used for multiple printer entries,
the printer select option may not function correctly.
