Configuring for AppleTalk Networks
Part No. 6B4389 June 1999 8-3
WIndows NT Systems vs AppleTalk
Kodak supports printing using AppleTalk ONLY from Macintosh
systems. Kodak does not recommend or support the use of
AppleTalk printing from Windows NT systems.
Cautions and Limitations using NT AppleTalk
• Unreliable and inconsistent results have been encountered in
mixed Macintosh/Windows environments when NT servers
are used to secure and/or limit access to AppleTalk resources.
There is otherwise, no benefit for configuring the printer on an
NT server as an AppleTalk printer since the Kodak printer
supports other Windows compatible protocols such as.TCP/IP,
NetBEUI, and Novell (IPX).
• Using an NT server to configure and capture an AppleTalk
printer may subsequently prevent the printer from showing up
on Macintosh systems.
• Kodak printers that are raster only will not show up on an
AppleTalk network as LaserWriter printers. Therefore, they
cannot be set up as NT AppleTalk printers.
