Network Interface Card/Printer Installation Overview
Section 1: Determine the network protocol(s) to be used for
communicating to the Network Interface Card, the printer, the
workstation platform(s) that will be used for creating and sending
jobs to the printer, and any servers used to spool and manage
jobs sent to corresponding printer queues.
Section 2: Install the Network Interface Card in the Kodak printer.
Section3: Install the software for the Network Interface Card.
NOTE: It is not necessary to install Network Interface Card
software on Windows NT systems.
Section 4: Configure the network printer if necessary. Some
printers are programed from the printer’s front display panel, and
others are programed by downloading PostScript command files.
NOTE: We recommend that you use the default parameters until
the printer is functional on your network.
Section 5: Determine printer modes of operation to be used
based on the model of printer that was purchased. Install the
corresponding PostScript and/or Raster mode software. For print
servers (indirect printing), configure the printer on a pertinent
server platform using the desired protocol.
For user workstations, configure the printer to use a server’s print
queue (indirect printing), or to print (direct printing) directly to the
printer using the desired protocol.
Network Service and Protocol Installation
Windows NT supports network printing utilizing TCP/IP, AppleTalk
and/or Novel Netware IPX protocols. Using the network control
panel, the appropriate services (TCP/IP) and/or protocol
(AppleTalk) support must be installed prior to configuring printers.
