Supported Network Protocols and Frame Types
The DP-C106 supports TCP/IP, IPX/SPX, and AppleTalk protocols
(rules that enable computers on a network to communicate with each
other). These protocols are supported on Mac OS, Windows, and
UNIX platforms. All can be simultaneously active. Workstations that
use other protocols can print through a server that uses one of the
protocols mentioned.
The following table lists supported protocols, printing services, frame
