6 UNIX TCP/IP
76 Xerox WorkCentre 7232/7242 System Administration Guide
If you encounter problems during the installation of the machine, refer to the Problem
Solving chapter for assistance.
CAUTION: Do not connect the network cable to the machine until instructed to
do so.
UNIX TCP/IP Environments
System configuration
The machine uses the Line Printer Daemon Protocol (LPD) that supports TCP/IP as the
transport protocol. With the LPD, use the machine as a UNIX network printer.
The LPD supports spool mode, this is where print jobs from clients are spooled once
before output. It also supports non-spool mode, this is where print jobs are output
sequentially, without spooling.
Target computers
The target computers are as follows.
• Workstation or personal computer with RFC 1179 Line Printer Daemon Protocol
Interface
The LPD is available on the following interfaces:
• Ethernet 100Base-TX
• Ethernet 10Base-T
The applicable frame types conform to Ethernet II (Ethernet interface).
UNIX TCP/IP Installation
This section explains how to install the machine in a UNIX TCP/IP environment.
Installation Procedure
There are three stages.
Network Communication Setup
The machine needs to be set up and configured for TCP/IP.
Workstation Setup
The workstation OS needs to be configured for the machine.
Test Print
A print job should be submitted to make sure that the machine has been installed and
configured correctly.
