Network printing environment
4-4 System Overview Guide
The Macintosh uses Printer Access Protocol (PAP) to
communicate with one or more DocuPrint printers. For
convenience, your internet may be divided into zones. A zone
can be any logical grouping of individual workstations and
printers. Your network administrator defines your zone when
setting up the network.
Shown below are the workstations, networking options, and job
submission methods available for each client.
