Using a Network with Various Types of Computers
If there are various types of computers on the network, network operations depend
on the type of computer being used.
For example, if you are using Windows XP and Macintosh computers, you will need
to specify the settings described in both "Sample Windows Network," on p. 1-8, and
"Sample Macintosh Network," on p. 1-9.
To use the e-mail/I-fax function, a TCP/IP protocol is required.
To use the data sending function, either the TCP/IP, NetWare, or NetBIOS protocol
is required.
After configuring the settings in accordance with Chapter 2, "Settings Common to
the Network Protocols," see the following, depending on the protocol:
•
Chapter 3, "Using a TCP/IP Network"
• Chapter 4, "Using a NetWare Network (Windows)"
•
Chapter 5, "Using a NetBIOS Network"
•
Chapter 6, "Using an AppleTalk Network (Macintosh)"
IMPORTANT
You can only use the e-mail/I-fax functions, or data sending functions for the machine if
the optional equipment is installed. For the equipment needed, see "Optional Equipment
and System Environment Requirements," on p. 1-2.
