5-19 ColorPASS on a network with UNIX workstations
Important note about the remote printer name
Whichever UNIX system you use, the name used for remote printer (or rp in the
/etc/printcap
file) in configuring the ColorPASS must be one of the following
:
print
hold
The remote printer name is also used when setting up your Windows NT 4.0
Workstation, Windows NT 4.0 Server, or Windows 2000 Professional to connect to
the ColorPASS over TCP/IP. Enter the remote printer name when you set up your
Windows NT 4.0 printer, as the “Name of printer or print queue on that (lpd host)
server” in the Add LPR Compatible Printer dialog box (see Getting Started).
Setting up the ColorPASS on TCP/IP networks
Every machine (host) on a TCP/IP network, including the ColorPASS, must have a
unique 32-bit internet address (IP address). Contact your network administrator to
obtain an address for the ColorPASS. Workstations on a TCP/IP network can print
directly to the ColorPASS as a remote printer, or can print to a Windows NT 4.0
server or UNIX workstation acting as a print server. Since the ColorPASS spools jobs
and acts as a print server, there is no advantage in placing another print server between
a workstation and the ColorPASS. If you choose to do so, however, there is no
difference in setup except that a client machine does not have its own spooling area.
