Network installation
A networked printer is connected to a network without a computer (PC) between the printer and network.
Depending on printer options and your needs, the printer can be connected to a print server and then to the
network. A PC can connect to several networked printers at a time, and several PCs can connect to one
printer.
To connect a printer to a network, you need the following:
•
An Ethernet network that uses the TCP/IP protocol and can run at 10 megabits per second (also called
10base-T), or a faster network (such as 100 megabits per second) that automatically switches to the printer
speed of 10 megabits per second
.
•
A CP60 Card Printer with the Built-In Ethernet feature.
•
An
Ethernet
cable to connect the printer or print server to the network. An Ethernet cable is not supplied with
the printer.
•
Network configuration utility. Network support personnel use utilities to set up and monitor the network and
devices on the network.
•
PC connected to and communicating with the network.
— From the PC, you will set up the printer on the network and verify that the printer is connected to and
communicating with the network. The printer was tested with PCs running the Windows XP operating
systems and the CP Driver. CP60 printers with the Open Card option were also tested with a PC running
the Knoppix Linux Boot CD-ROM (version 3.3).
— When setting up the printer using an operating system with permissions, such as Windows XP, 2000, or
NT, make sure you are logged in as the Administrator. If networking is set up on the PC, log into the
network.
