Token Ring Network Option
IPX/SPX installations
If your network uses IPX/SPX protocols with Token Ring, configure at least one
printer, one Fiery XJ Print Server, and one Fiery XJ Print Queue on the NetWare
server as described in “Configuring a NetWare server for printing” on page 4-3. You
can configure up to eight bindery servers and one NDS tree connection to the
Fiery XJ. This total is the same whether the Fiery XJ is connected by Token Ring, by
Ethernet, or by both. For more information, see “Setting up an NDS connection” on
page 4-5.
TCP/IP installations
If your network uses TCP/IP protocols with Token Ring, configure at least one printer
and one Fiery XJ queue on a Windows NT server (see “Configuring a
Windows NT 4.0 server to support the Fiery XJ” on page 4-18), or on a UNIX server
(see “Setting up the Fiery XJ on TCP/IP networks” on page 4-28).
Setting up Token Ring on the Fiery XJ
Token Ring Setup on the Control Panel is similar to Ethernet Setup. From Network
Setup, perform Port Setup, Protocol Setup, and Service Setup. The setups you need are
summarized in the table on page 2-11.

:
Connect the Token Ring cable before doing Fiery XJ Network Setup, so that the
Token Ring card can configure itself properly.
Setting up NetWare Windows clients
Client setup is exactly the same as for IPX clients using Ethernet. See “Setting up
NetWare Windows clients for printing” on page 4-16 for details.
