Printer Name
Notes
If you have more than one
IBM Network Color Printer
on your network and there
are any AppleTalk users, it
is very important that you
give each printer a unique
name.
Descriptive names are
best. Macintosh
Macintosh and other
AppleTalk users will see
this name for each enabled
printer queue.
For example:
IBMnetcolor_Print
IBMnetcolor_Direct
IBMnetcolor_Hold
To avoid confusion It is
very important that each
IBM Network Color Printer
on your network have a
unique name.
Windows NT
• If you use AppleTalk to
connect to the printer

printer queue. See the
Macintosh column.
• If you use TCP/IP to
connect to the printer,
ignore this setting.
