2-18 Setting up Network Servers
The remote printer name is also used when setting up a Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/
Server 2003 workstation or Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 server to connect to
the Fiery over TCP/IP. Enter the remote printer name when you set up your
Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 printer, as the “Name of printer or print queue
on that (lpd host) server” in the Add LPR Compatible Printer dialog box.
For the Windows 2000/XP printer driver, enter the remote printer name for Queue
Name under LPR Settings in the Configure Standard TCP/IP Port Monitor
dialog
box.
Setting up the Fiery on TCP/IP networks
Every machine (host) on a TCP/IP network, including the Fiery, must have a unique
32-bit internet address (IP address). Contact your network administrator to obtain an
address for the Fiery. Workstations on a TCP/IP network can print directly to the
Fiery as a remote printer, or can print to a Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 server
or UNIX workstation acting as a print server. Since the Fiery spools jobs and acts as a
print server, there is no advantage in placing another print server between a
workstation and the Fiery. 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.
