for each PC on which you are installing the client software.
If you do not know these items, refer to the discussion in “Understanding
PhaserLink Printing Software fundamental concepts” on page 2 for more details, or
contact your System Administrator or other source of technical support at your
company.

send email
: When prompted for the SMTP Hostname during installation,
enter this IP address. You can enter either the numerical IP address (such
as 123.45.67.89) or the DNS name (such as mycompany.com) for the email
server. If you specify a DNS name, be sure that the client is configured to
use DNS to resolve the DNS name to a numeric IP address. Also, be sure
that the client email account is configured to include the gateway address
(the IP address of the router).

print jobs
