5-22 Ethernet Setup bb ______________________________________
Install the Adobe PostScript Driver
The Adobe PostScript printer driver must be installed and configured
on every workstation using the printer. See chapter 3 (Macintosh) or
4 (PC) for instructions.
Line Printer Configuration
The Ethernet interface’s Line Printer option allows you to configure
your printer to communicate using TCP/IP (Transmission Control
Protocol/Internet Protocol). TCP/IP provides a method of
communication between different types of networks. It is the
Internet’s standard for data transmission and is becoming more
widely used on all types of computers and operating systems.
The following steps are required to set up your printer to communicate
using the Line Printer interface on the Ethernet board. Chapter 2
covers Step 1, this section covers steps 2 through 4.
1. Connect your XANTÉ printer to the network through the
Ethernet port.
2. Configure the Line Printer interface on your printer.
3. Set the TCP/IP address of the printer.
4. Configure the printer setup on the network.
Configure the Line Printer Interface
Use printer front panel menus or the Macintosh XANTÉ Command
Center version to enable your printer’s Line Printer interface, if
necessary. See chapter 6 to use front panel menus. See “Set the
TCP/IP Address” later in this section to use Command Center.
