Installation and Service Guide: Color Controller E-46A
Installing Hardware
•
Verify with the site administrator that the network is functioning before you attach the E-46A.
•
Make sure that the configuration requirements specified in
Configuration and Setup
(which is part of the user
documentation set) have been met for remote computers and the network.
Setting customer expectations
When the site is ready, installation of the E-46A takes about one hour. Inform the customer of the following:
•
Some nodes on the network may be unavailable during installation.
•
The printer may be unavailable for up to one hour.
•
The site administrator must be available during the installation for network connectivity.
Equipment downtime and impact on the network can be minimized if the site administrator installs a network
connector for the E-46A and confirms network functionality with the connector in place before the date scheduled
for the E-46A installation.
•
The site administrator must make a networked computer available during the installation. The appropriate
software must be installed in advance. Documentation for the networked computer and network operating
software should be available.
•
The site administrator must install the user software shipped with the E-46A onto networked Windows and
Mac OS computers that print to the E-46A. Refer the site administrator to
Utilities
, which is part of the user
documentation set.

This document covers hardware installation and service and provides general information about connecting the
E-46A to the customer’s network. Network Setup and configuration information exceeds the scope of this document.
For Network Setup and configuration information, refer the site administrator to
