E-750 on the network
When the E-750 is connected to a network, it behaves as a networked PostScript
printer. The built-in Ethernet interface on the E-750 supports the following
network protocols:
• AppleTalk
• TCP/IP (the lpd, nbt, and http protocols)
TCP/IP stands for Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. The lpd
protocol is the standard TCP/IP printing protocol. The nbt protocol supports
Windows (SMB) printing. The port 9100 is the printer server port number to
publish print connections between the print server and a remote computer. The http
protocol is commonly used for Web pages on the Internet and on intranets. The
http protocol also supports IPP printing.
• IPX/SPX (Novell)
IPX/SPX stands for Internetwork Packet Exchange/Sequenced Packet Exchange.
These protocols (rules that enable computers on a network to communicate with each
other) are supported on Mac OS, Windows, and UNIX platforms and can run
concurrently on the same cable. Workstations that use other protocols can print
through a server that uses one of the protocols mentioned.
When you add the E-750 to a network, it is assumed that a network administrator has
already installed a network cabling system and connected workstations and servers.
