ES3640e MFP EFI Configuration Guide - 27
Typical system combinations are:
• Print server running Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 Server;
clients running Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/Server 2003
Workstation and Windows 98/Me
• Print server running Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/Server 2003
Workstation and clients running Windows 98/Me
With TCP/IP protocols loaded, you can run Fiery utilities and Fiery
WebTools from a Windows computer.
Tips for experts—Windows with TCP/IP
Setting up printing from Windows using TCP/IP protocols is similar
to setting up UNIX workstations with TCP/IP. When TCP/IP
network connections are made from Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/
Server 2003 workstations, note the following:
•
Make sure you have a valid IP address for the Fiery and any
workstations that will print to it or run the Fiery utilities.
•
In Fiery Setup, enable TCP/IP and enter the IP address, subnet
mask, and gateway address for the Fiery.
Enter these addresses manually or use DHCP or BOOTP protocols
to assign them dynamically.
•
Make sure the Fiery name and address are listed in a domain
name server (DNS) or host name database used by your system.
•
Make sure the system host table includes the correct internal
name for the Fiery as a remote printer.

•
For Windows, install the appropriate printer driver files on the
Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 server.
For more information, see the
User Software Installation Guide
.
•
Repeat the installation for all users who print to the Fiery.
Each server and workstation running the Fiery utilities with TCP/IP
also needs the TCP/IP protocol and the Fiery utility software.
