Getting Started Guide
5.6 Installing the Viewer and Printer Support on Windows NT4.0
The Splash CD-ROM that shipped with the color server contains a folder named Winviewer.
This folder has all the utilities and files you need to install and setup the Viewer and printer
description files on the workstation.
The Microsoft Client for Microsoft networks and TCP/IP protocols must be installed on the
workstation in order to run the Viewer. These protocols also support printing to the Splash M
Series.
If you are installing the Viewer and printer files on a non-US English Windows NT4.0
workstation, you may optionally use the installation procedure in Section 5.6.3. This
procedure contains extra steps, but it will minimize the amount of US English that appears
in the Printer Properties dialog box on the workstation.
