:
1.
On the DocuColor 40 CP Control Panel, perform Server Setup, Network Setup and
Printer Setup to support TCP/IP printing.
Enter the options in Protocol Setup (IP address of the DocuColor 40 CP, Subnet
mask, and Gateway address).
2.
Register the IP address of the DocuColor 40 CP in the host name database used by
your system.
For installations that don’t have a network administrator or a central host name
database, add the DocuColor 40 CP to the
hosts
file on the Windows NT 4.0 server.
Also add it to the
hosts
file on any workstations that have TCP/IP loaded and will use
the DocuColor utilities.
Adding a DocuColor 40 CP entry to the Windows NT 4.0 hosts file
The
hosts
file maps remote devices to IP addresses. Host names are used in TCP/IP
environments to locate IP addresses. Users can then communicate with any device over
TCP/IP by using the host name rather than having to remember its IP address.
A generic
hosts
file is addedwhen you install TCP/IP support.

2.
Open the hosts file with any ASCII text editor such as Notepad (Windows) or Edit
(DOS).
3.
Type an entry for the DocuColor 40 CP (IP address and host name) similar to the other
entries in this file.
