Connecting to the Network
Stages of installation on the network
Installation can be performed by a network or printing administrator. The stages of a
successful installation are:
•
Physically connecting the DocuColor 40 CP to a functioning network
Prepare a network node for the DocuColor 40 CP—obtain cable and route it to the
location where the DocuColor 40 CP will be installed (near the copier) and attach the
cable to the network interface of the DocuColor 40 CP. See page 1-11 for details.
•
Configuring the network server
When network servers are required, you need to configure those servers to provide
client access to the DocuColor 40 CP as a color PostScript printer. See Chapter 4 for
information on configuring network servers in Windows and UNIX network environ-
ments.
•
Setting up the DocuColor 40 CP
Configure the DocuColor 40 CP for your particular printing and network
environment. First read “Before you proceed” in the Introduction, and then see
Chapter 2 for details.
•
Preparing client workstations for printing
Install the files needed for printing, install additional user software, and connect the
client to the DocuColor 40 CP over the network. These steps are described in Getting
Started, and some information is provided in Chapter 4 of this manual.
•
Administering the DocuColor 40 CP
Monitor and maintain system performance and troubleshoot problems that arise. See
Chapter 5 and the Job Management Guide for details.
