Step 4: Configure the NIC from the desired platform 
 
With the exception of TCP/IP, it is not necessary to reconfigure the NIC 
unless its default parameters are unacceptable. We recommend that 
you verify that the printer functions on your network before you modify 
existing NIC parameters. 
The use of TCP/IP requires only that you enter an appropriate IP 
address at the printer’s display panel or by using one of the NIC’s 
configuration utilities. 
In Macintosh environments, you may wish to change the printer’s 
default name (the NIC’s unique Ethernet hardware address) to a name 
that is more recognizable on your network. 
 
NIC Configuration Utilities:
 
See Appendix A for information on using the following utilities to configure 
the NIC.
configuring NIC parameters such as the TCP/IP Address from the 
printer’s display panel.
configuring the NIC from Windows platforms using a Web browser, 
XAdmin, or Telnet.
configuring the NIC from Macintosh platforms using a Web browser or 
Telnet. You may be able to use the LaserWriter utilities provided on 
Macintosh systems to modify the printer’s name over AppleTalk name 
and its zone. 
configuring the NIC from Unix workstations using a Web browser or 
Telnet.
using the serial interface on the NIC faceplate for configuration and 
troubleshooting.
 
Step 5: Configure the print servers
 
Determine if server print queues will be used, and configure the 
appropriate Novell or NT servers. 
 
Step 6: Configure the printer on the workstations.
 
Follow the appropriate steps to add a printer to each workstation that will 
send jobs to the printer. Refer to the platform specific chapters to 
configure the workstations.
