Cisco Systems C9800 GA Manual De Usuario

This chapter describes environments that typically include one or more network 
servers—Novell NetWare servers and Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 servers—
that share printing to the Fiery. It describes setting up servers that use IPX/SPX or 
TCP/IP protocols for communicating with the Fiery. In addition, it includes 
guidelines for setting up direct communication from Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/
Server 2003 workstations or UNIX workstations, where a network server is optional. 
This chapter also outlines the requirements for users to print to the Fiery and run Fiery 
utilities and Fiery WebTools.

The Fiery can accept jobs concurrently from NetWare, Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 
2003, and AppleShare servers, as well as jobs sent directly from Windows or UNIX 
workstations. Because AppleShare servers require no special configuration, they are not 
discussed in this chapter, except for use in a Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/Server 2003 
environment (see 

 in the following section).

If your network is based on Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003, proceed to the 
following section. For information on UNIX workstations, proceed to 

 

When a Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/Server 2003 computer is configured to connect 
to the Fiery using TCP/IP, it can print directly to the Fiery. If the computer shares the 
printer over the network, it is acting as a print server to Windows clients. Client 
computers print to the Fiery by printing to the Windows NT 4.0/2000/Server 2003 
print server. You can then monitor and control printing at the Windows NT 4.0/
2000/Server 2003 server computer.
