EX7750 on a network with UNIX workstations
Important note about the remote printer name
Whichever UNIX system you use, the name used for the remote printer (or 
rp
 in the 
/etc/printcap 
file) in configuring the EX7750 must be one of the following
:
print
hold
The remote printer name is also used when setting up your Windows 2000 server or 
Windows 2000/XP workstation to connect to the EX7750 over TCP/IP. Enter the 
remote printer name when you set up your Windows printer, as the “Name of printer 
or Print queue on that (lpd host) server” in the Add LPR Compatible Printer dialog 
box.
For the Windows 2000/XP printer driver, enter the remote printer name for Queue 
Name under LPR Settings in the Configure Standard TCP/IP Port Monitor 
dialog box.
Setting up the EX7750 on TCP/IP networks
Every machine (host) on a TCP/IP network, including the EX7750, must have 
a unique 32-bit internet address (IP address). Contact your network administrator 
to obtain an address for the EX7750. Workstations on a TCP/IP network 
can print directly to the EX7750 as a remote printer, or can print to a Windows server 
or UNIX workstation acting as a print server. Since the EX7750 spools jobs and acts as 
a print server, there is no advantage in placing another print server between a 
workstation and the EX7750. If you choose to do so, however, there is no difference in 
setup except that a client machine does not have its own spooling area.
