When the Fiery is connected to a network, it behaves as a networked PostScript 
printer. The built-in Ethernet interface on the Fiery supports the following 
network protocols:

• AppleTalk

• TCP/IP (the lpd, nbt, and http protocols)

TCP/IP stands for Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. The lpd 
protocol is the standard TCP/IP printing protocol. The nbt protocol supports 
Windows (SMB) printing. The http protocol is commonly used for Web pages on 
the Internet and on intranets.

• IPX/SPX (Novell)

IPX/SPX stands for Internetwork Packet Exchange/Sequenced Packet Exchange. 

These protocols (rules that enable computers on a network to communicate with each 
other) are supported on Mac OS, Windows, and UNIX platforms and can run 
concurrently on the same cable. Workstations that use other protocols can print 
through a server that uses one of the protocols mentioned. A Token Ring option is also 
available. This option supports the TCP/IP and IPX/SPX protocols. The Fiery is 
auto-sensing, and can handle all of these connections simultaneously.

When you add the Fiery to a network, it is assumed that a network administrator has 
already installed a network cabling system and connected workstations and servers.
