O VERIFY THE CONNECTION
•
To see if the printer responds to its address, use the ping command.
Use the format:
ping <IP address>
Use the printer IP address assigned in Network Setup. After the printer has been
given a hostname by your network administrator, you can also ping the name you
gave it:
ping <hostname>
The server should respond with a message such as:
<IP address> is alive.
Some systems will respond with a continuous display of output from the IP
address. To stop the output, type Control-C.

Setting up TCP/IP clients for printing

If the printer is being added to an existing network, each TCP/IP client is already
running TCP/IP client software.
The Ci1000 supports TCP/IP client software on UNIX workstations, PC
compatibles, and Macintosh computers. With Macintosh computers, however, it
is easiest to use the built-in AppleTalk protocol to communicate directly with the
printer.
If the client workstation is a PC running Windows, set up the printer as a
Windows PostScript printer by installing the PostScript printer driver, as
described in Chapter 5. For setting up your networking software, see the
documentation for your networking environment.
