4-25 Using AppleTalk with Windows NT 4.0

Using AppleTalk with Windows NT 4.0
Windows NT 4.0 computers can also use AppleTalk for printing to the Fiery X2.
When creating a printer that you are sharing with AppleTalk users, do not "capture"
the printer. Capturing the printer forces all users to print to the server rather than
directly to the printer. If you capture the printer, Fiery X2 connections will not appear
in the Mac OS Chooser.
Loading the AppleTalk protocol on a Windows NT 4.0 server is very similar to loading
TCP/IP. If you are only using AppleTalk, you do not need an IP address or a
Windows NT hosts file entry for the Fiery X2 connections.
Mac OS users can print directly to the Fiery X2 and should install the AdobePS printer
driver for the Mac OS and the Fiery X2 PPD. All of these installations are described in
Getting Started.
For the Windows NT 4.0 computers, install the Windows NT 4.0 PostScript Printer
driver and the Fiery X2 PPD. Windows 95 and Windows 3.1x clients should use the
Adobe PostScript Printer driver supplied with the Fiery X2 user software.
Configuring the Fiery X2 and clients for Fiery WebTools
The Fiery WebTools provide access to many Fiery X2 functions via the Internet (or
your company's intranet), providing additional flexibility in remote management.
