Sample Macintosh Network
In Mac OS 8/9, the AppleTalk (EtherTalk) protocol is used. In Mac OS X, either the AppleTalk
(EtherTalk), TCP/IP, or NetBIOS (NetBIOS over TCP/IP) protocol can be used.
To use the e-mail/I-fax function or to send data, the TCP/IP protocol is required.
After configuring the settings in accordance with "Connecting the Machine to a Computer or
Network(p.2-3)," "Interface Settings(p.2-10)," or "Communication Environment Setup(p.2-13),"
specify an AppleTalk (Macintosh), TCP/IP, or NetBIOS network, depending on the protocol.
Remark
Optional equipment is required to use the e-mail/I-fax
functions, or data sending functions for the machine.
For the equipment needed, see "Optional Equipment
and System Requirements(p.1-2)."
