Setting up the DocuColor on TCP/IP networks

Every machine (host) on a TCP/IP network, including the DocuColor, must have a
unique 32-bit internet address (IP address). If the network is being set up for the first
time, it's a good idea to start out with addresses that can be used with the public
Internet. Contact your Internet service provider to obtain an address for the
DocuColor.
Workstations on a TCP/IP network can print directly to the DocuColor as a remote
printer, or can print to a Windows NT Server or a UNIX workstation acting as a print
server. Since the DocuColor spools jobs and acts as a print server, there is no advantage
in placing another print server between a workstation and the DocuColor. 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.
