3-25 Configuring a Windows NT server to support the DocuColor
Your Windows NT, Windows for Workgroups, and Windows 95 clients have access to
the shared printer through their applications. They will not be able to change settings
in the Printer Properties dialog box.
Configuring Windows NT clients
Each client of a Windows NT server is already using a network protocol to
communicate with the server. Each client can print to the DocuColor if it has been
shared by a Windows NT Server or Windows NT Workstation computer. In that case
the client does not have to use the same network protocol to connect to the
Windows NT server as the server uses to communicate with the DocuColor.

• For Windows 95 clients, before printing, double-click the Windows NT server icon in
the Network Neighborhood window, and double-click the printer name.
You will be prompted to set up the printer. When you choose to set it up, the Add
Printer Wizard dialog box appears. Follow the steps in the Getting Started.
• For Windows NT 3.51 Workstation clients, before printing, open the Print Manager.
From the Printer menu, choose Connect To Printer. Select a printer from the Shared
Printers list, or double-click a network, workgroup, or server icon to show additional
printers.
• For Windows NT 4.0 Workstation clients, before printing, connect to the print server
computer and select the DocuColor. Right mouse click and choose the Open command.
When prompted, click Yes to have Windows set up the printer.
After clients have selected the printer, they can choose it from the Print Setup, Page
Setup or Print dialog box of their application. Clients can change printing options for
their own job, but printer properties are grayed and not available for changing. When a
client chooses Print, the job is transmitted to the Windows NT print server, and from
there to the selected queue on the DocuColor. The job is listed in the Print Manager
on the client workstation, and the administrator can track it in the DocuColor window
in the Print Manager on the Windows NT print server.
