1.7 Protocols

¥ The NIC supports TCP/IP, Novell IPX, EtherTalk and NetBeui/NetBios
protocols.
¥ Users can print in either PostScript or raster mode.
IMPORTANT: Printing in raster mode using EtherTalk is possible only

1.8 Network Performance

Network performance depends heavily on the topology of a network
(networked elements, that is, the # of users/nodes, inter-connectivity and
conÞguration of hubs, switches, subnets, routers, etc.) and will vary for
speciÞc environments.
A color-capable printer accepting large print jobs (1 to 100 Mbytes) may
be a critical factor in environments where network utilization optimization
is critical. A Kodak printer with a Kodak 10/100 NIC operating in a 100
Mbit environment may drastically improve your networkÕs performance
because it will only require a fraction (1/10) of the subnet network
bandwidth that would be necessary if it was operating at 10 Mbits.
