Administrator's Guide
This section gives instructions on setting up a networked Macintosh to share
the Customer CD-ROM with other networked Macintoshes and with
networked PCs. You can also skip this section and go directly to the User's
Guide for instructions on installing the printer driver end-user software on
your Macintosh.
A Macintosh computer on your Ethernet network needs no special
configuration to communicate with the printer as long as the printer is
enabled for AppleTalk. For instructions on configuring the printer so that it is
enabled for AppleTalk, see "Configuring the IBM Network Color Printer" on
page 6–1.
