5. TCP/IP
This chapter will help you to configure and use the FastPrint
Server in the TCP/IP environment.
5.1. Software requirements
The FastPrint Server can work with most UNIX systems and Windows NT 3.5 or later.
You will need the following software:
•
TCP, IP, telnet, ftp (option - BOOTP, rarp)
•
Either LPD (for NT and Unix) or C Compiler (for PSfilter under Unix).
5.2. FastPrint Server configuration
Note: The FastPrint Server should be configured FIRST.
You may use any of the following methods to configure your FastPrint:
♦ FPSAdmin
This management program requires Windows 95 or Windows NT. See Chapter 8 -
Management Tools for details.
♦ WebAdmin
This management program runs on an NT Server and is accessed by a web browser.
See Chapter 8 - Management Tools for details.
♦ FTP (File Transfer Protocol)
With FTP, you copy the configuration file from the FastPrint, edit it, and send it
back. Further information on using FTP can be found on pages 36 to 37.
5.2.1. IP address configuration
In the TCP/IP environment, IP addresses are essential. You must enter the following IP
addresses. (The entry in brackets shows the line number and token in the FastPrint’s
configuration file.)
IP address
[4000 IP_ADDR] The FastPrint’s IP address. (See the next section.)
Gateway address
[4001 GATEWAY] If your network segment has a router, enter the router
address here.
If there is no router, leave the address as 0.0.0.0.
Subnet mask
[4002 MASK] If the gateway address above is 0.0.0.0, the subnet mask
should also be left at 0.0.0.0.
If you have a router, enter the subnet mask for the
segment to which the FastPrint is attached.
