Apple AppleShare IP 6.0 - Manual (Page 66)

66 Chapter 2
Ideally, you should upgrade all Macintosh clients on your network to use the same version of
the printer driver. The Print Server also accepts connections from users of Apple II
GS
computers and Newton devices.
To check the version number of the printer driver, select the LaserWriter icon in the
Extensions folder (inside the System Folder) and choose Get Info from the File menu.
Windows Client Services
AppleShare IP 6.0 provides file sharing (via AFP and SMB), FTP, Web, mail, and print service
for Windows 95 and Windows NT users.
Note: As the AppleShare IP administrator, you should be aware of the differences between
administering for Windows and Mac OS users to avoid file sharing problems. For Windows
file sharing and naming guidelines, see the Windows File Sharing section in the Web & File
Server section of AppleShare IP Help.
Windows File Sharing Service
Windows 95 and Windows NT computers have built-in support for the Windows file sharing
protocol, SMB, supported by AppleShare IP 6.0.
Web and FTP Service
Windows 3.0 and later, Windows 95, and Windows NT users can connect to the Web & File
Server via any standard Web browser or FTP application.
Mail Service
Windows 3.0 and later, Windows 95, and Windows NT users can use the Mail Server if they
have installed a POP or IMAP and SMTP-compliant client mail application.
Print Service
Windows 95 users can use the Print Server if they have installed an AppleTalk-compatible
printer driver or an LPR-compatible TCP/IP print driver. ( Windows NT computers have built-
in LPR support.)
Windows 95 users can print using any third-party AppleTalk-compatible print software, or
TCP-compatible printers that support the LPD/LPR protocol.
Note: The Print Server does not support secure printing for Windows clients.
