Before installation, the customer should be informed of the following:

  • Some nodes on the network may be unavailable for up to one hour.
  • Installation will take about 80 minutes (with Microcode) / 70 minutes (without Microcode).
  • The site administrator should be available during the installation for assistance with network connectivity issues.
  • Equipment downtime and impact on the network can be minimized if the site administrator installs a network node for the print server and confirms network connection for the print server installation.
  • The site administrator should have a networked computer available during the installation. The appropriate software should already be installed. Documentation for the networked computer and the network operating software should be available.
  • The site administrator should install the user software shipped with the print server (user documentation is also included) onto the networked PCs and Mac OS computers that will print to the print server.

  • This guide covers hardware installation and service. It provides general information on connecting the print server to the customer's network. For network setup and configuration information for the network administrator, refer to the instruction manual “Setup Guide".
