PCL printer drivers
Printer drivers allow the computer to communicate with the printer using a printer language. Two kinds of PCL printer drivers, PCL 6 and PCL 5e, are included in the CD-ROM that comes with this printer. We recommend the PCL 6 as your first choice. However, some of your applications might require installation of the PCL 5e printer driver. In this case, you can install PCL 5e in addition to the PCL 6.
P.51 “Windows 95/98 - Installing the PCL 6/5e Printer Driver” P.52 “Windows 3.1x - Installing the PCL 6/5e Printer Driver” P.53 “Windows NT 4.0 - Installing the PCL 6/5e Printer Driver”
Adobe PostScript Printer Drivers and PPD files
Adobe PostScript printer drivers and the PPD files are included in the CD­ROM that comes with this printer. Adobe PostScript printer driver allows the computer to communicate with the printer using a printer language. The PPD files allow the printer driver to enable the printer specific functions.

Configuring the Printer for the Network

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)

The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) provides a mechanism for delivering IP configuration parameters, including the IP address, Subnet mask and default gateway, to devices (hosts) on an IP network. A DHCP server man­ages the pool of available IP addresses and grants device requests for an IP ad­dress.
At power-up, the Network Interface Board broadcasts a DHCP request for an IP address. If a DHCP server is present the request might be processed, and an IP address might be returned to the Network Interface Board. Upon receipt of the IP address, the Network Interface Board resets, and prints a network configura­tion page. The network configuration page might list the new IP address (and Subnet mask and default gateway). Once an IP address has been assigned to the Network Interface Board, it might no longer broadcast DHCP requests.
Important
Network Interface Board IP address assignment by DHCP works only if the Network Interface Board does not have an existing IP address.
The DHCP server leases a temporary IP address which expires after a period, or leases a permanent or unlimited lease which does not expire.
Devices that are granted a temporary lease are notified before the lease expires and asked if they would like to extend the lease. The Network Interface Board continues extending its lease indefinitely (unless prohibited by your DHCP server configuration) and thus maintain a consistent IP address.
Important
If the Network Interface Board is not turned on or is not connected to the net­work during the period when the DHCP server is sending requests to extend the lease, the lease will not be extended. The DHCP server might cancel the lease and might assign the IP address to another device. Therefore, it is highly recommended to explicitly reserve an IP address for the Network Interface Board in your DHCP server configuration.
If you prefer not to use DHCP for IP address assignment, it can be disabled using the NIB Setup Tool. The NIB Setup Tool allows you to use a Wizard or a Prop­erty Sheet to configure the Network Interface Board. Use the Property Sheet to disable this feature. After you select the Network Interface Board with the NIB Setup Tool, click use DHCP, select and the default gateway address.

Configuring the Printer for the Network

Windows 95/98 Configuration

Setting Up Peer-to-Peer Printing

The peer-to-peer printing software that is included in the CD-ROM labeled “Print Server Software and Documentation” allows Windows 95/98 PCs to com­municate directly with network attached printers. A network server, such as NetWare or Windows NT, is not required for peer-to-peer printing.
There are two types of peer-to-peer printing. You can select “IP Peer-to-Peer” or “IPX Peer-to-Peer” according to your network environment.
The peer-to-peer printing software must be installed on each PC that uses peer­to-peer printing. Once peer-to-peer printing software is installed, all Network Interface Boards on the network automatically appear in the list of available printer ports.
The peer-to-peer printing software can also be used in networks where servers are present; however, the server print services are often utilized instead. Server based print services offer centralized printing management and spooling and do not require software (other than the printer driver) to be installed on each PC.
If you use the printer in a network where servers are present, select either peer­to-peer printing or the server based print service.
Reference
For information on setting IP parameters, see P.20 “Setting Up the IP Parame­ters”.
Installing IP Peer-to-Peer
The TCP/IP protocol is required for IP Peer-to-Peer printing. Confirm that the TCP/IP protocol is installed, if not, install it before starting the following proce­dure.
Follow these steps to install IP Peer-to-Peer.

Windows NT 4.0 Configuration

Windows NT 4.0 Configuration

Windows NT 4.0 Configuration
There are several options for setting up printing in a Windows NT environment.
• If a NetWare server is present, NetWare print services might be used by fol­lowing the NetWare Configuration instructions in this guide.
• Peer-to-peer print services can be used by following the instructions in this section.
• LPR print services can be used via TCP/IP by following the instructions in this section.
Windows NT printing is very flexible. It is possible to configure the individual Windows NT or Windows 95/98 workstations to print using a different protocol than the Windows NT server. For example, a Windows NT server could be con­figured to print to a Network Interface Board via TCP/IP using the instructions in this section. The Network Interface Board could then be designated as shared on the NT server, allowing workstations to print via the NT server using a dif­ferent protocol (such as NetBEUI).
The optimum Windows NT printing configuration depends upon the particular environment and user as well as administrator experience and preferences. Gen­erally, the LPR printing over TCP/IP covered in the following instructions is the best choice for environments where TCP/IP is already in use.
3
If you do peer-to-peer printing in the Windows NT environments, it is strongly recommended that you use TCP/IP Peer-to-Peer Software.

Setting Up Peer-to-Peer Printing

The peer-to-peer printing software that is included with the Network Interface Board allows Windows NT 4.0 PCs to communicate directly with network at­tached printers. A network server, such as NetWare or Windows NT, is not re­quired for peer-to-peer printing.
The peer-to-peer printing software must be installed on each PC that might use peer-to-peer printing. Once peer-to-peer printing software is installed, all Net­work Interface Boards on the network automatically appear in the list of avail­able printer ports.
The peer-to-peer printing software can also be used in networks where servers are present; however, often the server print services are utilized instead. Server based print services offer centralized printing management and spooling and do not require software (other than the printer driver) to be installed on each PC.
Reference
For information on setting IP parameters, see P.20 “Configuring the Printer for the Network with the Operation Panel”.

UNIX Configuration

UNIX Configuration
UNIX printing utilizes a line printer daemon (lpd) to direct jobs to the printer. With printer-based lpd, the Network Interface Board acts as the line printer dae­mon host and accepts print jobs directly.
TCP/IP configuration of the Network Interface Board is needed for all versions of UNIX. See “Owner's Manual” (NIB 450-E Manual) in the CD-ROM labeled “Print Server Software and Documentation” for lpd configuration.
Note
Be sure to turn the printer off and on after changing the network configura­tion.

4. Installing the PCL 6/5e Printer Driver

Installing the PCL 6/5e Printer Driver

Printing requires installation of a printer driver for your operating system. This section describes instructions for installing the printer driver. The actual
procedure differs somewhat depending on your operating system. This printer comes with two kinds of PCL printer drivers. One is PCL 6, and the
other is PCL 5e. Generally, we recommend PCL 6 as your first choice, for it provides better
WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) and higher speed than PCL 5e. However, some of your application software might require the installation of the
PCL 5e printer driver. In this case, you can install the PCL 5e printer driver in addition to the PCL 6 printer driver.
Follow the appropriate one of the following procedures.
Important
Before starting this installation, close all documents and applications. In a net­work environment, confirm that users who are logged on are disconnected. Be sure to do this when it will create the least interference with other users.
After installing a printer driver, you must restart the computer.
Never have two versions of the same printer driver installed on your system at the same time. When upgrading to a new version of the printer driver, un­install the old version, and then install the new one.
