Introduction

This manual is intended for anyone who is responsible for integrating the
TOSHIBA GA-1120 into a business environment that includes networked personal
computers. After setting up the TOSHIBA GA-1120 and client workstations,
individual users can print to the TOSHIBA GA-1120 as a high-performance color
printer.

This manual describes how to set up network servers and clients to use the
TOSHIBA GA-1120 and how to install user software and set up printing from
Windows and Mac OS computers. For general information on using the color copier,
your computer, your application software, or your network, see the manuals that
accompany those products.

Chapter 1:
Connecting to
the Network

This chapter summarizes the stages in setting up the GA-1120, and includes diagrams
that refer you to other chapters or other manuals for completing your installation.
Check those references to find the information you need quickly.

GA-1120 on the network

When the GA-1120 is connected to a network, it behaves as a networked PostScript
printer. The built-in Ethernet interface on the GA-1120 supports the following
network protocols:

•AppleTalk

• TCP/IP (the lpd, nbt, and http protocols)

TCP/IP stands for Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol. The lpd
protocol is the standard TCP/IP printing protocol. The nbt protocol supports
Windows (SMB) printing. The port 9100 is the printer server port number to
publish print connections between the print server and a remote computer. The http
protocol is commonly used for Web pages on the Internet and on intranets. The http
protocol also supports IPP printing.

• IPX/SPX (Novell)

IPX/SPX stands for Internetwork Packet Exchange/Sequenced Packet Exchange.

These protocols (rules that enable computers on a network to communicate with each
other) are supported on Mac OS, Windows, and UNIX platforms and can run
concurrently on the same cable. Workstations that use other protocols can print
through a server that uses one of the protocols mentioned.

When you add the GA-1120 to a network, it is assumed that a network administrator
has already installed a network cabling system and connected workstations and servers.

•Physically connecting the GA-1120 to a functioning network

• Configuring the network server

Stages of installation on the network

Installation can be performed by a network or printing administrator. The stages of a
successful installation are:

Prepare a network node for the GA-1120—obtain cable, route it to the location where
the GA-1120 will be installed, and attach the cable to the network interface (for
details, see page 3-9).

NOTE: If you plan to run Command WorkStation software, you will need to install the

software and connect the Command WorkStation computer to the network along with
the GA-1120. For more information, see the User Software Installation Guide.

When network servers are required, you need to configure those servers to provide
client access to the GA-1120 as a color PostScript printer. For information on
configuring network servers in Windows and UNIX network environments, see

Chapter 2.

• Setting up the GA-1120

Configure the GA-1120 for your particular printing and network environment.
First read Chapter 2, and then see subsequent chapters for details.

•Preparing client workstations for printing

Install the files needed for printing, install additional user software, and connect the
client to the GA-1120 over the network. These steps are described in the User Software

Installation Guide, and some information is also provided in Chapter 2.

•Administering the GA-1120

Monitor and maintain system performance and troubleshoot problems that arise.
For details, see Chapter 7 of this manual and the Job Management Guide.

Command WorkStation software, connect it to the
network.

Configure UNIX, Windows NT 4.0/2000, and IPX
(Novell) servers to specify GA-1120 print queues
and GA-1120 users.

No special configuration of AppleShare servers is
required.

On the GA-1120 Control Panel, configure, at a
minimum, the Server Setup, Network Setup, and
Printer Setup. Configure the remaining Setups.

At each computer from which users print to
the GA-1120:

•Install the appropriate printer files and connect
to one or more queues.

•Install Fiery utilities and an Internet browser for
those computers that will use them.

•Verify the GA-1120 in the list of printers and run
a test print.

Quick path to installation

The diagrams on the following pages show typical systems you can use to print and run
Fiery software from remote workstations. Find the page with your preferred platform
and network type, and then look up the setup procedures referenced in the “Key to
setup” in the upper-left corner of each diagram.

The diagrams describe devices that use the supported networking protocols. They are
logical diagrams and are not intended to describe the physical arrangement (topology)
of devices on the network. A variety of physical arrangements is possible with each
logical arrangement. For example, twisted pair Ethernet networks commonly use a star
configuration around a hub, rather than a bus arrangement. The design of physical
networks is beyond the scope of this manual.

If your network uses more than one protocol or more than one type of workstation,
combine the setups listed for each component of your system. Multiple protocols
(shown in the diagrams as parallel lines) can run on the same cable. A solid connection
from the GA-1120 with an arrow indicates that other supported network types can be
operational at the same time.

The protocols used in these diagrams are indicated as follows:

Ethernet connection

For Ethernet connections, the GA-1120 supports Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP)
cabling, defined as Category 5 for use with 100BaseT; or as Category 3, Category 4, or
Category 5 for use with 10BaseT. The cable uses an 8-pin RJ-45 connector that plugs
into the RJ-45 socket on the GA-1120.

NOTE: The 100BaseT type supported by the GA-1120 is 100BaseTX, also known as

Fast Ethernet. If an Ethernet hub is used, it must be a 100BaseTX hub. The term
“100BaseT” is used to refer to 100BaseTX.

TO CONNECT TO THE ETHERNET BOARD

• Connect the network cable to the RJ-45 connector on the back of the GA-1120.

You must use a Category 5 unshielded twisted pair cable network cable for 100BaseT.

Chapter 2:
Setting up
Network Servers

This chapter describes environments that typically include one or more network
servers—Novell NetWare servers and Windows NT 4.0/2000 servers—that share
printing to the GA-1120. It describes setting up servers that use IPX/SPX or TCP/IP
protocols for communicating with the GA-1120. In addition, it includes guidelines for
setting up direct communication from Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP workstations or
UNIX workstations, where a network server is optional. This chapter also outlines the
requirements for users to print to the GA-1120 and run Fiery utilities and WebTools.

The GA-1120 can accept jobs concurrently from NetWare, Windows NT 4.0/2000,
and AppleShare servers, as well as jobs sent directly from Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP
or UNIX workstations. Because AppleShare servers require no special configuration,
they are not discussed in this chapter, except for use in a Windows NT 4.0/2000
environment (see “GA-1120 on a TCP/IP network with Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP”
in the following section).

If your network is based on Windows NT 4.0/2000, proceed to the following section.
For information on UNIX workstations, proceed to page 2-17.

GA-1120 on a TCP/IP network with
Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP

When a Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP computer is configured to connect to the
GA-1120 using TCP/IP, it can print directly to the GA-1120. If the computer shares
the printer over the network, it is acting as a print server to
Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP and Windows 9x/Me clients. Client computers print to
the GA-1120 by printing to the Windows NT 4.0/2000 print server. You can then
monitor and control printing at the Windows NT 4.0/2000 server computer.

Typical system combinations are:

•Print server running Windows NT 4.0/2000 Server; clients running
Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP Workstation and Windows 9x/Me

•Print server running Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP Workstation and clients running
Windows 9x/Me

• Make sure you have a valid IP address for the GA-1120 and any workstations that will

With TCP/IP protocols loaded, you can run Fiery utilities and WebTools from a
Windows computer.

The Windows NT 4.0/2000 server can also use AppleTalk protocols to print to the
GA-1120 as an alternative to TCP/IP.

NOTE: When you create a printer to share with AppleTalk users, do not “capture” the

printer. Capturing the printer forces all users to print to the server, rather than directly
to the printer. If you capture the printer, GA-1120 print connections will not appear in
the Mac OS Chooser.

Tips for experts—Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP with TCP/IP

Setting up printing from Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP using TCP/IP protocols is
similar to setting up UNIX workstations with TCP/IP. When TCP/IP network
connections are made from Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP workstations, note the
following:

print to it or run the Fiery utilities.

• In GA-1120 Setup, enable TCP/IP and enter the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway
address for the GA-1120.

You can enter these addresses manually or use DHCP, RARP, or BOOTP protocols to
assign them dynamically.

• Make sure the GA-1120 name and address are listed in a domain name server (DNS) or
hosts name database used by your system.

• Make sure the system host table includes the correct internal name for the GA-1120 as
a remote printer.

For more information, see page 2-18.

•For Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP, install the appropriate printer driver files on the
Windows NT 4.0/2000 server.

For more information, see the User Software Installation Guide.

• Repeat the installation for all users who print to the GA-1120.

Each server and workstation running the Fiery utilities with TCP/IP also needs the
TCP/IP protocol and the Fiery utility software.

Configuring a Windows NT 4.0/2000 server to communicate with
the GA-1120

To configure a Windows NT 4.0/2000 server to communicate with the GA-1120,
follow these general steps. More detail is provided in subsequent sections in this
chapter and in your Microsoft documentation.

• Load the TCP/IP network protocol on the server and configure it with an

IP address, subnet mask, and gateway.

•Enter the host name of the GA-1120 in the host database used by your system (see

page 2-4).

•Perform GA-1120 Setup.

•On the Windows NT 4.0/2000 server, create a printer for each GA-1120 print

connection, install the appropriate printer drivers, and (optionally) share the printer
on the network (see page 2-5).

•Enter the host name and remote printer name of the GA-1120 in the printer

connection. For more information, see page 2-18.

•If the Windows NT 4.0/2000 server is also a workstation, install Fiery utilities (see

the User Software Installation Guide).

Adding the GA-1120 to the TCP/IP network

If your TCP/IP network consists of Windows NT 4.0/2000 servers, and
Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP clients, follow the procedures in this section. If the
network also includes UNIX workstations, also see the procedures on page 2-18.

TO ADD THE GA-1120 TO A TCP/IP NETWORK WITH A WINDOWS NT 4.0/2000

SERVER

1. Register the IP address of the GA-1120 in the host name database used by your
system.

For installations that do not have a network administrator or central host name
database, add the GA-1120 to the hosts file on the Windows NT 4.0/2000 server. Also
add it to the hosts file on any workstations that have TCP/IP loaded and will use the
Fiery utilities.

The Windows NT 4.0/2000 hosts file provides compatibility with the UNIX hosts
file. The hosts file is used as a local Domain Name Services (DNS) equivalent. It has
the same format as the /etc/hosts file on UNIX servers. The format of the hosts entry
is:

IP Address<TAB>host name<TAB>#comments

where <TAB> indicates that you press the Tab key.

To determine the IP address and server name of your system, print a Configuration
page (see page page 7-10).

NOTE: If the GA-1120 has already been defined in an /etc/hosts file or equivalent host

name database on a UNIX workstation on your network, we recommend you use the
same host name here as you used for the name of the remote printer in the

/etc/printcap file.

2. Perform GA-1120 Setup to support TCP/IP printing.

Enter the options in Protocol Setup (IP address of the GA-1120, subnet mask, and
gateway address).

Installing the GA-1120 as a shared printer

The first step in creating a printer is installing the printer driver files, which give your
applications access to printer features. You can use the installation instructions in the

User Software Installation Guide for every workstation that will print directly and

independently to the GA-1120. However, if you are an administrator running a
Windows NT 4.0/2000 server, or Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP computer, you can also
create a printer and share it with clients on the network. This allows clients who do not
have permission to establish an independent network connection to the GA-1120 to
print through the server.

You can specify sharing of the printer during installation of the GA-1120 printer files.
If you have not yet installed the GA-1120 printer files on the Windows NT 4.0/2000
print server computer, do so now, following the instructions in the User Software

Installation Guide. During installation, enter the information necessary to share the

GA-1120.

If you have already installed the GA-1120 printer files on the computer you are using
as an NT 4.0/2000 print server, see your Windows documentation for information
about sharing the GA-1120.

If more than one GA-1120 print connection is published (for example, if both the
Print queue and the Hold queue are published), you may want to create a printer for
each print connection, so you and other users can print to each connection directly.
When prompted to specify the printer name, enter a name that indicates the GA-1120
print connection.

Configuring clients of a Windows NT 4.0/2000 server

Each client of a Windows NT 4.0/2000 server is already using a network protocol to
communicate with the server. Each client can print to the GA-1120 if it has been
shared by a Windows NT 4.0/2000 server, or Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP computer.
In that case, the client does not have to use the same network protocol to connect to
the Windows NT 4.0/2000 server as the server uses to communicate with the
GA-1120.

TO CONNECT AND PRINT TO THE GA-1120 SHARED BY A
WINDOWS NT 4.0 SERVER

•For Windows 9x/Me clients: Before printing, double-click the Windows NT 4.0/2000
server icon in the Network Neighborhood window, and then double-click the printer
name.

You are prompted to set up the printer. When you choose to set it up, the Add Printer
Wizard dialog box appears. Follow the procedures in the User Software Installation

Guide.

•For Windows NT 4.0 Workstation clients: Before printing, connect to the print server
computer and select the GA-1120. Right-click and choose the Open command.

When prompted, click Yes to have Windows set up the printer.

•For Windows 2000/XP clients: Before printing, install the printer driver with the User
Software CD and configure the port.

After clients have selected the printer, they can choose it from the Print Setup, Page
Setup, or Print dialog box of their application. Clients can change printing options for
their own job, but printer properties appear dimmed, and unavailable for changing.
When a client chooses Print, the job is transmitted to the Windows NT 4.0/2000
print server, and from there to the selected print connection on the GA-1120. The job
is listed in the Print Manager on the client workstation, and the administrator can
track it in the GA-1120 window in the Print Manager on the Windows NT 4.0/2000
print server.

Configuring Windows computers without a Windows NT 4.0 server

If your network does not have a Windows NT 4.0/2000 server, Windows 9x/Me and
Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP workstations can still print to the GA-1120. This method
of printing is called Windows, or SMB printing. In this type of network environment,
computers running Windows 9x/Me and Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP Workstations
operate in a peer-to-peer environment and communicate directly with the GA-1120
when users send print jobs.

Many of the same prerequisites for setting up printing through a
Windows NT 4.0/2000 server also apply to setting up Windows printing where a
server is not present. The prerequisites are summarized in the following list, and you
can find more detail in your Microsoft documentation.

Use the information on this page to determine the current GA-1120 settings.

•Verify the Workgroup name of the computer in the Windows Network control panel.

Make sure the Workgroup name is the same as the one listed in GA-1120 Setup.

•For Windows 9x/Me, in the File and printer sharing for Microsoft Network Properties
dialog box, specify Automatic or Enabled for Browse Master, and select Yes for LM
Announce.

•For Windows 2000/XP, in the Client for Microsoft Networks Properties dialog box,
configure the computer to allow file sharing, and then restart the computer.

• Ping the GA-1120 to verify TCP/IP communication is successful (see page 2-19).
