NETWORK SETUP

Configuring the EFI Splash RPX-iii for AppleTalk printing

NETWORK SETUP 8

This chapter describes environments that typically include one or more network configurations. It describes how to set up and configure your network for printing to the EFI Splash RPX-iii from Mac OS or Windows computers.

The EFI Splash RPX-iii supports AppleTalk, Bonjour/Rendezvous, AppleShare, Microsoft TCP/IP, Novell NetWare NDPS for TCP/IP or LPR or Port 9100 Printing, and legacy support for NetWare Print Queue setup through PConsole.

This section describes how to configure the EFI Splash RPX-iii to receive jobs from computers on an AppleTalk network.

TO CONFIGURE THE EFI SPLASH RPX-iii FOR APPLETALK PRINTING

1 Choose System Preferences from the Apple menu on the EFI Splash RPX-iii, and then choose

Network preferences.

2 For Mac OS 10.5, click Advanced and click AppleTalk.

NETWORK SETUP 9

Mac OS 10.4: Choose Built-in Ethernet from the Show menu and click the AppleTalk tab.

3 Select the Make AppleTalk Active option.

4 If more than one zone is displayed, select the appropriate AppleTalk Zone.

5 Click Apply Now (Mac OS 10.4) or OK (Mac OS 10.5).

6 Close Network preferences.

7 Start the EFI Splash RPX-iii application and log on with Administrator privileges.

8 In the EFI Splash RPX-iii application, choose Preferences from the Splash Server menu.

The Splash Server Preferences dialog box appears.

9 Click the Network icon and select the AppleTalk Registration option.

For more information, see page 30.

10 Click OK.

Configuring the EFI Splash RPX-iii for TCP/IP and LPR printing

This section describes how to configure the EFI Splash RPX-iii to receive print jobs from a TCP/IP or LPR network.

To configure the EFI Splash RPX-iii and users’ computers for TCP/IP printing, complete the following procedures:

• Connect the EFI Splash RPX-iii to the TCP/IP network.

• Configure the EFI Splash RPX-iii for the TCP/IP network.

• Enable TCP/IP printing.

• Configure users’ computers for TCP/IP printing.

NETWORK SETUP 10

Connecting the EFI Splash RPX-iii to the TCP/IP network

Connect the Local Area Network (LAN) card or Ethernet port to the network.

Configuring the EFI Splash RPX-iii for the TCP/IP network

The following procedure explains how to configure the EFI Splash RPX-iii for the TCP/IP network.

TO CONFIGURE THE EFI SPLASH RPX-iii FOR THE TCP/IP NETWORK

1 Obtain a router address from your network administrator.

2 Choose System Preferences from the Apple menu on the EFI Splash RPX-iii, and then choose

Network Preferences.

3 Mac OS 10.5: Click Advanced.

NETWORK SETUP 11

Mac OS 10.4: Choose the local area network (LAN) card type or Built-in Ethernet from the Show menu for the TCP/IP network.

4 To configure the TCP/IP address manually, choose Manually from the Configure menu.

Assigning the EFI Splash RPX-iii a static TCP/IP address allows users to locate the EFI Splash RPX-iii reliably on the network. To set up the DHCP server to use the same TCP/IP address, contact your network administrator.

Type the EFI Splash RPX-iii IP address.

NOTE: Type a Subnet mask number, if required.

NOTE: If the Subnet mask number is different than the default mask number, change it to

match the number used on your network. For more information, contact your network administrator.

Type the Router address (gateway address), if required.

A network router maintains a list of IP addresses for two or more groups of network devices. The router then uses the list of addresses to direct network data to the appropriate location on the network. To enter two or more router addresses, press Return after typing each address.

Type the Name server address for your local DNS server on your network (Mac OS 10.4 only, optional).

Type the search domain name that pertains to your DNS name; for example, design.corp.com (Mac OS 10.4 only, optional ).

Or to have a TCP/IP address automatically assigned from the network, choose Using DHCP.

5 If the Mac OS computer is on an IPv6 network, click Configure IPv6 and proceed to step 6.

If the Mac OS computer is not on an IPv6 network, proceed to step 7.

NETWORK SETUP 12

6 To configure IPv6 manually, type the IPv6 address and Router address (if required), and

then click OK.

To configure IPv6 automatically, choose Automatically from the Configure IPv6 menu and click OK.

7 Click Apply Now (Mac OS 10.4) or OK (Mac OS 10.5) to confirm the new setup.

8 Close the Network Control Panel.

Enabling TCP/IP printing from the EFI Splash RPX-iii

The following procedure explains how to enable TCP/IP printing from the EFI Splash RPX-iii.

Configuring Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003/Vista for TCP/IP printing

The EFI Splash RPX-iii accepts print jobs from the TCP/IP network on a Windows 2000/ XP/Server 2003/Vista or Novell NetWare NDPS LPR network. In addition, users on a TCP/IP network can print files directly to the EFI Splash RPX-iii by using Drop folders or Hot Folders.

NOTE: To print over the TCP/IP network, your computer must have Splash software

appropriate for your operating system installed, and must be connected to the EFI Splash RPX-iii.

Windows computers are preconfigured with the Microsoft TCP/IP software installed. For information about configuring Windows for TCP/IP printing to the EFI Splash RPX-iii, see the Printing Guide.
