When these worksheets are completed they will contain a record of the state of the system at the time
of install. Most likely, this setup and configuration state will change, so encourage your customer to
keep these worksheets with the service record of the printer for future reference.
Your customer should not complete the worksheets if they are not sure of the required information.
Always encourage them to contact the next level of technical support within their organization for
assistance.
Note
Worksheet W-5, the Novell NetWare gateway installation worksheet, refers to on-site setup
requirements that your customer's network administrator should already have implemented prior to
the FreeFlow Print Server install. The values for the data elements entered during that setup activity
should be recorded on this worksheet.

DHCP: Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. This is a TCP/IP addressing method. If selected, the
system should automatically contact the DHCP server to obtain the IP address, subnet mask, and
default gateway address. This information can also be manually entered into the FreeFlow Print Server
Network Configuration screens.
DHCP is the default for DocuColor 2XX. iGen3 and iGen4 may not use DHCP.
Hostname: This is the name the print server will be known as by users from other host machines on the
TCP/IP network. This name is an alias mapped to the IP address that is assigned to the print
server/host machine. The Hostname must start with an alphabetic character, and cannot start with a
number, space, or any other non-alphabetic character.

FreeFlow Print Server

Installation Worksheets
IP Address: The lP or Internet Address is a unique 4 byte, 32 bit numeric value that is assigned to each
local host and workstation on a TCP/IP network. An IP address consists of four fields, each separated by
a decimal point. For example: 13.254.166.111.
Note
The TCP/IP Internet spans the entire world. The Internet central committee assigns a set of unique
network addresses to your customer's company. The customer network administrator assigns IP
address numbers within this set to each host and workstation on the network.
Subnets: A YES answer to this query indicates that your customer's network is divided into segments or
"subnets." In this instance the following data element, subnet mask, must also be provided.
Subnet Mask: The subnet mask is a decimal or hexadecimal group of four fields, each separated by a
decimal point that indicates how much of the IP Address is used with the Network number to create
subnets. The following is an example of a subnet mask in its decimal and hexadecimal form.
255.255.0.0 = 0xff.0xff.0x0.0x0
The subnet mask is derived by the network administrator according to how many subnets are needed.
The subnet mask is the same for all hosts that exist on a given network. Your customer's network
administrator can provide this information.
Ipv6: Ipv6: Internet protocol version 6. FreeFlow Print Server is now using this version of the Internet
protocol. IPv6 are addresses 128 bits long versus 32 bits in IPv4. The preferred IPv6 address
representation is: xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx where each x is a hexadecimal digit
representing 4 bits. IPv6 addresses range from 0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000 to
ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff. IPv6 addresses may omit leading zeros. For example, IPv6 address
1050:0db8:1319:003a:0005:0600:300c:362b may be written as 1050:db8:1319:3a:5:600:300c:362b.
Default Router lP address: The default router IP address is a unique 4 byte, 32 bit numeric value, for
example, 13.252.12.198 that identifies the machine that is acting as the main router. The router
maintains tables of addresses of many networks in order to forward data packets between these
networks. During install, the service representative creates a default router file on the print server, if one
does not already exist, and this number is added to a line in the new file. Your customer's network
administrator should provide this number.
Note
If another machine is not identified as the default router, the print server will automatically take over
the main router function. This may noticeably slow down processing on the network.
Kerberos Security: Kerberos security is a network authentication protocol that is provided with the
Solaris environment. FreeFlow Print Server does not currently support this protocol.
Name Service: DNS, NIS, NIS+, and LDAP are network information services that hold user information.
None indicates that the user information is held locally. Additional information for each of these
services should be entered in the appropriate table in W-6. The network services are enabled and
configured using the FreeFlow Print Server Network Configuration screens.
Note
In order to load and enable Remote Services, DNS must be the Name Service type.

A new user will be created on the print server to accept print jobs from command line clients at either a
UNIX or PC workstation, or both. The first five data elements, User Name, User ID, User Password,
Client IP Address, and User Comment, are required for these clients.
User Name: A distinctive name that each user needs in order to gain access to the UNIX OS, which in
turn associates the name to the correct User ID in a UNIX host password file that grants access.
User ID: The client user identification number that will be used to uniquely identify the new user. This
is a decimal or binary number that represents a user login account. If the host machine is on an NIS
network (see W-1), then the uids are managed from a central master server.
Example:
/etc/passwd entry:
>bob:*:200:800:Bob Lin:/home/bob:/usr/bin

You can find the User ID by performing the following at the UNIX client workstation:
• Non-NIS network. On the command line enter the following:
cat /etc/passwd|grep [Client users name]
• NIS network. On the command line enter the following:
ypcat password|grep [Client users name]
User Password: The command line client should be prepared to provide this information during
installation.
In this worksheet the term "client" refers to the actual workstation that will be used to submit jobs to
the print server, and the term "user" refers to the individual submitting jobs from that workstation.
Client IP Address: The unique Internet address of the workstation that will be submitting jobs to the
print server.
User Comment: Any additional information that may provide a more unique identification of the new
user.
Client Hostname: The hostname of the workstation that will be used to submit jobs to the print server.

W-6: Network Configuration Worksheet
Fill out the appropriate worksheet for the network configuration the customer is using. This
information is used to configure the network through the FreeFlow Print Server Network Configuration
screens.
For further information on each network configuration, refer to the FreeFlow Print Server on-line help.
IP Configuration
Two options are available for configuring TCP/IP on the FreeFlow Print Server.
Static IP configuration requires that the System Administrator enter the hostname, IP address, default
router gateway, and subnet mask information into the Network configuration UI. This information is
available on Worksheet W-1.
DHCP, or Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, retrieves the values for the configuration from the
DHCP server on the network. The System Administrator can rewrite the hostname.
NIS/NIS+
The Network Information Service (NIS and NIS+) provides simple network lookup services. The purpose
of NIS and NIS+ is to provide information that needs to be known throughout the network to all
machines on the network.
If the Domain Name, Server IP Address, and Server Name are not known, select Find One in the dialog.
The appropriate information is obtained from the NIS/NIS+ server on the network. The server must be
configured to accept broadcast requests.

W-7: Novell NetWare Gateway Installation Worksheet
Fill out this worksheet only if the customer has purchased the Novell Connectivity - QServer gateway.
The Novell NetWare software is the gateway that allows clients to communicate through a Novell
Server (PC) to the FreeFlow Print Server. Your customer's network administrator or the Xerox Systems
Analyst at each Novell server who will be submitting documents to the print server gathers the
information in this worksheet. At install, the service representative uses this information to set up and
configure the QServer gateway software on the print server. The QServer software is included in the
FreeFlow Print Server installation.

W-7 Data Element Definitions
This section defines the data elements determined by the network administrator or the Xerox Systems
Analyst during the setup of the NetWare Gateway on each Novell Server who will be transferring
documents from Novell clients to the print server.
To support a smoother, faster install process, make sure these data elements are known and entered in
this worksheet before the scheduled day of installation.
Novell Internet Net Number: This is the internal network number, assigned to the print server that
identifies the FreeFlow Print Server on the Novell network. This data element must be a new, eightdigit hexadecimal number that is a unique number on the Novell network, and is available from the
network administrator.
Note
If necessary, pad the number with zeros from the left to achieve the eight digits.

Novell Net Number: This is an eight-digit, hexadecimal, network number that identifies the Novell
network. The external network number can be any number defined that falls within the range of 1 to
FFFFFFFFE.
Note
This number must be the same on both the Novell server and the print server.
You can find the Novell network number by entering the CONFIG command at the Novell File Server
system console prompt, as in the following Frame type ETHERNET_802.3 example. The network
number is in bold on the last line of this example, as the LAN protocol IPX network number. This
number may also be referred to as the Ethernet Net Number.
File server name: Cust 2
IPX internal network number: 0123A.B09

At this point, make a note of the name of the file server since it will be needed later. This information
will appear after the entry File server name. The comparable ETHERNET_Il entry would look like the
following example where the name of the file server is Cust_2 and the network number is in bold on
the last line as the LAN protocol IPX network number. Remember, this is an example, and your setup
will most likely be different.

operate the Novell print server. The print server uses this operator account to manage operations with
the Novell Server. Enter the full <User Name> for this user as the data element.
Print Server Operator User Password: The print server operator should be prepared to provide this
information at the time of the gateway setup.
Novell Printer Name: One printer, of a type Remote Other/Unknown, will be created at this time to
represent the Xerox printer. Enter the name for the printer in this column, for example, DT6135, to
represent a DocuTech 6135 printer.

W-8: AppleTalk Gateway Installation Worksheet
If the customer has purchased the AppleTalk Connectivity - Apple PAP gateway, fill out this worksheet.
Item # Data Element Customer Value
1 AppleTalk Phase Type
2 AppleTalk Zone Name
W-8 Data Element Definitions
AppleTalk Phase Type: There are three AppleTalk Phase Types:
• Phase 1 (non-extended network) is a single physical network that can support up to 254 mode
addresses (devices). There is only one network number and one zone assigned to the network.
Phase 1 is not configured as Phase 1, but should follow the Transition mode install procedure. This is
done so that Macintosh Transparent Printing can be enabled.
• Phase 2 (extended network) is a network in which there are two or more network numbers
assigned to a single physical network. Each network number on an extended network is an
addressing channel that can support 253 devices and only one zone name. Phase 2 routers can be
configured to support non-extended networks.
• Transition mode (Phase 2 Transition) is a way of configuring a Phase 2 router so that it can
function on an Internet that includes Phase 1 routers. Since Phase 1 routers cannot recognize
multiple network numbers or multiple zones on a network, a Phase 2 router in the transition mode
is deliberately limited to addressing only 253 devices.
You can determine which EtherTalk phase type is running by completing the following steps:
1. Select the Control panel from the Apple Menu Icon (upper left corner of the screen on a
Macintosh).
2. Double-click the Network icon.
3. The icon describes the phase type:
a. An icon showing two single opposing arrows represents EtherTalk 1.0 (Phase 1).
b. An icon showing two double opposing arrows represents EtherTalk 2.0 (Phase 2).
If the EtherTalk 2.0 icon appears, double-click the icon and see if an Internet router is found. If one is
found, a panel appears telling the user they belong to "SOMEZONE", which is the network default zone
and the first one in the list, if a zone list exists. Be careful not to make assumptions and be sure to
obtain detailed network specific information from the site network administrator. The network
administrator may try the AppleShare icon first to see the network for which the Macintosh is currently
configured. Remember, the network can be toggled between whatever network icons appear in the
Control Panel and, since LocalTalk is built-in, LocalTalk may be selected as well.

AppleTalk NLM Zone Name: For a Novell Server running AppleTalk, this represents the name of the
zone in which the Network Server will reside. The zone name is also assigned in the Load AppleTalk
statement. This refers to the parameter "Apple-big-zone".
Note
If the network will be running both Novell NetWare and AppleTalk, the frame type must be Ethernet_II.
