also included.
PCL is not available on Mac OS computers.
• Support for Windows (SMB) printing
Windows printing, also known as SMB (Server Message Block) printing, allows you to
print on TCP/IP networks using built-in Microsoft networking support and without additional network software. Printing using SMB allows you to print from your computer
to a particular connection (Hold, Print, or Direct) on the DocuColor 4 LP/CP.
xiii
Before You Begin
Before using the DocuColor 4 LP/CP, follow these general steps:
Confirm that the system administrator has completed printer/copier Setup as described in the this manual.
Find out what printer/copier defaults the administrator specified in Setup.
These default settings can affect the results of your print jobs. Check with your
administrator or operator for information on these default settings.
Confirm that the user software is installed correctly on your workstation, as described in the User Guide.
Find out what your access privileges are.
Your system or site administrator may or may not have set a password on the
printer/copier. If a password has been set, it will be required to perform job management with WebSpooler or printer/copier setup with WebSetup.
Levels of access and control
The DocuColor 4 LP/CP can be password protected, providing a level of control for printer/copier administrators. The password determines whether a
user can modify Setup options, and whether a user has control over print
jobs in the WebSpooler queues, or copiy jobs from the scanner.
By default there is no printer password. Once an Administrator password has
been set, users are required to enter it to access Setup menus or to access the
WebSetup screens.
The copier has a factory preset password for the System Administrator of
9999. For security reasons, the System Sdministrator should change this
password as soon as possible. This Administrator password restricts access
to copier configuraiton ssettings. For more information see section 5 of this
guide.
xiv
Print connections
If your DocuColor 4LP has a hard disk drive, you can print to the Print Hold
queues as well as the Direct connection. If your DocuColor 4LP does not
have a hard disk drive, only the Direct connection is available for printing.
All docuColor 4 CP products include a hard drive.
Direct connection
Jobs sent to the DocuColor 4 LP/CP Direct connection remain at the sending
workstation until the DocuColor 4 LP/CP is ready to print. They are transmitted to the printer and processed as soon as any prior job is finished printing.
Jobs sent to the Direct connection appear in the display of current jobs in
WebSpooler, but they cannot be selected for reprinting, moving, or deletion,
providing a measure of security for sensitive files. If you plan to download
fonts to the DocuColor 4 LP/CP via the network, you must download them to
the Direct connection.
You cannot use the Direct connection for lpr printing over TCP/IP. You can,
however, use this connection for downloading fonts.
Queues
Print queues (Print queue and Hold queue) are available on the printer/copier.
A queue is a storage area on the printer’s hard disk that is reserved for print
jobs. Queues are particularly useful when many print jobs are being sent to
the printer. When a job is printed to the Print queue or the Hold queue, it is
stored on the DocuColor 4 LP/CP hard disk rather than the user’s hard disk,
quickly freeing up the user’s workstation.
• Print queue - Files sent to the Print queue are spooled to the printer’s
hard disk drive. The DocuColor 4 LP/CP prints jobs from the Print queue
in the order in which they were received.
• Hold queue - Files sent to the Hold queue remain on the printer’s hard
disk drive until they are printed or deleted using WebSpooler. (For more
information see the User Guide.)
• Printed queue - The Printed queue is a job storage area on the DocuColor
4 LP/CP disk; it contains the most recent jobs printed from the Print queue.
The Printed queue makes it convenient to reprint those jobs. A Setup option enables this queue and determines the maximum number of jobs retained in it at any given time. Reprinting jobs in this queue requires
WebSpooler and an Administrator password, if one has been set.
xv
Password
You can implement a password on the printer/copier as a means of controlling access to DocuColor 4 LP/CP functions. The Change Password option,
which enables you to set or change the Administrator password, can be set in
the System Setup menus, or it can be set in WebSetup screens. Once set,
users must enter the password in order to access the printer’s Setup menus,
to access WebSetup screens, and to use Administrator controls of
WebSpooler.
Also, copier password limits access to the machine. See Section 5 for more
detailed information.
Fiery WebTools
Fiery WebTools, software that allows you to remotely manage your printer/
copier and print jobs via the Internet or your company’s intranet, come preinstalled on the DocuColor 4 LP/CP. Fiery WebTools are supported on Mac
OS, Windows 95/98, and Windows NT 4.0 computers. To enable use of Fiery
WebTools, you must do the following in Setup:
• Set Enable TCP/IP to Yes.
• Set an IP address for the DocuColor 4 LP/CP.
• Enter a TCP/IP gateway address and subnet mask, if they are used.
The WebDownloader is not available on Mac OS computers.
Control level scenarios
Printer/Copier access and control features are described below. Choose the
scenario that best matches your site requirements.
It is recommended that you set an Administrator password to prevent unauthorized changes to system settings.
No designated administrator
All users have access to all printer functions. On the copier, the
Administrator password is always enabled.
A designated administrator
Only an administrator has access to all system functions, including
configuration Setup, clearing the job log and printed queues, formatting
the printer’s hard disk, performing color calibration, and managing all
jobs from remote workstations via WebSpooler.

1.1 The printer/copier on the network
The built-in 10BaseT/100BaseT Ethernet interface on the DocuColor 4 LP/
CP supports the following network protocols:
• AppleTalk
• TCP/IP (the lpr, 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 http protocol is commonly used
for Web pages on the Internet and on intranets.
• 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 the Windows and Mac OS, and can run
concurrently on the same Ethernet cable. Workstations that use other protocols can print through a server that uses one of the protocols mentioned, or
they can print to the DocuColor 4 LP/CP parallel port.
When you add a DocuColor 4 LP/CP to a network, it is assumed that a network administrator will have already installed a network cabling system and
connected workstations and servers.
• Token Ring
Xerox Corporation provides as an option the Token Ring Card. Token Ring
can operate at 4 or 16 Mbps.

1.3 Quick path to installation
The diagrams in the following pages show typical systems that can be used
for printing and for using Fiery WebTools. To use the diagrams, find the
page with your preferred platform and network type. Then look up the setup
procedures in the pages and books referred to in the keys.
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 the network uses more than one protocol or more than one type of workstation, combine the setups listed for each component of your system. Note
that multiple protocols (shown in the diagrams as parallel lines) can run on
the same cable. A solid connection from the DocuColor 4 LP/CP with an
arrow indicates that other supported network types can be operational at the
same time.

1.5 Ethernet cable connection
The DocuColor 4 LP/CP supports Ethernet cabling of three types:
1
• Thinnet (thin coaxial Ethernet cable or 10Base2)
Uses an external transceiver to attach to the AUI (attachment unit interface) connector on the Ethernet interface of the DocuColor 4 CP.
• Thicknet (thick coaxial Ethernet cable or 10Base5)
Connects directly to the AUI connector on the Ethernet interface of the
DocuColor 4 LP/CP.
• Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP), defined as Category 5 for use with
100BaseT or defined as Category 3 or Category 5 for use with 10BaseT
Uses an 8-pin RJ-45 connector that plugs into the RJ-45 socket on the
DocuColor 4 LP/CP.
Unshielded Twisted Pair is also used for Token Ring.
The 100BaseT type supported by the DocuColor 4 LP/CP is 100BaseTX, also
known as Fast Ethernet. If an Ethernet hub is used, it must be a 100BaseTX
hub. The term “100BaseT” is used in this manual to refer to 100BaseTX.

2.5 Specifying network protocol
options
2.5.1 Network Protocol Setup
Network Protocol Setup options are used to specify and setup TCP/IP
Ethernet, AppleTalk, and IPX (Novell) network protocols.
NETWORK PROTOCOL
SETUP
Press Item/Enter to proceed.
TCP/IP Ethernet (DocuColor 4 CP only function)
Enable Auto IP - Yes/No - AUTOIP is the module that handles automatic
TCP/IP configuration for the system
Enable DHCP - Yes/No
Enable BootP - Yes/No
Enable Rarp - Yes/No
32
AUTOIP
AUTOIP is the module that handles automatic TCP/IP configuration for the
system. It uses a set of standard discovery protocol - RARP, BOOTP and
DHCP.
RARP
RARP, reverse address resolution protocol, is specified in RFC 903. It is an
ancient protocol for a client to query for its IP address. The RARP server
maintains a database of eazch client's IP address and its hardware address.
When the client boots up, it sends the RARP server its hardware address, and
the server returns the clients IP address in the reply.
RARP protocol only works for clients on the same segment as the RARP
server. (Very few machines use this protocol)
BOOTP
Given the little information RARP provides, a new protocol, BOOTP, specified in RFC 1542, was designed to allow clients to query for more information. In addition to the IP address ,a client may request additional information through the use of BOOTP options (RFC 2132). The administrator sets
up a database on the BOOTP server so that the server can return the requested
information along with the IP address of the client.
Option may be unanaswered if the server doesn't have the information in its
database. With the help of BOOTP relay agents, BOOTP can work across
segments. The client just talks to the agent on its segment and the agent will
be the relay to the actual BOOTP server.
2.5 Specifying network protocol options
DHCP
DHCP, or dynamic host configuration protocol (specified in RFC 2131), is
an extension to BOOTP that allows dynamic allocation of IP addresses .
Unlike BOOTP or RARP where cleints get the IP address once and for all,
DHCP assigns "leases" to the assigned IP addresses. The client is required to
renew its lease with the server in order to keep its address. If a lease expires,
the DHCP server reclaims the address and is free to assign it to another client. Other than this, DHCP works that same way as BOOTP. They share the
same packet structure and options. DHCP can also work across segments by
using DHCP relay agent, whic is really just a BOOTP relay agent. DHCP is
widely used by Windows machines.

Setting up
Network
Servers
This chapter describes environments that typically include one or more network servers-Novell NetWare servers and Windows NT 4.0 servers that will
share printing to the DocuColor 4 LP/CP. It describes setting up servers that
use IPX/SPX or TCP/IP protocols for communicating with the DocuColor 4
LP/CP. In addition, it includes some guidelines for setting up direct communication from Windows NT 4.0 workstations, where a network server is optional. The chapter also outlines the requirements for network clients to print
to the DocuColor 4 LP/CP and to run the Fiery WebTools. If your network is
based on Windows NT 4.0, skip to page 89.
Setting up a NetWare environment correctly requires the cooperation of the
Novell network administrator. You must have administrator privileges on
the network to create new NDS or bindery objects.
4
4.1 Setting up the DocuColor 4 LP/CP
on an IPX network
The software built into the DocuColor 4 LP/CP supports the following network operating environments:
• NetWare 4.x Novell Directory Services (NDS)
• NetWare 3.x Bindery services
• Servers running NetWare 4.x in bindery emulation mode
The term “bindery server” is used to refer to a Novell file server running
NetWare 3.x, or running NetWare 4.x in emulation mode. The term “NDS” is
used to describe components of a NetWare operating system running
NetWare 4.x in native mode.
NetWare clients print to the DocuColor 4 LP/CP through the Novell network
server. Server setup and client network setup are outlined here. Client printing setup and printing is described in the User Guide.
The DocuColor 4 LP/CP can accept jobs concurrently from NetWare, Windows NT 4.0, and AppleShare servers, as well as jobs sent directly from Windows or Windows NT. NetWare clients on Mac OS or Windows NT 4.0 computers can print via the NetWare server. The DocuColor 4 CP also accepts
concurrent copy jobs.
The DocuColor 4 LP/CP can receive print jobs from NetWare clients over
the Ethernet network topologies. During DocuColor 4 LP/CP setup, you select the frame type that will be used for communication between the
DocuColor 4 LP/CP and network servers. Frame type refers to the format of a
communications packet; frame types are specified in a startup file when the
NetWare server (or any other workstation) loads its network drivers.
66
4.2 Tips for experts IPX networks
The following information is all that experienced network administrators
need.
A DocuColor 4 LP/CP with IPX connections has these characteristics:
• Both NetWare 3.x and NetWare 4.x are supported directly. NetWare 4.x is
also supported through bindery emulation.
• A minimum connection to the DocuColor 4 LP/CP consists of a NetWare
file server, a NetWare print server, and a NetWare queue.
• A single directory tree (for NetWare 4.x) and up to eight bindery servers
can be configured simultaneously.
• The DocuColor 4 LP/CP looks for print jobs on one NetWare print server
per bindery server.
• Each print server can store jobs for any queue on the DocuColor 4 LP/CP.
4
4.2.1 Overview of IPX printing to the DocuColor 4 LP/CP
NetWare file servers support the creation of print queues, which are storage
areas for print jobs. When a client on a remote computer decides to print, the
job is directed to a print queue on the NetWare file server and spooled to the
NetWare server disk, freeing up the client workstation.
The queues on the NetWare server must be named to match the Direct connection and the Print, and Hold queues on the DocuColor 4 LP/CP. The
NetWare queue names should be given an extension corresponding to the
DocuColor 4 LP/CP queue, as follows:
xjdirect
xjhold
xjprint
The extension names must be in all lowercase and must be in English.
Print and Hold queues are available only on printers with an optional hard
disk drive.
67
4
4.2 Tips for experts-IPX networks
There is no need to rerun Setup when adding or removing a NetWare queue;
however you should initialize these settings by turning the printer/copier off
and on after a queue is created or removed.
When the DocuColor 4 LP/CP is configured to connect to a NetWare server,
it polls the NetWare server for jobs in each of its queues. If jobs are found,
they are transferred over the network to the matching connection: Print to
Print, Hold to Hold, Direct to Direct. While a job is processed and printed, a
record of the job is being created. You can access the Job Log containing
these records at any time.
68
4.3 Configuring a NetWare server for
printing
The following sections explain how to set up a NetWare file server so that
networked users can print to the DocuColor 4 LP/CP from their workstations, and the DocuColor 4 LP/CP can obtain print jobs from the NetWare
server.
For each NetWare file server that you configure, follow these general steps.
More detail is provided in subsequent sections.
• Make sure the server is connected to a functioning IPX network.
• Log in from a PC connected to the NetWare file server. With Novell 3.x,
log in as the Supervisor; or with NDS or Novell 4.x, log in as Admin.
• For NetWare 4.x installations, set up an NDS connection (see page 71).
• For NetWare 4.x in emulation mode, set the bindery context (see page
75).
• For NetWare 3.x and for NetWare 4.x in bindery emulation, set up a file
server, a print server, and a print queue for the DocuColor 4 LP/CP (see
page 82).
4
With bindery services, you can route all DocuColor 4 LP/CP print jobs
through the same NetWare file server, or you can configure more than one
file server to handle DocuColor 4 LP/CP jobs.
The functions you perform on the Novell server, on the DocuColor 4 LP/CP,
and on the client workstation, are summarized in the following tables. The
first table applies to NDS connections, the second to bindery connections.
Complete the operations in the left column, then the center column, then the
right column.

4.3 Configuring a NetWare server for printing
4.3.2 Setting up an NDS connection
In NDS, all NetWare entities (objects) are organized in a hierarchical tree
structure. Objects have a name, properties, and a context which defines the
location of the object in the directory tree. For the DocuColor 4 LP/CP you
are mainly concerned with defining a printer, a print server object and one or
more print queue objects. Objects are created in NetWare administrator programs (PCONSOLE or NETADMIN which are text-based, or NetWare Administrator, which has a graphical user interface and context-sensitive help).
The top-level tree object is known as the [Root] object. The name of the
[Root] object is also the name of the tree. Below the [Root] are other objects:
either containers (which consist of other objects) or leaf objects (which do
not contain other objects). Access to objects is controlled by rights that are
defined as properties of each object. Rights are established by network administrators.
4
The procedures that follow work with all versions of NetWare 4.x. With NetWare
4.11 or later, you can combine the procedures using the Print Services Quick
Setup dialog box.
The following procedures describe creating container objects in a Novell
structure using the NetWare Administrator utility on Windows 95 or Windows NT. This utility, NWADMIN95.exe, is generally located on the
\PUBLIC\WIN95\ directory of the SYS volume. To define new objects, launch
the utility and log in to the Novell directory tree as the Administrator.
The next three sections describe the procedures for defining a print queue
(or queues), printer, and print server object.
