1-2 Connecting to the Network
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. The ColorPASS is
auto-sensing, and can handle all of these connections simultaneously.
When you add the ColorPASS to a network, it is assumed that a network
administrator has already installed a network cabling system and connected
workstations and servers.

Stages of installation on the network

Installation can be performed by a network or printing administrator. The stages of a
successful installation are:
• Physically connecting the ColorPASS to a functioning network
Prepare a network node for the ColorPASS—obtain cable, route it to the location
where the ColorPASS will be installed (near the copier), and attach the cable to the
network interface of the ColorPASS. For details, see
on page 3-10.
If you plan to run Command WorkStation software, you will need to install the
N :
OTE
software and connect the Command WorkStation computer to the network along with
the ColorPASS. For more information, see the
• Configuring the network server
When network servers are required, you need to configure those servers to provide
client access to the ColorPASS as a color PostScript printer. For information on
configuring network servers in Windows and UNIX network environments, see
Chapter 2.
