98 · Microsoft Windows Me · Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 · Microsoft Windows 2000 When the network interface card is installed, the print controller will run in the following environments. Client operating systems Network interface type Network protocol Windows 95/98/Me/NT 4.0/2000 Ethernet 10/100Base-T TCP/IP, IPX/SPX 1 2 Connecting to a Computer 2 Connecting to a Computer Connect the print controller to the computer using either of the following two methods. To connect to the parallel port Using a parallel cable, locally connect the printer directly to a computer. Refer to "2.1 Connecting to the Parallel Port (Local Connection)" on page 3. To connect to the Ethernet 10/100Base-T port If the printer is to be used on a network, connect it using a 10/100BaseT cable. Refer to "2.2 Connecting to the Ethernet 10/100Base-T Port (Network Connection)" on page 4. Important! · If the printer is to be used on a network, the optional network interface card KN-305 must be installed. 2 2 Connecting to a Computer 2.1 Connecting to the Parallel Port (Local Connection) Use the parallel cable to connect the parallel port of the print controller to the parallel port of the computer. Important! · Be sure to use a shielded parallel cable. Use of an unshielded cable may result in radio frequency interference. · The parallel port is compatible with IEEE1284 Type B standards. 1. 2. 3. Make sure that the Digital Copier and the computer to be connected to the Digital Copier are both turned OFF. Connect one end of the parallel cable to the parallel port (printer port) of the computer. Connect the other end of the cable to the parallel port of the print controller installed in the Digital Copier. This completes the connection of the print controller to the computer. 3 2 Connecting to a Computer 2.2 Connecting to the Ethernet 10/100Base-T Port (Network Connection) If the printer is to be used on a network, connect the network interface card to the network (LAN). Important! · This connection requires the optional network interface card KN-305. · Be sure to use a shielded cable for the Ethernet 10/100Base-T cable. Use of an unshielded cable may result in radio frequency interference. 1. 2. Make sure that the Digital Copier is turned OFF. Connect one end of the Ethernet 10/100Base-T cable to the 10/ 100Base-T port of the network interface card, and then connect the other end of the cable to the hub. This completes the network connection. 4 3 Installing the Printer Driver 3 Installing the Printer Driver This section explains the procedure for installing the printer driver in the CD-ROM that comes with the print controller.
