11-1 Fiery X3e on the network Chapter 1: Connecting to the Network This chapter summarizes the stages in setting up the Fiery X3e, and includes diagrams that refer you to other chapters or other manuals for completing your installation. Check those references to find the information you need quickly. Fiery X3e on the network When the Fiery X3e is connected to a network, it behaves as a networked PostScript printer. The built-in Ethernet interface on the Fiery X3e supports the following network protocols: • AppleTalk • TCP/IP (the lpd, 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 port 9100 is the printer server port number to publish print connections between the print server and a remote computer. The http protocol is commonly used for Web pages on the Internet and on intranets. The http protocol also supports IPP printing. • 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 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. When you add the Fiery X3e to a network, it is assumed that a network administrator has already installed a network cabling system and connected workstations and servers.

Fiery X3e on the network

Fiery X3e on the network
When the Fiery X3e is connected to a network, it behaves as a networked PostScript
printer. The built-in Ethernet interface on the Fiery X3e supports the following
network protocols:
• AppleTalk
TCP/IP (the lpd, 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 port 9100 is the printer server port number to
publish print connections between the print server and a remote computer. The http
protocol is commonly used for Web pages on the Internet and on intranets. The http
protocol also supports IPP printing.
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 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.
When you add the Fiery X3e to a network, it is assumed that a network administrator
has already installed a network cabling system and connected workstations and servers.
