22-17 Fiery X3e on a network with UNIX workstations The following information applies especially to the Fiery X3e: • The Fiery X3e is a printer controller that understands lpd protocols. • The Fiery X3e has a remote printer name you must use in order to communicate with it successfully. For details, see the following section. Important note about the remote printer name Whichever UNIX system you use, the name used for the remote printer (or rp in the /etc/printcap file) in configuring the Fiery X3e must be one of the following: print hold The remote printer name is also used when setting up your Windows NT 4.0/2000 Server or Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP Workstation to connect to the Fiery X3e over TCP/IP. Enter the remote printer name when you set up your Windows NT 4.0/2000 printer, as the "Name of printer or print queue on that (lpd host) server" in the Add LPR Compatible Printer dialog box. For the Windows 2000/XP printer driver, enter the remote printer name for Queue Name under LPR Settings in the Configure Standard TCP/IP Port Monitor dialog box. Setting up the Fiery X3e on TCP/IP networks Every machine (host) on a TCP/IP network, including the Fiery X3e, must have a unique 32-bit internet address (IP address). Contact your network administrator to obtain an address for the Fiery X3e. Workstations on a TCP/IP network can print directly to the Fiery X3e as a remote printer, or can print to a Windows NT 4.0/2000 server or UNIX workstation acting as a print server. Since the Fiery X3e spools jobs and acts as a print server, there is no advantage in placing another print server between a workstation and the Fiery X3e. If you choose to do so, however, there is no difference in setup except that a client machine does not have its own spooling area.

Fiery X3e on a network with UNIX workstations
The following information applies especially to the Fiery X3e:
•
The Fiery X3e is a printer controller that understands lpd protocols.
•
The Fiery X3e has a remote printer name you must use in order to communicate with
it successfully.
For details, see the following section.
Important note about the remote printer name
Whichever UNIX system you use, the name used for the remote printer (or
rp
in the
/etc/printcap
file) in configuring the Fiery X3e must be one of the following
:
print
hold
The remote printer name is also used when setting up your Windows NT 4.0/2000
Server or Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP Workstation to connect to the Fiery X3e over
TCP/IP. Enter the remote printer name when you set up your Windows NT 4.0/2000
printer, as the “Name of printer or print queue on that (lpd host) server” in the Add
LPR Compatible Printer dialog box.
For the Windows 2000/XP printer driver, enter the remote printer name for Queue
Name under LPR Settings in the Configure Standard TCP/IP Port Monitor dialog
box.
Setting up the Fiery X3e on TCP/IP networks
Every machine (host) on a TCP/IP network, including the Fiery X3e, must have a
unique 32-bit internet address (IP address). Contact your network administrator to
obtain an address for the Fiery X3e. Workstations on a TCP/IP network can print
directly to the Fiery X3e as a remote printer, or can print to a Windows NT 4.0/2000
server or UNIX workstation acting as a print server. Since the Fiery X3e spools jobs
and acts as a print server, there is no advantage in placing another print server between
a workstation and the Fiery X3e. If you choose to do so, however, there is no difference
in setup except that a client machine does not have its own spooling area.
