as Windows 2000/XP/Vista, Windows Server 2003, and Macintosh 8.6
or higher.
This guide explains how to connect the Network Printer Card and set up
your printer as a print sever over the network.
This guide assumes that you have:
•
A good working knowledge of your network utilities
•
A supported network operating system
•
A fully operational computer system
•
Access to the supervisor account as a network administrator, or
access to an account that has supervisor and print server operator
privileges
