55-18 Setting up Network ServersColorPASS on a network with UNIX workstationsWhen a UNIX workstation is configured with the lpd protocol, and connected to theColorPASS over a TCP/IP network, it can print directly to the ColorPASS.Setting up UNIX workstations requires an administrator with root privileges. After theinitial configuration, UNIX users simply submit print jobs to a named printer.The job management tools, along with the other Fiery utilities and Fiery WebTools,are not available on the UNIX platform. A Windows or Mac OS computer on thesame network as the UNIX computer that is set up to use TCP/IP for printing to theColorPASS can use the job management tools to manage print jobs that originate fromall workstations on the network.N OTE : The Fiery WebTools are not supported on Mac OS computers.Tips for experts—UNIX workstationsSetting up the ColorPASS in a UNIX environment has the same requirements assetting up any printer or new device:• A distinct IP address is needed for the ColorPASS as well as for each workstation onthe network.• You select a name for the ColorPASS that goes with the IP address.• The IP address of the ColorPASS must be registered for the network in a host database,and also on the ColorPASS itself.• The Print queue or the Hold queue (or both) must be published.Lpd printing to the Direct connection is not supported.The following information applies especially to the ColorPASS:• ColorPASS is a printer controller that understands lpd protocols.• ColorPASS has a remote printer name you must use in order to communicate with itsuccessfully.See the next section for details.
