A-3 Token Ring Network Option
IPX/SPX installations
If your network uses IPX/SPX protocols with Token Ring, configure at least one
printer, one ColorPASS Print Server, and one ColorPASS Print Queue on the NetWare
server as described in “Configuring a NetWare 3.x or 4.x server for printing” on
page 5-7. You can configure up to eight bindery servers and one NDS tree connection
to the ColorPASS. This total is the same whether the ColorPASS is connected by
Token Ring, by Ethernet, or by both. For more information, see “Setting up an NDS
connection” on page 5-9.
TCP/IP installations
If your network uses TCP/IP protocols with Token Ring, configure at least one
printer and one ColorPASS queue on a Windows NT server (see “Configuring a
Windows NT 4.0 server to support the ColorPASS” on page 5-12), or on a UNIX
server (see “Setting up the ColorPASS on TCP/IP networks” on page 5-19).
Setting up Token Ring on the ColorPASS
Token Ring Setup on the Control Panel is similar to Ethernet Setup. From Network
Setup, perform Port Setup, Protocol Setup, and Service Setup. The setups you need are
summarized in the table on page 3-10.
NOTE: Connect the Token Ring cable before doing ColorPASS Network Setup, so that
the Token Ring card can configure itself properly.
Setting up NetWare Windows clients
Client setup is exactly the same as for IPX clients using Ethernet. See “Setting up
NetWare Windows clients for printing” on page 5-10 for details.
