INSTALLATION 25
Network
Make sure that the network will be available at the time set for installation.
Verify with the network administrator that the network is functioning before you attach
the imagePRESS Server.
Make sure that the configuration requirements specified in Configuration and Setup
(on the User Documentation CD) have been met for remote computers and the network.
Setting customer expectations
When the site is ready, installation of the imagePRESS Server takes about one hour. Inform
the customer of the following:
• Some nodes on the network may be unavailable for up to one hour.
• The copier may be unavailable for up to one hour.
• The network administrator must be available during the installation for network
connectivity.
Equipment downtime and impact on the network can be minimized if the network
administrator installs a network connector for the imagePRESS Server and confirms
network functionality with the connector in place before the date scheduled for the
imagePRESS Server installation.
• The network administrator must make a networked computer available during the
installation. The appropriate software must be installed in advance. Documentation for
the networked computer and network operating software should be available.
• The network administrator must install the user software shipped with the
imagePRESS Server onto networked Windows and Mac OS computers that print to the
imagePRESS Server (user documentation is also included).
NOTE: This guide covers hardware installation and service and provides general information
about connecting the imagePRESS Server to the customer’s network. Network Setup and
configuration information exceeds the scope of this guide. For Network Setup and
configuration information, refer the network administrator to Configuration and Setup on the
User Documentation CD.
