19 Configuring the Printer for the Network See the table below to find your network configuration (operating system and protocol), and determine what to install and where to find instructions for configuring your network. For many operating systems, you can change configuration settings using the Ethernet card’s internal home page.
20 * To use the Ethernet card home page, you must have TCP/IP setup on your network, as well as either Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 or later, or Netscape Navigator TM 3.0 or later. ** If you have a Windows NT 4.0 Server network, you may need to install the driver only on the server.
