Part No. 6B4389 June 1999 A-1
Appendix A NIC Services
Overview
A service is a resource for the Kodak Professional network
interface card (NIC) that must be selected by computers
configured to print to a NIC. The NIC provides the following
predefined services as defaults (xxxxxx is the last six digits of the
NIC’s Ethernet address):
Use the default services for the NIC used in typical Windows and
Macintosh networked environments. However, it may be desirable
to modify a service name to reflect something more meaningful to
users when browsing a network for a Kodak printer.
• Service TEXT_P1 is not applicable to Kodak PostScript/raster
printers and should not be used.
• Port P1 is the representation of the NIC’s interface port to the
printer. Since there is only one interface, P1 is the only option.
• Filter 0 = No filter. The AppleTalk filter (#2) is the only pertinent
filter that must be used to define an AppleTalk compatible
service, KOD_xxxxxx_P1_AT.
• BOT & EOT = 1 = “Null String”. This means that there are no
Beginning or End Of Transfer command strings associated
with any of the default services.
• Options = Bidirectional and queueing are enabled for all
services.
