The IB-2x CD-ROM includes the software utilities necessary to install the IB-2x interface card under various environments. A single integrated installer, the IB-2x CD includes the Quick Setup Wizard, Advanced Setup, KPrint port installer, and the NetWare NDPS gateway.
The IB-2x CD is for use in the following environments:
Inserting the IB-2x CD causes the Main Menu to be displayed. If the Main Menu is not shown automatically, run the Setup.exe file in the root directory of the CD.
The IB-2x CD includes the following utility software and documentation:
| Quick Setup Wizard | This utility is run directly from the CD; it is not installed to the user’s hard disk. The Windows-based wizard interface is designed for fast and easy initial configuration of the basic settings. |
| Quick Setup allows configuration of TCP/IP, NetWare, AppleTalk, NetBEUI, and password protection all in a single wizard interface. | |
| For more information, see the IB-2x Quick Reference Guide (available in hardcopy format). | |
| Advanced Setup | Installs and runs AdminManager, a Windows-based utility that may be used in either an IP or IPX environment to fully configure any of the IB-2x settings. AdminManager may be installed on the hard disk or run from the IB-2x CD by selecting Advanced Setup from the IB-2x Configuration menu. |
| Advanced Setup is fully detailed throughout this manual. A full list of functionality is provided under Software Functionality. | |
| KPrint | Installs a printer port for Windows 95/98 enabling TCP/IP printing to any IB-2x connected Kyocera printer. KPrint can also create ports which use IPP (Internet Printing Protocol). |
| Note: KPrint is not available for Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 because these Windows versions already include TCP/IP printing services. For details see Windows NT 4.0 LPR Printing | |
| Online Manuals | In addition to the above utilities, the IB-2x CD includes the IB-2x Configuration Guide (this guide) and the IB-2x Quick Configuration Guide (PDF format) as the online references. The IB-2x Quick Configuration Guide is also supplied as a hardcopy manual for convenience. |
| Kyocera Mita PrintMonitor | Ongoing printer management and monitoring is often done with the Windows-based Kyocera Mita PrintMonitor programs. Kyocera Mita PrintMonitor allows advanced grouping, filtering, and sorting of multiple Kyocera and other vendor printers. It provides several options for notification of printer warnings or errors and may be used to view or modify a wide variety of printer and IB-2x settings. Kyocera Mita PrintMonitor is available on the IB-2x CD. |
