How to use it
Installation and
Integration
The installation of the AXIS 5600 and its integration into the network 
is performed using the appropriate Axis client software, provided with 
your print server:
• AXIS NetPilot™ (NetWare - IPX)
• AXIS Print System (Windows 95/98, NT4.0 and 2000)
• AXIS Print Monitor (Windows NT 3.5x)
• AXIS Print Utility for Windows (Windows 3.1 and WfW)
• AXIS Print Utility for OS/2
• axinstall (UNIX)
Notes: ❏ The AXIS 5600 can be installed in the Macintosh environment 
without any Axis client software.
❏ The AXIS 5600 can be installed in NetWare - Pure IP 
environments with NetWare Administrator.
Configuration and
Management
As the AXIS 5600 comprises a built-in Web server, it can be 
configured and managed directly from its internal Web pages, using 
HTTP over TCP/IP. Access to the AXIS 5600 via any javascript-
enabled Web browser, offers you a platform-independent 
management tool that is suitable for all supported network 
environments.
In TCP/IP networks you can also use AXIS ThinWizard, which 
provides you with remote management capabilities for your AXIS 
ThinServer devices.
If your network does not support TCP/IP, you can use AXIS NetPilot 
to configure and manage the AXIS 5600. AXIS NetPilot supports 
communication via IPX/SPX and NetBIOS/NetBEUI.
