Using a NetBIOS Network
Setting Up a Computer as a File Server
To send data from the machine to a computer on your network, you need to specify
the settings of the computer for receiving data. You can send data over a NetBIOS
network to a Windows shared folder. This section describes how to configure a
shared folder.
IMPORTANT
• This section describes only the procedures for setting up a computer receiving data sent
from the machine. To send data from the machine to a server on the network, you must
enter an address setting from the control panel. For instructions on how to specify
recipient address settings, see Chapter 2, "Basic Sending Methods," in the Sending
Guide.
• The following procedures describe a sample shared folder configuration. Depending on
your environment, the actual configuration procedure may differ.
NOTE
You can send data over a TCP/IP network from the machine to an FTP server. For
instructions on how to set up an FTP server, see "Setting Up a Computer as a File
Server," on p. 3-35.
Connecting to a TCP/IP Network
A computer that receives data sent from the machine must have TCP/IP client
software installed and must be enabled for TCP/IP network use. For details, see the
documentation provided with the operating system.
