Chapter 2. Installing and configuring InfoPrint XT
This chapter describes how to install software, configure a base InfoPrint XT for
Windows (InfoPrint XT) system, and test the installation.
Understanding software requirements
Before you install InfoPrint XT you must first install other required software
products and their prerequisites. You might also want to install an optional
software product that can benefit the installation.
Required operating system
Install one of these Microsoft Windows versions:
v Windows 2000 Professional, Service Pack 4 (SP4) or later
v Windows 2000 Server, SP4 or later
v Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition, Service Pack 2 (SP2) or later
v Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard Edition, Service Pack 1 (SP1) or later
v Windows XP Professional, SP2 or later
Note:
Make sure that you install the latest Service Pack and any fixes for the
operating system before you install any other software, such as one of the
UNIX emulation tools or InfoPrint XT. If you do not, problems can occur.
Required UNIX emulation tools
You must install a Microsoft UNIX emulation tool before you install InfoPrint XT.
The tool that you install depends on the Windows version that you use. You can
download the software for the tools, without charge, from the Microsoft Web site:
http://www.microsoft.com
Microsoft Services for UNIX
You must install Microsoft Windows Services for UNIX (SFU), version 3.5 if you
use one of these versions of Windows:
v Windows 2000 Professional
v Windows 2000 Server
v Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition
v Windows XP Professional
Download the SFU35SEL_EN.exe file from Microsoft. Although the Web site
provides detailed information about SFU system requirements, note these
minimum and maximum considerations:
v 16 MB of RAM (minimum).
v 20 MB of hard disk space (minimum). Depending on the SFU installation
options that you select, SFU can require up to 360 MB of hard disk space.
v CD-ROM drive.
v SFU is not compatible with file allocation table (FAT) file systems. You must
install SFU in a partition that was formatted for the NT file system (NTFS).
