I'm using a 9600, but it should be the same.

First, follow the instructions in the Ethernet printserver manual 
(the online manual, not the paper getting-started manual) to assign 
your printer a fixed IP address. This step can be skipped, but then 
your printer may stop working if your network configuration changes. 
You'll need to know enough about your network to pick an IP address 
that won't cause conflicts.

Download QuadToneRIP2.1d.dmg from www.harrington.com and mount the 
disk image, then double-click on QuadToneRIP2.1d.pkg and let it 
install, then go into Profiles/7600-UC and double click on the 
Install7600ipp script to actually install the printer. Notice, there 
are two 7600 scripts, and you must use the one ending in "ipp" 
(stands for Internet Printing Protocol). The script asks for the IP 
address of the printer.

That's it. It just worked for me. If you're having difficulty with 
that procedure, you'll need to be more specific about what problems 
you're having.
