1 Dell networked Printers are compatible with Microsoft, Novell and Linux operating systems, but Dell telephone support only supports factory-installed operating systems (Microsoft) for the first 30 days for free. See http://www1.us.dell.com/content/products/compare.aspx/laser?c=us&cs=555&l=en&s=biz for more details. The customer will have to purchase technical support from the manufacturer of the operating system in order to get technical assistance beyond 30 days.
2 If the customer has other operating systems, such as Novell or Linux, and has purchased Gold Technical Support (for more information on Gold Technical Support, see http://www.dell.com/us/en/gen/services/service_gts.htm), the telephone support will be a "best effort" attempt to resolve the operating system issue. If the manufacturer needs to be contacted, the customer must pay an additional fee for that support. The only time that Dell pays for the third party support is when Dell is responsible for the issue. In the case of getting the printers installed and working, this is configuration and the customer would be responsible for paying.

A Management Information Base (MIB) is a database containing information about network devices (such as adapters, bridges, routers, or computers). This information helps network administrators manage the network (analyze performance, traffic, errors, and so on). The 5100cn complies with standard industry MIB specifications, allowing the printer to be recognized and managed by various printer and network management software systems, such as IBM Tivoli, Hewlett-Packard OpenView, CA Unicenter, Hewlett-Packard Web JetAdmin, and so on.
