JET 6530 supports Windows (98 SE, Me, NT 4.x and XP), Mac OS X, Solaris, HP-UX, IBM AIX and Linux clients. See the Install / Requirements page for supported browsers and Java virtual machines.

JET 6530 works with any standard web server. JET 6530 uses Netscape's SmartUpdate and Microsoft's Distribution Units technologies to install the JET 6530 class files on the client's hard disk. This means the class files are only downloaded from the web server to the client once, unless there is a new release at the web server. Thereafter, the JET 6530 applet is installed from the client hard drive. This improves performance noticably for clients with a slow link (i.e. 56kbps or slower).
