ETHERNET PRINT SERVERS HIGH SPEED AND 4-PORT
2.2 Benefits
With each network protocol, the Ethernet Print Servers give you these
benefits:
• High performance—send data as fast as your printer can receive the data.
• Easy installation—install the Ethernet Print Server quickly in three easy
steps: configure and activate each network protocol, plug in the devices,
and plug in the power supply.
• Full print-server support—supports all print-server features defined for
Novell, AppleTalk, and TCP/IP.
• Put printers anywhere—Directly connect up to four printers, or three
printers and one input device.
• Versatility—The Ethernet Print Server incorporates Streams, a UNIX
technology, to provide a common interface for error handling, operating
system and hardware interfacing normally done differently by each NOS.
So printing can be performed simultaneously and concurrently using
different protocols on the same or different printers.
2.3 About the Ethernet Print Server Troubleshooting Software for
Workstations
The Ethernet Print Server provides the following troubleshooting tools for
each NOS:
• For Novell, NIMANAGE lets users troubleshoot problems by sending test
prints or viewing status reports or error logs on the Ethernet Print Server,
check or modify any configuration option not directly tied to the print
server, and change the print server name, the printer ports it uses, and
the password it uses to log in.
• For AppleTalk, the AppleTalk Administration Program provides functions
that let you reset the Ethernet Print Server, view the Ethernet Print Server
configuration or an error log, and change the printer setup.
• For TCP/IP, the software provides error messages and a status page to
alert you to data that was incorrectly input.
