Introduction
Your printer has a built-in Ethernet interface. This manual
contains information about the Internal Print Server of your
printer and the configuration software, EpsonNet
WinAssist/MacAssist/WebAssist, that configures it for network
printing. For information about the printer, see your
Reference
Guide .
The Internal Print Server can connect anywhere on your network
using 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX. The Internal Print Server
automatically selects the correct standard when it connects to a
network. In addition, it supports and automatically selects IEEE
802.2, IEEE 802.3, Ethernet II, and Ethernet SNAP network
protocols.
Because the Internal Print Server supports multiple protocols and
automatically detects protocols on your network, you can print
from Microsoft
®
Windows
®
, Apple
®
Macintosh
®
, UNIX
®
, and
IBM
®
OS/2 applications.
Use EpsonNet WinAssist or MacAssist, the configuration utilities
provided with your printer, to quickly and easily configure the
Internal Print Server to use protocols such as IPX/SPX™, TCP/IP,
AppleTalk
®
, and NetBEUI.
Note:
The EpsonNet WinAssist/MacAssist utility configures the Internal
Print Server to work only with protocols that exist on your network.
This does not imply that you can use all of the above mentioned protocols
in your network or operating system. The protocols that the Internal
Print Server can use may vary depending on the operating systems used
and network configuration.
