TCP/IP Print Server – Changing TCP/IP or Host Access Configuration (10/29/01 mlr) 

3

Introduction 

TCP/IP Print Servers, not to be confused with Network Print Servers such as HP JetDirect, are 
used to receive and distribute messages to the various Apollo® printing devices.  This includes 
Ticket Printer, Itinerary/Invoice Printers, OSDP Manager and back office Accounting Interface 
(MIR). 

Galileo also provides Focalpoint Print Manager™, a Windows™ based print distribution 
application.  If you use this solution for Galileo® or Apollo® host printing, please refer to the 
instruction guide for that application to make appropriate changes. 

This document will provide the steps required in changing configuration settings.  These include: 

IP Address, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway: 

Used to communicate with the Host 

Reservation System 

Configuration Servers: 

The servers used to authenticate users into the Galileo® or Apollo® 

system 

Client Identifier: 

Alphanumeric code used to authenticate users into the Galileo® or Apollo® 

reservation system. 

GTID (Global Terminal Identifier): 

A six digit alphanumeric code used by Apollo® or 

Galileo® to identify a print device.
