64 CONFIGURING THE M204 FOR APPLETALK: Additional Configuration Options
M204name_papname
where M204name is the name of the M204 and papname is
an M204 I/O port. Both names are configurable.
M_000BF5_prn1
is the printer associated with the M204 named M_000BF5 using the first parallel
port.
The Print Server’s default name is M_xxxxxx where xxxxxx equals the last six
digits of the unit’s Ethernet address found on the bottom of the unit.
3 From the list of printers, select one to print to.
You have now configured your AppleTalk system to print to the M204.
Additional Configuration Options
AppleTalk Zones
If the M204 does not come up in the correct AppleTalk zone, you can configure a par-
ticular zone name on the unit. To do this, start an npsh session with the unit and enter
the following command:
store pserver apple zone [ zonename]
reset
where zonename is the zone where you want the M204 to appear.
To clear the AppleTalk zone, type the command without entering a zonename and
press <Enter>.
Changing Print Server Name
By default, the Print Server’s name is
M204name_papname
where M204name is the
name of the M204 and papname is an M204 I/O port. The npsh command, list
pserver, will give you a listing showing both the Print Server name and the papname.
The following example details the steps necessary to change the name that appears in
the Chooser from M_000BF5_prn1 to Sales_laser.
1 Start an npsh session with the unit.
2 Enter the name that you would like to appear for the Print Server (e.g. Sales). This
will make up the first part of the name in the Chooser.
