Macintosh (AppleTalk)
The Print Server supports AppleTalk (EtherTalk), PAP, ATP, NBP, ZIP and DDP protocols,
enabling Macintosh computers on the network to view and use the Print Server as a regular
AppleTalk printer.
Normally, no configuration is required.
Software Requirements
System 7.x OS or newer.
AppleTalk Setup
1. Click the apple icon and choose Control Panel.
2. Click Network.
3. Ensure that EtherTalk is selected under AppleTalk Connection.
4. Click Chooser. The Chooser panel will open.
5. Click on either the LaserWriter 8 icon (recommended) or the LaserWriter 7 icon.
LaserWriter 8 makes use of the fonts installed in the printer itself, so the printing response
time is quicker. LaserWriter 7 uses the fonts installed in the computer, which increases
network traffic and takes more printing time.
6. Select a Print Server from the printer list by clicking on the appropriate name. The Print
Server's name is recorded on a label on the bottom of the Print Server as "Server Name".
This name consists of 8 digits and/or numbers.
7. Click on the Close box.
Configuration is now complete.
Printing
Printing with the Print Server installed in an AppleTalk network is identical to normal printing.
Just select File - Print and choose the desired printer.
