Printer > CONFIGURATION — Apple page fields

Field	Description
AppleTalk Zone	Sets the AppleTalk zone having access to the print server. The zone name can be up to 32
	characters long. The default “*” enables all AppleTalk zones to use the printer(s) connected to
	the print server.
Printer Type	Sets the printer type. The default, LaserWriter, is used for most AppleTalk printers. If you have
	an Epson printer that supports AppleTalk, it has a different printer type, found in the Epson
	printer manual or web site. The SBG1000 print server only responds to the Chooser if the
	AppleTalk zone and printer type are the same.

Communication Protocol Standard - if the printer uses a communication protocol that supports sending and receiving ASCII data. The Standard protocol is typically supported on devices using RS-232 and centronics channels. The default is ASCII.

Binary Communication Protocol (BCP) - if the printer can send and receive binary data. BCP is used by some devices for flow control, status request, abort job, and end of file functions. BCP can provide a significant performance advantage over ASCII printing on serial and parallel ports.

Tagged Binary Communication Protocol (TBCP) - for a printer containing a language-independent feature to determine which language interprets a print job. TBCP is typically supported by PJL printers.

To determine the protocol a printer supports, see the documentation provided with the printer.
