Viewing and changing the communication settings

The standard communication settings of the LaserWriter 12/640 PS work for most environments. To make sure the printer is set up to use the standard settings, check that the communication switch on the left side of the printer is in the Normal (in) position. The switch is located below the interface connectors.

You can view and change the standard communication settings for the printer with the Apple Printer Utility. The NetWare, TCP/IP, and Parallel interfaces are set to AutoSelect, which turns on automatic language sensing. Automatic language sensing allows the printer to receive information over the network and determine which page-description language—PostScript or PCL5—is required.
