Chapter 4:
Bi-Admin Management
Overview
The PrintServer is managed by a utility program called Bi-Admin on the PrintServer’s Setup CD. Fully compatible with Windows 98, Me, 2000, and XP, Bi-Admin allows you to change the PrintServer’s internal settings, check the unit’s status, and perform basic diagnostic tests.
Note that the Bi-Admin program must be installed only on the network administrator’s computer. First, you will install Bi-Admin on your computer. Then, you will be able to use the management utility.
