Using the Ethernet Card as a Print Server

Each Ethernet Card, when running in print server mode, requires a connection to a file server. In addition, the Ethernet Card can service up to 32 queues and eight file servers in print server mode.

Make sure the host printer is turned on and the interface is connected to the network, then follow these steps to configure the Ethernet Card.

Note:

Before running the EPSON Net! utility, you must log on to the selected file server with supervisor privileges before you can configure the Ethernet Card.

Setting up queues on a file server

To set up queues on a file server in print server mode, follow the steps below. To configure the printer as a remote printer, see “Using the Ethernet Card as a Remote Printer” later in this chapter. For information on using your printer as a print server in Auto PrintServer/Remote mode, see page 2-18.

Note:

The following examples are based on the Windows version of the setup utility. However, the menus and procedures used in configuring the Ethernet Card are the same for both versions of the utility.
