Introduction

The C82362EpsonNet 10 Base 2/T Internal Print Server and C82363/C82364EpsonNet 10/100 Base TX Internal Print Server are a combination of hardware and software that let you connect an EPSON printer equipped with an optional interface slot directly to your network. Install the interface card into your printer’s optional interface slot (see your printer documentation or contact your EPSON dealer for applicable models), and connect it anywhere on your network.

Note:

This manual is written for network administrators, and many of the steps included here require detailed network knowledge and administrator rights. The term network administrator refers to the person responsible for maintaining the customer network. “Administrator” is synonymous with “Supervisor” in this manual.

The term “interface card” refers to C82362, C82363, and C82364in this manual.

The interface card automatically selects the correct interface when it connects to the network. In addition, it supports IEEE 802.2, IEEE 802.3, Ethernet II, and Ethernet SNAP network protocols.

Because the interface card supports multiple protocols and automatically detects the protocols on your network, you can print from Microsoft® Windows®, Apple® Macintosh®, UNIX, and IBM® OS/2 applications.

Use EpsonNet WinAssist or MacAssist, the configuration software provided with your interface card, to quickly and easily configure the interface card to use protocols such as IPX/SPX™, TCP/IP, EtherTalk®, and NetBEUI.
