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