Macintosh (AppleTalk)
The Wireless Print Server supports AppleTalk (EtherTalk), PAP, ATP, NBP, ZIP and DDP protocols, enabling Macintosh computers on the network to view and use the Wireless Print Server as a regular AppleTalk printer.
Normally, no configuration is required.
Software Requirements
System 9.x OS or newer.
AppleTalk Setup
1.Click the apple icon and choose Control Panel - AppleTalk.
2.Ensure that Ethernet is selected under AppleTalk Connection.
3.Click Chooser. The Chooser panel will open.
4.Click on either the LaserWriter 8 icon (recommended) or the LaserWriter 7 icon. LaserWriter 8 makes use of the fonts installed in the printer itself, so the printing response time is quicker. LaserWriter 7 uses the fonts installed in the computer, which increases network traffic and takes more printing time.
5.Choose a PostScript printer from the list.
6.Click Create and it will search PPD automatically.
7.Select a printer description from the list.
8.Click Select.
Configuration is now complete.
Printing
Printing with the Wireless Print Server installed in an AppleTalk network is identical to normal printing. Just select File - Print and choose the desired printer.
Advanced Setup and Management
In a mixed Windows PC/Macintosh environment, you can use BiAdmin to configure the Wireless Print Server. See Chapter 5 for details on installing and using BiAdmin.
