Getting Started

Determining the Active Print Server

Active Device Selection

Your active print server selection is dependent on the model of printer or print engine that you have.

S4M

Only one print server (wired or wireless) can be installed at a

ZT210

time. Thus, the print server installed is the primary print server.

ZT220

 

ZT230

 

 

 

 

105SL

You may select which installed device is the primary network

XiIIIPlus

device. The printer will try to use the primary network device as

R110Xi

the active print server before trying the other installed options.

R170Xi

These printers and print engines use X60.16.x or later firmware.

Z4Mplus

The default for the printer is to skip the check for a wired print

Z6Mplus

server during bootup. This makes the wireless print server the

PAX4

primary network device if a wireless print server is installed. To

R110PAX4

change this default and allow the wired print server to be the

primary network device when it is connected, use one of the

 

 

 

 

following methods to tell the printer to check for a wired print

 

 

server at bootup time:

 

 

the WIRED PS CHECK parameter on the control panel

 

 

the ^NB ZPL command

 

 

Table 14 identifies which device becomes the active print server

 

 

under various conditions.

 

 

 

Xi4

These printers support the simultaneous installation of an

R110Xi4

internal, external, and a wireless print server. Even though all

ZD500R

three print servers may be installed, only one is connected to the

ZM400

network and is the active print server.

ZM600

Table 15 outlines priorities and identifies which device becomes

ZT410

the active print server when multiple print servers are installed.

ZT420

You may select whether the wired or wireless print server will be

RZ400

the primary connection by using one of the following methods:

RZ600

the PRIMARY NETWORK parameter on the control panel

ZE500

the ^NC ZPL command
