This appendix provides summary information on the parameters that
control the basic operation of the SNA communication and the IBM
printer emulation. It also describes how these parameters may be
changed.
An overview of how parameters are mapped during the auto-
configuration process is also provided.
Refer to the Parameter List document on www.axis.com for a complete
description of the Axis Print server parameters.
In most environments, the basic communication parameters need to be
customized in order to establish a communication link to the host system.
This includes setting the Host MAC Address and Host Name parameters in
the Print Server. In this chapter you will find instructions on how to
update these parameters.
There are several parameters that control the basic operation of the SNA
communication, and IBM printer emulation. The diagram below shows
how they relate to the SNA printing process.
