Can't print with AppleTalk

G
Make sure that AppleTalk printing is configured and enabled on the print
server. Check Status in Netport Manager or Web Netport Manager.
G
The router's configuration of zone names may be incomplete. If the
Chooser does not show the zone name of the NetportExpress print server,
check your router's configuration of zone names. You must have a router
and valid zone name to print with AppleTalk.
G
The zone name selected in the Chooser may not be the same as the zone
name configured on the print server.
G
AppleTalk may not be enabled on the Macintosh workstation. Make sure
there are zones visible in the Chooser.
G
The wrong printer type might be entered on the print server. Try setting
LaserWriter as the printer type in Netport Manager or Web Netport
Manager.

Can't print a test page

G
Make sure your printer can be networked, see Can my printer be
networked? on page 7.
G
The parallel port speed must match the printer speed. For more information,
see parallel port settings in the Online Guide index.
G
Check the printer to see if it is out of paper or jammed. Print a self-test
page to make sure the printer is operational.
G
Make sure the printer cable is stamped "IEEE 1284 compliant" or does not
exceed six feet in length. If you suspect something is wrong with the cable,
replace it with a known good cable.
G
Make sure your printer is capable of printing ASCII or PostScript text. For
NetportExpress PRO print servers, the printer must be able to print ASCII
text.
Note: To print the test page or diag page from the print server, only PostScript or
ASCII supported printing is required. Windows is not effected.
