    BOUT UIDE This manual describes the 3 Parallel Port Ethernet/Fast Ethernet Multiprotocol Print Server, including a description of the print server’s features, as well as the print server installation procedures and troubleshooting self-test results. For information about software configuration of the Print Server to allow it to be used with your network, consult the PS Admin User’s Guide included with your Print Server.
  • Page 9: Introduction

    3 Parallel Port Multiprotocol Fast Ethernet Print Server User’s Guide The Print Server is a compact print server which connects to your Ethernet or Fast Ethernet network anywhere you wish to locate printer services. It manages the flow of print files from your workstations or file servers to its connected printers, delivering print jobs to high-performance printers much faster than a file server or a PC acting as a print server can.
  • Page 10 The Print Server's parallel printer ports are IEEE 1284 compliant high-speed bidirectional ports, which can transmit to high-speed laser printers much faster than a PC's parallel printer port. High-speed laser printers connected to the Print Server's parallel ports can be operated at their full capacity. Because the Print Server is very portable and inexpensive compared to a PC-based print server, and because the Print Server connects to your file servers through the network,...
