Networking Printers
Saves You Money
Now you can convert your
stand-alone printer, which
serviced one user, into a
Network Printer which can
service multiple users! Simply
attach a M307 Ethernet Print
Server to your printer's parallel
port. You can now locate the
printer anywhere on a 10 Base-
T or 100 Base-T LAN. After
following some simple
configuration steps, the printer
can be simultaneously shared
with users on a TCP/IP
Network.

Microplex Installation
and Management
Options
Use built-in HTML forms for
easy cross platform
configuration with any web
browser as well as software
tools such as:
Waldo , a TCP/IP configuration
tool which locates Microplex
devices on the network and
allows one to monitor or
configure them on a TCP/IP
network. The software is a Java
stand-alone program.
The M307 includes a detailed
and easy-to-use command shell
"npsh" and allows remote
management through Telnet
sessions, "rsh/rcmd/remsh"
commands, SNMP and
predefined log methods; and
has extensive built-in
troubleshooting tools.
Microplex has developed its
own SNMP custom MIB, which,
together with support for MIB II,
means the M307 can be fully
managed using standards-
based SNMP managers such
as HP's Open View, Sun's Sun
Net Manager and Castle Rock's
SNMPc.
