The test button is used for:
• Printing a test page to check the connection to the printer.
• Printing a server report and parameter list to see the print server's
current settings.
• Performing a Factory Default of the print server, which will restore most
of the parameters and settings to factory default values.
See The Test Button, on page 122 for details.
The network indicator flashes to indicate network activity.
The power indicator is lit while power is applied. If it is not lit, or if it
flashes, there is a problem with the print server or its Power Adapter.
All printers can be used except host-based printers (also known as CAPT,
GDI, PPA or Windows-based printers).
The print server can be configured and managed from its internal Web
pages, using HTTP as well as HTTPS in the secure mode. These Web pages
offer you a platform independent management tool that is suitable for all
supported network environments. See Using a Web Browser for Print
Server Management, on page 79 for details.
