AppleTalk network print jobs.

If you have TCP/IP available on your network, we recommend you assign an IP address to
the MarkNet print server. Running TCP/IP with your print server lets you use the full range of
print management tools and perform the easiest configuration.

can use Method 2 as well.
If you are not running TCP/IP, you must use Method 2.
