5. AppleTalk Configuration
and Administration Program

5.1 Introduction

This chapter explains how to configure and use the AppleTalk Administration
Program.
• If you are configuring your AppleTalk network for the Ethernet Print
Server/MIO, then first read Section 5.3.
• If you want to use the AppleTalk Administration Program, go to
Section 5.4.

5.2 Enable the AppleTalk Protocol

Make sure the AppleTalk protocol is enabled, or you will not be able to print.
Use NIMANAGE to check or to enable the AppleTalk protocol.
5.3 Configuration—For AppleTalk
Attach a PostScript printer to the Ethernet Print Server's parallel port #1
and you do not need to do anything else to configure the Print Server.
Macintosh computers can print to any PostScript Ethernet Print Server
printer by using Chooser to select your network and printer (Ethernet
Print Server #<serial_number> 1), where 1 stands for the Ethernet Print
Server parallel port #1). Once selected, print as you normally would. If
you do not attach a PostScript printer to parallel port #1 (and do not plan
to connect one), you must install and use the AppleTalk Administration
Program (included in your package) to configure the Ethernet Print
Server for AppleTalk users.
How to Configure
• If you have a PostScript printer connected to the Ethernet Print Server
parallel port #1, then all you need to do is choose a printer. Go to
Choosing the Printer in this section.
• If you have more than one printer you want to print to, then you need to
set up the Ethernet Print Server for each printer. Go to Section 5.4.
