G E T T I N G S T A R T E D
Use these instructions to configure your Monarch Sierra Sport2
9460 SNP printer or your Monarch® Sierra Sport4™ 9493™ SNP printer.
Your printer contains an 802.11b/g print server (radio), which lets you
communicate with your printer on a wired Ethernet 802.3 network (9493
printer only), or on an 802.11b or 802.11g wireless network. 802.11b/g
refers to 802.11b and 802.11g in this manual.
The 9460 printer (version 3.0 or greater firmware and version 1.4 or greater
boot loader) and 9493 printer (version 1.0 or greater firmware and boot
loader) also include support for the Wavelink Avalanche Management
Console software.

O v e r v i e w
You can use the print server in Ad-Hoc (peer-to-peer) or infrastructure
(access point) wireless mode. The print server operates at speeds of up to
11 Mbps on any IEEE 802.11b and 54 Mbps on any IEEE 802.11g wireless
compatible networks.
The 9493 wireless print server includes a dual built-in wired Ethernet (802.3)
connection so the print server automatically switches between wireless and
wired Ethernet mode within the same subnet address. When switching
between wired and wireless mode on different subnets, turn off the printer
and then turn it back on to reinitialize the radio.
Follow the instructions in this manual to configure the wireless print server
for your printer. For more information and software downloads, see Chapter
7, "Troubleshooting."
