The EZWebCon configuration software is the easiest way to
configure the MPS. The following sections cover print configuration
methods for AppleTalk hosts.
Note: The MPS needs an IP address before you can use
EZWebCon. See Setting the IP Address on page 4-1 for
instructions.
Note: Macintoshes that do not support EtherTalk will need either
an Ethernet card or a LocalTalk-to-EtherTalk router to use the
MPS.
Note: The LPS1-T does not support AppleTalk Protocol.
Bitronics
Printing from a Macintosh is only possible with a PostScript printer
and bi-directional communication between the MPS and that
printer. The MPS supports the Bitronics interface, an extension to
the standard Centronics interface. Printers that support Bitronics
allow bi-directional communication. To enable Bitronics on an MPS
port, use the Define Port 1 Bitronics Enabled command.
Note: MacOS 8.1 can also print via LPD. See the Print Server
Reference Manual located on the CD-ROM and web site for
configuration instructions.
Macintosh Services
Before attempting to print from a Macintosh, ensure that AppleTalk
and PostScript are both enabled on at least one service. Once a
PostScript AppleTalk service is configured, the service will appear
in the Chooser as a LaserWriter in the same zone as the MPS.
Select the service in the Chooser and complete the appropriate
setup options. Then close the Chooser window and print a test
page of text to the Macintosh service.
