Will the ZebraNet

PSII

allow

connectivity to anything other
than a PC network?

Yes.

The ZebraNet

PSII

allows connectivity to

systems such as IBM’s AS400, provided that
it is configured using TCP/IP. Other network
protocols can be used with third party
adapters that are converted to 10BASE-T.

Will the ZebraNet

PSII

option

work on a 10BASE-T per second
network?

No.

The ZebraNet

PSII

option is a 10BASE-T

print server. This means that the data cannot
travel any faster than 10 megabits per second.
The ZebraNet

PSII

can be deployed on a

network that is utilizing 10/100 hubs, but the
ZebraNet

PSII

operates only at 10 megabits

per second.

What if a print job makes it to
the queue, but never leaves the
queue? The label does not print.

These are the things to check:
• Confirm that the printer is turned on and
receiving power.
• Confirm that the network cable is plugged
in and that you can ping the printer.

If the above bullets do not change the
outcome, it is likely that there was a
misconfiguration while creating the queue.
The queue must be recreated verifying the
following:

• Confirm that you use the print servers valid
IP address.
• If you are using a UNIX or AS/400 host,
there is an option for the remote queue name.
There is only one valid response to use:
PORTLF1.
• If Windows does not have LPR installed
the above required option should be left
blank.
• See the documentation for other operating
system specific queue creation.
