Introduction
This chapter provides details of your LevelOne Printer Server's
features and components.
Congratulations on the purchase of your new LevelOne Printer Server. This device was
designed to provide a simple and efficient network printing solution.
Features
Versatility. The LevelOne Printer Server supports up to five protocols: NetWare,
TCP/IP, SMB (Service Message Block), AppleTalk (EtherTalk), and NetBEUI. Most
models feature an auto-sensing 10/100BaseT Ethernet interface port. Operating system
support includes Unix, Novell, and Microsoft Windows.
Easy Installation. The LevelOne Printer Server makes adding printers or plotters to
your network simple. The auto-sensing feature on the LAN interface means that there
is no need to set jumpers or perform software configuration to select the network speed
or duplex setting.
Easy Setup. A number of utility programs are supplied to simplify setup. For
Windows 95/98/NT users, the BiAdmin program makes it easy to configure the
LevelOne Printer Server for a variety of network and server configurations.
Web-based interface. On models supporting 100BaseT, the LevelOne Printer Server
incorporates a Web-based interface to provide an easy method of configuration in
TCP/IP networks. When using this method, no software needs to be installed.
Compact Size. This allows the LevelOne Printer Server to be used even where space
is limited.
Remote Management Tools. A variety of software tools are provided. In most
environments, both the LevelOne Printer Server and attached bi-directional printers can
be configured remotely.
SNMP Support. The LevelOne Printer Server can act as a SNMP agent, with it own
MIB. This allows TCP/IP users to monitor, configure and troubleshoot the LevelOne
Printer Server using their existing SNMP management tools.
JetAdmin Support . 100BaseT models support HP's JetAdmin utility. If you are
already using this program, you can also use it to manage your LevelOne Printer Server.
Internet Printing. Using TCP/IP, the LevelOne Printer Server can be configured to
allow clients, suppliers, colleagues and others to print to one of your printers from
anywhere on the Internet.
Year 2000 Compliance
The LevelOne Printer Server does not store the date, nor does it perform date calculations.
When necessary, it obtains the current date from the network or client operating system. We
recommend the use of network and client operating systems which are year 2000 compliant.
