Changing the printer’s name from a Macintosh

The printer’s name has the following characteristics:

Is printed on the startup and configuration pages.

Is used by AppleTalk to identify the printer.

Appears in the

Chooser

.

Can be up to 31 characters long, and may contain any printable
characters except

@

(at sign) and

:

(colon).

The default printer name is

Phaser 600

. If more than one printer with the

same name appears in the same zone, numbers are appended to the
names of the printers added later, for example Phaser 600-1 and
Phaser 600-2. These numbered printers appear in the Chooser; the actual
printername is not changed.

A name change is persistent across printer power cycles.
