Configuration Options
TROY200 Series Print Servers (wired and wireless models) can be configured using a variety of options,
some of which do not require any software installation on the host PC. The print server can be configured
and managed via an Ethernet or wireless connection using the ExtendView Utility (recommended), the
embedded web (HTTP) server pages, or the print server’s internal configuration console, which can be
accessed via a Telnet connection. If you choose to use the TROY ExtendView Utility (provided on the
TROY200 Series Print Server Installation CD), the software must be installed prior to use. Additional
options for print server configuration and management are available as third-party utilities that can be
downloaded from their respective web sites. If you are using a wireless print server, you can still
configure it via an Ethernet connection or optionally configure it via a wireless connection.
