AppleTalk

AppleTalk is a proprietary suite of protocols developed for networking computers by Apple, Inc.

Notes:

AppleTalk has been deprecated by Apple, Inc., in favor of TCP/IP networking.

If your printer is locked, you must log in as a system administrator. For details, see

Accessing CentreWare IS

on page 17.

Before you begin, ensure the following items are available:

1.

An existing operational AppleTalk network.

2.

The AppleTalk Name you wish to assign to your printer.

3.

The AppleTalk Zone, if used, to assign to your printer.

Enabling AppleTalk on the printer

Select Enabled to enable the protocol.

3.

Type a name for the printer in Printer Name or use the default name XRX_MAC address.

Note:

The default star (*) symbol for zone allows the closest router to assign the printer to a zone.
