CHAPTER SEVEN
AppleTalk (EtherTalk) TCP/IP
Printing
Printing from a Macintosh
Overview
Print servers support the AppleTalk protocol running over Ethernet (also known as
EtherTalk). This allows Macintosh users to print at the same time as all other
Ethernet network using the AppleTalk (also referred to as EtherTalk) protocol.
With the release of Mac OS 8.6 or later, Apple introduced a TCP/IP printing
capability. This allows Macintosh users to send print jobs using the TCP/IP protocol.
Quick Tips:
1. The default name that will appear in the Chooser of a Macintosh will usually
be BRN_xxxxxx_P1_AT (where xxxxxx is the last 6 digits of the Ethernet
address)
2. From a Macintosh network, the easiest way to change this name is to assign
an IP address to the printer and then use a Web browser to change the name.
Connect to the print using a web browser and then click on " Network
Configuration " enter the password, then select "Configure AppleTalk",
Click "BRN_xxxxxx_P1_AT", then on Service Name, enter the new name
that you wish to appear in Chooser. Then click on "Submit".
3. Mac OS 8.6 or later supports TCP/IP printing.
4. The default password for print servers is "access".
5. The default IP address of print servers is 0.0.0.0. To change it, use the
BRAdmin application, the printer control panel or let your DHCP server
allocate an IP address to the printer.
