3.4. Advanced setup and management
This section explains the configuration changes that can be made to your FastPrint.
3.4.1. Changing the FastPrint configuration

Chapter 8 - Management Tools describes the general-purpose management tools that can
be used to configure and manage your FastPrint. All of these programs require a version
of Microsoft Windows.
The FPSAdmin program, which requires Windows 95 or Windows NT, allows access to
all settings, not just those important in the AppleTalk environment.
3.4.1.2. Macintosh software
In AppleTalk, you can use SimpleText to edit the FastPrint Server’s CONFIG file and
the supplied PSTool program to send it to the FastPrint. The procedure is as follows:

appropriate folder on your hard disk.
PSTool
CONFIG.3p
2. Use Chooser to select the desired FastPrint Server.
