Network Services - Overview
The Ethernet option provides the services described in this section. (Note: Other additional
services include a Ping client, address assignment and Printer discovery functions.)
Reviewing the Print Server
The Print Server provides printing services in the same manner as a Printer connected
directly to a USB interface except that the Printer is connected through the local area
network to the client PC. The Print Server must be properly configured in order to provide
this printing capability.
• The Print Server is capable of queuing up to eight (8) client PCs while printing.
Communications between each PC and the Ethernet-enabled Fargo Printer are
implemented over a bi-directional TCP/IP interface.
• All clients are able to send print jobs to the Printer and monitor Printer jobs and errors
with the standard Windows printing system using the Fargo Printer Driver installed on
their local PC.
