Selecting a Zone
The HP LaserJet Utility allows you to select a preferred zone for your
printer on a Phase 2 EtherTalk network. Instead of your printer
remaining on the default zone, which is set by the router, this utility
lets you select the zone on which your printer appears. The zones on
which your printer can reside are limited by your network
configuration. The HP LaserJet Utility only enables you to select a
zone that is already configured for your network.
Zones are groups of computers, printers, and other AppleTalk devices.
They can be grouped by physical location (for example, Zone A may
contain all the printers on the network in building A). They may also
be grouped logically (for example, all printers used in the finance
department).
