To "Settings/Registration Table"

This section describes how to specify the protocol settings for the machine using the control panel. If you are configuring the settings for the first time, use the control panel of the machine.

After configuring the settings, you can change them using software other than the control panel of the machine. For details, see "Settings/Registration."

• Depending on the machine you are using, you may have to use optional equipment to print via an AppleTalk network. For the equipment needed, see "Optional Equipment and System Requirements."

1. On the Network screen, press [AppleTalk Settings] → specify the following.

[On] for <Use AppleTalk>: You can use the AppleTalk network.

In [Service Name], enter a name for the printer not longer than 32 characters. The name you enter here appears on the Macintosh screen.

If you are using a network that is set up in zones, enter the name of the zone in [Zone].

If you want to use the PS printer driver with the PS Printer Kit, set whether to apply spooling to the print job.

[Spool]: The machine specified in [Service Name] prints only after spooling the print job to the hard disk. If you entered "Printer1" for [Service Name] and select [Spool] for <Print Mode>, "Printer1_S" is displayed on the Macintosh printer screen.

[Direct]: The machine specified in [Service Name] prints without spooling the print job to the hard disk. If you entered "Printer2" for [Service Name] and select [Direct] for <Print Mode>, "Printer2_D" is displayed on the Macintosh printer screen.

[Both]: The machine specified in [Service Name] prints either with or without spooling the print job to the hard disk. If you entered "Printer3" for [Service Name] and select [Both] for <Print Mode>, "Printer3_S" and "Printer3_D" are displayed on the Macintosh printer screen, enabling you to select whether to spool a print job on the Macintosh screen whenever you perform printing.

• If you set <Use AppleTalk> to 'On', the machine will not enter a complete Sleep mode.

• If there is more than one printer in the same zone, each printer must have a unique name.

• You can also enter a zone name by pressing [Browse] and selecting the appropriate name from the displayed list.
