Technical information

Configuring the printer
Though the printer itself has no control panel, you can configure it by using
programs on computers connected to the printer:
m On Mac OS–based computers, use the Apple Printer Utility and the
Chooser’s setup function, described in Appendix A.
m On Windows-based computers, use the Apple LaserWriter Utility for
Windows, described in Appendix A.
m On UNIX-based workstations, log in to the TCP/IP Printer Configuration
Utility using the UNIX telnet program.
Using telnet and the TCP/IP Printer Configuration Utility
You can use telnet, a TCP/IP terminal emulation program, to log in to the
printer’s Configuration Utility. Changing the printer configuration affects all
users of the printer. You can use the utility to
m print a configuration page
m show information about the TCP/IP interface
m turn PostScript banner pages on or off for TCP/IP print jobs
m change the printer’s IP address
m set the TCP/IP subnet mask
m identify the default gateway IP address
m enable or disable TCP/IP connection timeout checking
m change the password for this utility
m reset the printer’s TCP/IP interface
m restore all settings to the factory defaults
