METHOD
There are a variety of ways to configure and monitor the network printer.
This chapter explains how to use NetManager, HP JetAdmin, HP Web
JetAdmin, UNIX, or Sun Solaris.
See Chapter 4, “Using a Web Browser” to configure the network printer via
your Browser.
See Chapter 5, “Using the Paxar Sierra Sport Configurator” to configure the
network printer via Avalanche software.
HP JetAdmin Utility
This HP Windows-based utility (works transparently with JetAdmin) can be
downloaded from the HP Web site (www.hp.com).
Note: The print server does not appear in the list of configured servers
unless TCP/IP or IPX is running on the computer.
HP Web JetAdmin Utility
This HP utility for Windows NT Advanced Server and Windows 2000 can be
downloaded from the HP Web site (www.hp.com). Once it is installed, a web
browser on any computer that has access to the Windows NT/2000 server
may be used to access the print server.
Microsoft Windows Network Configuration
The print server includes the NetManager software for printing from Windows
computers over an 802.11b/g wireless link. This software creates a network
port on the Windows system, which acts like a normal parallel port. As a
result, it works transparently with any standard Windows printer driver and
application program. Since this software uses the industry-standard TCP/IP
protocol, it can be used with IP routers and other IP-based equipment.
