Setting Parameters In AppleTalk, you can change a limited number of the parameters of 
the AXIS 5600. You can:
• enable and disable binary data transfers for your printing
• select the type of binary transfer protocol to use
• specify the AppleTalk printer type
• set the IP address
However, by assigning an IP address to your AXIS 5600, you have 
access to all of print server’s parameters via any standard Web browser 
or via FTP. Refer to Section 9 Management & Configuration, on page 
98 for more information.
