nected to Ethernet or Token-Ring. Some of the things you can do
through CrownAdmin 3 include the following:
n Configure network protocols on the printer interface daughter-
board.
n Configure printer parameters
n Define groups of printers with common characteristics so you can
easily make global configuration changes.
n Use SNMP (where available) for retrieving and setting up printer
information.
n Download printer system software, fonts, forms, etc.
n Control PostScript files through the PS Utilities dialog box.
n Format and print files.
n Check printer status.
n Configure settings on the printer.
n Use QMS Remote Console.
n Create and edit group-configuration templates.

Opening CrownAdmin 3
» Note:
In NetBEUI/NetBIOS environments, there is an autodiscovery
mode in which printers are polled, so you’ll notice a short delay when
opening CrownAdmin.
