Introduction

About Your Printer

Your printer has a built-in Ethernet interface. This manual contains information about the Internal Print Server in your printer and the configuration software, EpsonNet WinAssist/MacAssist/WebAssist, that configures it for network printing. For information about the printer, see your Reference Guide.

The Internal Print Server can connect anywhere on your network using 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX. The Internal Print Server automatically selects the correct standard when it connects to a network. In addition, it supports and automatically selects IEEE 802.2, IEEE 802.3, Ethernet II, and Ethernet SNAP network protocols.

Because the Internal Print Server supports multiple protocols and automatically detects protocols on your network, you can print from Microsoft^® Windows^®, Apple^® Macintosh^®, UNIX^®, and IBM^® OS/2 applications.

Use EpsonNet WinAssist or MacAssist, the configuration utilities provided with your printer, to quickly and easily configure the Internal Print Server to use the following protocols: IPX/SPX™, TCP/IP, AppleTalk^®, and NetBEUI.

Note:

The EpsonNet WinAssist/MacAssist utility configures the Internal Print Server to work only with protocols that exist on your network. This does not imply that you can use all of the above mentioned protocols in your network or operating system. The protocols that the Internal Print Server can use may vary depending on the operating systems used and network configuration.
