the EtherTalk protocol from the Network Control Panel on the
Macintosh

Control Panel does not exist, you must use Apple's Network
Installer software to add these capabilities.
The appropriate PPD file supplied with your machine must first be
installed. Insert the CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive of your
computer. Select the Start Here OS 8.6-9.2 icon, select your
language and follow the on-screen instructions for Install Software.
