Introduction
The C82331* EPSON Type B Ethernet Interface Card is a
combination of hardware and software that lets you connect an
EPSON printer equipped with an optional Type B interface slot
directly to your network. Just install the Ethernet Card into your
printer’s optional interface slot (see your printer guide or contact
your EPSON dealer for applicable models), and connect it
anywhere on your network.
Use the EPSON Ethernet Card software to quickly and easily set
up the interface as either a print server or remote printer on a
Novell NetWare network, or as an Ethertalk (Apple) network
printer. Utility software is not needed for installation on a
Windows NT
®
(with DLC Transport protocol) or UNIX@ network.
The Ethernet Card can be directly connected to a l0BASE or
I0BASE-T network. It automatically selects the connected network
when
powered on. In addition, it supports IEEE 802.3, IEEE 802.2,
and Ethertalk Phase II network protocols.
Supported Network Protocols and Features
The Ethernet Card supports the following network protocols:

D Provides the same
functions
as NetWare’s PSERVER program
