IBM OS/2 LAN Server and Warp Server
Networks
For IBM OS/2 LAN Server and Warp Server Networks, HP JetAdmin
software supports the Data Link Control (DLC) and TCP/IP
environments.
When using virtual memory, increasing server RAM may improve
performance. This is especially evident if the swapper.dat file is large.
Any performance improvement is dependent upon the number of
network printers and type of printer driver.
LocalTalk Configuration
The LocalTalk interface enables you to print directly from a
standalone Apple Macintosh computer or from a Macintosh computer
on a LocalTalk network. For specific information on configuring your
computer and printer to print through a LocalTalk interface, refer to
the printer’s getting started guide and the
HP JetDirect Print Server
Software Installation Guide
.
Macintosh DIN-8 Cable
To connect a Macintosh computer directly to this printer, use a
standard Macintosh DIN-8 printer cable. This cable cannot be used in
a network configuration.
Note For LocalTalk configuration, the DIN-8 printer cable must be plugged
into the printer port of your Macintosh computer.
LocalTalk Network Configuration
To connect the printer to a Macintosh computer on a LocalTalk
network, use the HP LocalTalk Cable Kit. You will need a kit for each
printer and an additional kit for each Macintosh computer on your
network.
