Removing Excess Printers from the Chooser
When you first install an M208 in an AppleTalk environment, you will notice that four
printers show up in your Chooser; one printer for each destination on the M208 that
has AppleTalk services enabled.
If you want to limit the number of printers showing up in the Chooser, you need to dis-
able the AppleTalk service from the related destination’s list of services. To do this,
start an npsh session with the unit and follow the steps below:
1 Display a listing of the M208’s characteristics across all protocols.
list pserver
2 Look at the Apple Pap section of the listing to learn the destination name that
corresponds with the unnecessary printer’s papname.
3 For each printer that you do not want to appear in the Chooser, disable the Apple-
Talk service from the corresponding destination’s list of services. Type the fol-
lowing command:
set dest
destname
service -appletalk
You can also turn off any other services that are not required by this destination
bin the same way.
4 Repeat the previous step until you have removed the AppleTalk service from each
of destinations that correspond to the papname of the unnecessary printers.
5 Save the changes to EEPROM.
