Checking the Status of a Printer Port:
Printer Status Icon
The numbered Printer Port icons let you check the name,
status, and printing details of each printer attached to the
Wireless PrintServer. A password may be required to access
this information. You may be able to configure some print-
ers’ settings within the Printer Status window.
The Wireless PrintServer only shows as many parallel port icons as it has ports.
For example, with this model, only two parallel port icons will show. Because
Wireless PrintServers do not support serial printing, the serial port icon will
always remain gray and inaccessible.

tings, highlight the Wireless PrintServer to be changed and
