1-4 MonarchNet2 Operating Instructions
Setting Up the Print Server
For MonarchNet2 to operate, make sure the print server is set to use the
printer’s internal parallel port and use bi-directional communications.
If this is not already set for you:
1. From the printer’s Main Menu, select Setup, Port Settings, Parallel
Comm., Port, and press or until you see Internal. Press
Enter/Pause to save the setting.
2. Then, press to display Mode. Press Enter/Pause. Press or
until you see IEEE1284. Press Enter/Pause to save the setting.
3. Press Escape/Clear until you see the Main Menu.
Note: MonarchNet2 uses the printer’s internal parallel port.
You can switch between MonarchNet2 and using the parallel port, but
you must set the Port to External and the Mode to Compatible. Then,
turn off the printer and turn it back on to detect the cable. MonarchNet2
is not available until you disconnect the parallel cable and change the
Port to Internal and Mode to IEEE1284.
The serial and USB port are still active. However, allow a two-second
delay when switching from one port (serial, Ethernet, or USB) to another.
