Autodetect Printer
Type
The print server can automatically detect the type of printer you
are using if you enable the ’Autodetect Printer Type’-function.
The print server can then recognize Epson and Hewlett Packard
InkJet printers. Most Epson and Hewlett Packard InkJet printers
that have MacOS printer drivers for network printing are
supported. Without the Autodetect Printer Type function, the
AppleTalk printer type has to be specified manually in the print
server. For Epson InkJets it would be "EPSONLQ2" and for HP
InkJets it would be "DeskWriter". If the print server doesn't
recognize the connected printer the default setting "LaserWriter"
will be used as printer type. "LaserWriter" is the recommended
setting to be used with all PostScript printers.
To enable the ’Autodetect Printer Type’-function:
1. Log in to your print server’s web interface and choose: Admin |
Network Settings | Detailed View | Macintosh |
AutoDetectPrinterType | YES.
See the print server’s web interface Help pages for details.
LaserWriter 7.0 Printer
Driver
Follow the instructions below to choose a printer:
1. Select Chooser from the Apple menu.
2. Click the LaserWriter icon.
3. If your network has more than one zone, click on the zone you
want. If your network has no zones, this box does not appear.
4. Click the name of the printer you want. The default AXIS 5900
printer names are shown as: AXIS<nnnnnn>_<port>, where
<nnnnnn> is the last six digits of the AXIS 5900 serial number,
and <port> is LPT1 and LPT2. For example: AXIS100086_LPT1.
5. Click the Close box. This completes the configuration and closes
the Chooser.
Repeat this procedure for each Macintosh computer on the
network using the AXIS 5900.
