Introduction Product Overview The external print servers enhance capability by letting you place your printers at convenient locations directly on the Ethernet network, and by increasing network printer performance and management. Please note that the print server does not support printing with host-based printers, e.g. CAPT, GDI, PPA. Network Management The print servers support the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), which remote printer management and a warning. A standard SNMP agent is permanent on these print servers. Any standard SNMP-based application can be used to access and manage these print servers. Network configuration The print servers provide an embedded web server that can be accessed via a proper web browser. We also subsidiary Windows-based PSAdmin utility which help administrator to setup print server environment.
