PROTOCOLS
The protocols that must be installed to run EPSON Status
Monitor 2 vary depending on your operating system and
printer type. The following table divides printers into two
categories: LPR printers, which use TCP/IP (generally in a
Windows NT network environment); and NetWare printers,
which use Novell’s IPX/SPX protocol in a NetWare
environment. Use this table to determine what protocols you
need to install according to your operating system and printer
type, then see the corresponding section for your operating
system.

Note:
Cl
To set up the Ethernet card (C82357*) for use with TCP/IP, see
the documentation that came with the card. To set up the card for
use with NetWare, see your NetWare documentation.
0
Use NetWare in the bindery emulation mode.
0
If you configure more than one interface card for one queue, the
Status Monitor cannot monitor the printer that is assigned to
that queue.
For an explanation of the LPR printer protocols, see the
following section. NetWare printer protocols are already
installed in your NetWare network, so users with NetWare
printers can skip to “Installing the EPSON Status Monitor 2” on
page 1-8. For an explanation of NetWare printer protocols, see
your NetWare documentation.
LPR printer protocols
LPR printers use LPR over TCP/IP as their communication
protocol suite, and both protocols must be installed to use the
Status Monitor to monitor a LPR printer.
Win 95:
Windows 95 does not come with LPR, so in addition to installing
TCP/IP, as described below, you need to install the EPSON TCP/IP
printer protocol. The Status Monitor installer program automatically
prompts you when to install EPSON TCP/IP, see “Installing
EPSON Status Monitor 2” on
page
1-8
for
instructions.
Installing
TCP/IP
1.
Click
Start,
point to
Settings,
and click
Control Panel.
2.
Double-click the
Network
icon.
