factory default is that all hosts have access to the printer.

■

With a TCP/IP connection and a World Wide Web browser, you can use 
PhaserLink Printer Management Software.  See the next topic, “Controlling 
host access using PhaserLink Printer Management Software” for more 
information.

■

Send the appropriate PostScript file to the printer.  See “Controlling host 
access using a PostScript utility file” on page 77.
