There are a variety of ways to configure and monitor the network printer. This
chapter explains how to use NetManager, HP JetAdmin, HP Web JetAdmin, UNIX, or Sun
Solaris.
See Chapter 4, “Using a Web Browser” to configure the network printer via your Browser.
See Chapter 5, “Using the Sierra Sport Configurator” to configure the network printer via
Avalanche software.

The print server includes the NetManager software for printing from Windows computers over an
802.11b/g wireless link. This software creates a network port on the Windows system, which
acts like a normal parallel port. As a result, it works transparently with any standard Windows
printer driver and application program. Since this software uses the industry-standard TCP/IP
protocol, it can be used with IP routers and other IP-based equipment.

The print server is also compatible with other methods of printing from Windows. These include
the Standard TCP/IP port option in Windows 2000/XP, and the LPR port option in Windows NT
that are built into the operating system.

The print server appears to the network as a UNIX host computer with a unique IP address
running the line printer daemon (LPD) protocol. As a result, any host computer that supports
the Berkeley remote-lpr command can spool jobs to the print server without the need for any
special software on the host computer.
Note: Before configuring a UNIX print queue, the print server must have a valid IP address.
