The TransEagle

®

 Network software package works hand-in-hand with the Eagle 

Series Printer to provide a robust remote print control environment.  It provides remote 
print control to up to five Eagle printers using a 10 Base T, 10Mb/sec connection 
networking model.  The network connectivity model employed with TransEagle

®

 is 

comprised of TCP/IP and FTP client/server network “channels”.  Connectivity is 
provided via a single network cable connection.   
 
TransEagle

®

 can be installed on your PC from the CD that comes with your system.  It 

is designed to perform best with a Pentium 90Mhz processor or better running 
Windows 95/98/NT4/2000.  You must also have a 10 base T Network Interface Card 
(Ethernet Card) installed on your PC.  (Note: the Ethernet connection on the Eagle is 
now standard.  Some older printers may not have the Ethernet option installed and 
would need to be upgraded before you could connect your Eagle to your PC using the 
TransEagle

®

 software). 

 
This section is current for version 3.10 of TransEagle

®

. 

 

 
Before running TransEagle

®

 the first time, make sure the following configurations are 

in place.  
 

 
If a direct connection is desired between the host system and a single Eagle 
printer the use of a crossover 10Mb/sec network cable complete with RJ-45 
connectors is required to effect the connection.  Plug one end of the crossover 
cable into the Eagle printer and the other end of the cable into the host system 
Network Interface Card.   
 
If multiple Eagle printers are to be connected then a network hub or other 
routing device must be utilized.  Please refer to the topology and connection 
scheme provided by the hub manufacturer for host and Eagle hardware 
connectivity.  Typically one would attach  straight network cables between the 
hub and or router directly to each Eagle printer.  The host system would then 
attach to the hub or to another concentrator device that provides a path to the 
Eagle hub and or individual systems etc.
