Using the
utility
When you start the utility, its adapter list appears. This list shows all adapters
that answer a broadcast. You can’t print to the adapters yet, because you have
not set them up to receive jobs. You will use the Network Printer Utility (and
PCONSOLE, if you prefer) to configure the adapters and monitor them.
Using the adapter list
The adapter list looks similar to this:
To work with the utility:
1 On the adapter list, point and click on the adapter that you want to
work with.
• To highlight a range of adapters, hold down the Shift key and click the
mouse once, at the top and bottom of the range of adapters you want to
use.
• To select individual adapters, hold down the Ctrl key, point to each
adapter that you want to choose and click the mouse once.
2 Then use the menu bar to work with the selected adapter.
Notice that
the list has six items on the menu bar: File, View, Setup, Printer Status,
Options, and Help.
For example, to set up an adapter, you first highlight the adapter, then select
Setup from the menu bar.
The utility has six pull-down menus, on the menu bar. Some of the functions
that you can do from the pull-down menus are available for only specific
adapters. The functions that aren’t available are grayed-out on the screen.
