NetGear Print Server Manual
AppleTalk
The NETGEAR Print Server supports AppleTalk (EtherTalk), PAP, ATP, NBP, ZIP and DDP
protocols, enabling Apple computers on the network to view and use the Print Server as a regular
AppleTalk printer.
The NETGEAR Print Server is enabled for AppleTalk printing by default. Further AppleTalk
configuration may be configured through a web browser if the print server is configured for IP access.
If the Print Server is not configured for IP access, configuration of the Printer Server for AppleTalk
may be performed through the Print Server Admin program on Windows for Apple machines. Figure
3-4 shows the AppleTalk configuration screen and the following table describes it fields.
