Look at the manual. You'll have to look for how to make the printer
print its configuration.

Use the "Add Printer Wizard", add a new printer and change its
connection to whichever way you want to communicate with the printer.

Hello Charles,

The 16/600 is a great network printer for Macs and Windows. I have one
on my network of Macs and PCs.

The 16/600 is capapble of TCP/IP printing You need to get the IP
address and then set up a new TCP/IP port. It is not too hard to do.

First challenge is to find out the address of your printer. Figure out
how to print a start up page, or just connect it to a mac via ethernet,
and let Apple Printer Utility interroagate the printer and you will
have the info you need.

Email me if there are questions.

Sorry to take so long to post. At the time the printer quit
working, I was on a deadline to get the output. I had left
the printer on for a long time. It was connected to the
Windows 2000 Pro machine with a parallel cable. I had
printed in the past but would not print when I needed it.
I turned the printer off for several hours and it started
printing again. I guess it just got too hot and/or locked up
internally. I printed out the two pages I needed real bad
and let it just sit for a while. I found the printing utility on
Apples' web site after the deadline, downloaded it and
used it to setup the printer "properly". I gave it IP address
192.168.1.200. But since I had already gotten the output
I needed, I never finished the net configuration to do the
printing through my lan. I just print through the parallel
port since it still works.

One thing I learned, if I ever need a lan printer in the future,
I will make sure it has a control panel and an lcd display
so I can control it without needing a computer. 4 lights and
no buttons, just won't cut it.

thanks to all,
charles......
