system support includes Apple, Unix, and Microsoft Windows.
•Easy Installation and Setup. Installation can be
accomplished in minutes. For initial configuration, a number
of utility programs are supplied to simplify setup. For
Windows 95/98/NT/ME/2000/XP users, the supplied Wizard
allows quick and easy setup.
•Web-based Interface. The Web-based interface provides an
easy method of configuration in TCP/IP networks.

where space is limited.
•Remote Management Tools. A variety of software tools are

you can also use this program to manage your Print Server.
