Q: Does the TEW-P1U1P support Macintosh operating systems?

Q: What are the queue names of the ?TEW-P1U1P
A:
Q: Why can’t I see my printer status information?
A:
Q: Why is my printer, printing a lot of garbage characters?
A:
Yes, but you must assign the print server an IP address from a Windows based operating system
first. Once that is done you can use LPR or LPD printing for the Macs and you can manage the
print server by entering its IP address into a web browser. Also the printer must be a postscript
printer.
Note: For a Macintosh the printer must support post script.
The Port Name is L1 for the Parallel port and L2 for the USB port.
Print servers are IEEE1284 bi-directional compatible. This means that data can be sent and
received in both directions between the printer and the print server.
Toner status, paper level, etc., will not be communicated back to the PC. In order to get printer
status information, the proprietary printer driver has embedded code that needs to be passed on to
the print server, decoded, then interpreted by the print server. TRENDnet print servers do not
support embedded driver codes. TRENDnet print servers, whether in Gateways or Stand Alone,
are plain TCP/IP print servers.
Step1. Make sure that you have the latest print drivers for you printer.
Step 2. Launch the Bi-Admin Utility and Click on the Configure icon then on the Port tab.
Change the Printer Type to Low Speed and click OK.
