6. Choose Save Configuration from the Configuration menu, or press the Save Configuration button on the toolbar. This will store the new settings into the print server and restart it.
Testing Your Print Server
NOTE:
Once you have set all of the necessary parameters, and have finished connecting your printer(s) to the print server, you should test each of the printer ports using the Print Test function.
For each port you wish to test,
1. Select the print server in the PS Admin main window’s server name display (or extended server display).
2. Choose Print Test... in the Tools menu. PS Admin will prompt you for which port you wish to test.
3. Choose a port and click OK. The print server should print out a “Print Server Test Page.”
4. Repeat this procedure for each printer port with an attached printer.
The Print Test function may not work with PostScript printers that do not accept plain text files.
