Digital Network Interface Card for LocalTalk DNIC-L'TALK

Configuration Guide

Order Number: EK-LN17A-CG

This document is a configuration guide for the Digital Network Interface Card (DNIC-L'TALK), designed to upgrade Digital laser printers for LocalTalk network printing. It provides instructions for installing the LocalTalk card, connecting it to a LocalTalk network or directly to a Macintosh using a DIN-8 cable, and configuring printer settings via the printer's control panel (including Port Enable and Port Timeout options). The guide also details the process for Macintosh users, covering how to install the PostScript printer driver and PPD files, select the LocalTalk network and printer through the Chooser, and rename the printer. A key prerequisite highlighted is the need for the printer to have the PostScript Option kit installed for the DNIC-L'TALK to function. The document concludes with extensive troubleshooting steps, addressing common issues related to printer status, card installation, network configuration (cabling, termination, network type, device limits), and printer driver setup, along with advice on obtaining technical assistance.
