Appendix F. EtherTalk environment EtherTalk is AppleTalk used in an Ethernet network. This protocol is widely used in Macintosh network environments. Microsoft Windows system also supports this protocol. Like TCP/IP, EtherTalk also provides packet transmission and routing functionality. The network printer card works on EtherTalk networks, if the host printer supports PostScript. The description in this chapter applies to network printing from a Macintosh computer. EtherTalk printing Printing in an EtherTalk network is possible with several different hardware and software configurations. When you issue a command to print a document, the application begins a series of EtherTalk calls attempting to establish a connection to the printer. The calls first initiate the NBP (Name Binding Protocol) name-lookup process to find the currently selected printer and its EtherTalk address. Then the Printer Access Protocol (PAP) is used to open a connection with the printer. Once the connection has been established, the workstation and printer interact over a PAP connection. PAP uses lower-level protocols, such as ATP and DDP, to provide a data-stream service for sending print data to the printer.

Appendix F. EtherTalk environment
EtherTalk is AppleTalk used in an Ethernet network. This protocol is widely
used in Macintosh network environments. Microsoft Windows system also
supports this protocol. Like TCP/IP, EtherTalk also provides packet
transmission and routing functionality.
The network printer card works on EtherTalk networks, if the host printer
supports PostScript. The description in this chapter applies to network
printing from a Macintosh computer.
EtherTalk printing
Printing in an EtherTalk network is possible with several different hardware
and software configurations. When you issue a command to print a
document, the application begins a series of EtherTalk calls attempting to
establish a connection to the printer. The calls first initiate the NBP (Name
Binding Protocol) name-lookup process to find the currently selected printer
and its EtherTalk address. Then the Printer Access Protocol (PAP) is used to
open a connection with the printer.
Once the connection has been established, the workstation and printer
interact over a PAP connection. PAP uses lower-level protocols, such as ATP
and DDP, to provide a data-stream service for sending print data to the
printer.
Configuring EtherTalk
