Introduction
The EPL-N2000 provides the network administrator with both
greater freedom and greater flexibility in allocating network
resources. Because the EPL-N2000 is equipped with an Ethernet
®
interface card that connects directly to the network’s physical
layer, users can configure and control print jobs directly from
their workstations rather than going through a print server. The
network administrator can monitor printer status and change
printer settings from the EPSON Status Monitor, which operates
on a Microsoft
®
Windows 95
®
or Windows NT
®
3.5x system.
Because the EPL-N2000 supports multiple protocols and
automatically detects the protocols on your network, you can
easily connect it to your existing network. The table below lists
the different ways in which the client workstation can be
connected to the printer.
