Notes regarding printer names

• If you have more than one printer in the same zone and you choose a name for one printer that is already assigned to another, the second printer registers itself on the network with the number 1 appended to the name. For example, if you attempt to assign a printer the name TekPhaser and another printer in the zone already has the same name, the printer you are naming appears on the network as TekPhaser-1.

• The added number is recalculated each time the printer is turned on. If you have more than one printer with the same name on the network, the printers' names on the network depend on the order in which the printers are turned on. To avoid this confusion, it is recommended that you assign each printer on the network a unique name.

• The added number appears in the Chooser, on the printer's front panel, and on the startup page. On the Configuration Page, the name, without the characters @ : = *, and with the added number, appears in the EtherTalk, LocalTalk, and TokenTalk areas. The Printer Name under General Information is the name as it was set, not as it appear sin the Chooser.
