Product Overview
The Monarch Marking Systems MonarchNetEthernet
Printer Server enables Ethernet network users to connect
to a parallel printer using a high-speed, bi-directional
parallel port.
The Ethernet print server connects to a Monarch9840
printer (version 6.5 or greater).
MonarchNet consists of the following:
♦Operating Instructions for the Ethernet print server
(these instructions)
♦Ethernet Print Server
The print server may need to be configured before you
can use it. Software is available on Monarch’s Web site
(www.monarch.com)to configure the print server or you
can order part number TC9840ENCD for the MonarchNet
Utilities compact disc.
The MonarchNet print server provides multiprotocol
capabilities for users with Windows95/98/2000,
Windows NT, TCP/IP, and NovellNetWare.

information about printer configuration. A Technical
Reference Manual, which includes additional Ethernet
set-up and configuration information, is also available on
our Web site. You can order part number TC9800ENTR
for a printed copy of the Technical Reference Manual.
Also, see your Network Operating System manuals for
related information about network configuration and
printing operations.

Hardware Description
The illustration below displays the back view of the
Ethernet print server.
Parallel Output Port
The parallel output port of the Ethernet print server
connects directly to the Centronics connector on most
printers.
10BASE-T UTP, Unshielded Twisted-Pair Ethernet Cable
Twisted-pair systems use 10BASE-T hubs or
concentrators. Adding the Ethernet print server does not
interrupt network operation.
Status
Test
Introduction 1-3
Status Indicator
A bi-color Status indicator displays the general state of
the Ethernet print server. In normal operation, the Status
indicator flashes orange during power-up self test and
then changes to a solid green when it passes the self-
test.
♦Solid green indicates a connection has been made
with a 10Base-T hub.
♦Flashing green rapidly indicates the network
connection is faulty or does not exist.
♦Flashing green slowly indicates print job activity.
♦Solid orange for more than 30 seconds indicates the
print server has failed Power On Self Test.
♦Flashing alternately orange and green for longer than
two minutes indicates the print server is in firmware
download mode.
See Chapter 3, “Troubleshooting” for any problems you
may have.
Test
A test button, located on the side of the Ethernet print
server, is provided to allow detailed configuration
information to be printed.
♦Restore to Factory Defaults -If the test button is
pressed and held when the printer is turned on until
the Status indicator turns green, the Ethernet print
server configuration parameters are set to Factory
Defaults and a configuration sheet prints.

INSTALLING THE PRINT
SERVER
This chapter explains how to install the Ethernet print
server.
If you have not already done so,
record the model number, serial
number and address of your Ethernet
print server and save it for future
reference.
To use the Ethernet print server, upper DIP switch 8 on
the printer must be turned ON. This enables the bi-
directional communication.
Do not plug any cables into the
parallel port when using the Ethernet
port.
A printer with an Ethernet port cannot use the parallel
port. However, the serial port is still active.

Switches
2-2Installing the Print Server
To install the print server:
1. Turn off the printer by using the printer’s power
switch or removing the power cord.
2. Attach the Ethernet print server directly to the
Centronicsconnector on the printer. Secure the
Ethernet print server to the printer with the spring
clicks on the printer.
3. Attach the 10Base-T UTP cable to the receptacle on
the back of the Ethernet print server.
4. Turn on the printer by using the printer’s power switch
or attaching the power cord.
The status indicator blinks orange during self-test
and then changes to green when the self-test
completes successfully.
