Can Appletalk be active on two network ports for printing?

Here's the core of my question: Can I keep Appletalk active on my Airport network port (in order to print to a wireless print server on an HP Laserjet 2100M) and simultaneously keep it active on my Ethernet port (in order to print to a Brother HL 2700CN networked through my router)?
Nothing I have read gives me to believe I can have Appletalk active on more than one network port. If that is the case, my second question would be:
I there some other way to print to either printer on the network without having to turn off Appletalk manually on the ports not being used?
Here's the configuration I'm facing
G4 Quicksilver 10.3.9
HP Laserjet 2100M with wireless Belkin DP-311P print server
Brother HL-2700CN wired to Belkin Wireless-G router
I would appreciate any help on this, even if it's the simple response, "No, you can't print to both without manually de/activating Appletalk."

for file sharing between computers running 10.4.x and 10.3.x.
actually, not for that either. 10.4 has dropped support for AppleTalk-only File Sharing to make way for Intel Macs and their protocols. 10.4 does still support AppleTalk printing.
AppleTalk would be required to print to older Apple LaserWriters that do not support LPD/LPR printing. In all but two cases, the printers have no Ethernet port, so a Bridge device or software would be required:
Personal LaserWriter NTR
Personal LaserWriter 320
LaserWriter Select 310
LaserWriter Select 360
LaserWriter 4/600 PS
LaserWriter IIf
LaserWriter IIg (Ethernet)
LaserWriter Pro 600
LaserWriter Pro 630 (Ethernet)
Some third-party wireless Access points do not pass AppleTalk packets at all, and cannot be used to print to that class of older LaserWriters.
In 10.3.9 and previous, AppleTalk may still be used for File Sharing with older Macs.

  • Hyper-V 2012 R2 best configuration with Two network ports

    Hi Team,
    I have to design Six Windows 2012 R2 Hyper-v Cluster . Each Host is carrying Two network Ports of 1 GBPS.
    10 to 12 Vlan will be configured across virtual machine on all six host.
    please let me know how best i can utilize two network port to achive redundancy and speed and network isolation.
    can i team two network ports into single team and than single virtual switch will carry for MGMT,Heartbeat and 10-12 VLAn traffic. is there any downside of it since i am merging all traffics on single tea.
    Thanks in advance

  • How can I make OSX index a network share for spotlight?

    How can I make OSX index a network share for spotlight?
    I am using a QNAP NAS with SMB network shares, which I mount with OS X Mavericks. They are not searchable, as far as I know because of the indexing of network share is by default not activated.
    To force the OS to index them I activated this via mdutils. But this is no solutions. This makes spotlight to index the share once. But I want spotlight to index it always and keep it up to date. I have a huge amount of documents & fotographs, which is very difficult to manage without being searchable.
    Unfortunately the only solution I found in the www was the mdutils-way, which seems not to work, maybe only works not for me.
    I would appreciate any assistance,
    Thank you,
    Stefan

    My thanks to everyone who has contributed to solving this problem here.
    It appears that there still is NOT a good, reliable solution.  Please correct me if I'm wrong.
    I did find this on http://jonathansblog.co.uk/how-to-enable-spotlight-indexing-on-a-network-drive:
    ===================================
    To enable spotlight indexing on a network drive:
    # mdutil /Volumes/name -i on
    To disable the indexing of a connected network drive:
    # mdutil /Volumes/name -i off
    To check the status of indexing on a connected network drive:
    # mdutil /Volumes/name -s
    ===================================
    And, I found this on the Synology NAS forums:
    cd /Volumes
    mdutil shareName -i on
    mdimport -Vp ./shareName
    where shareName = name of your share
    I have used the mdutil /Volumes/name -i on, and it seems to work.
    But, if I understand it correctly, it is a one-time indexing -- the index is NOT keep up-to-date with changes.
    So, how can we keep the index up-to-date?
    My thought was to schedule a Terminal file to execute each night with the mdutil code.
    Would this work?  If so, how would you setup a scheduled run?
    Would it have to be done on each Mac that accesses the Share?

  • How can I asociate a DataSource to a Port for my Video Capture Card???

    Hi!
    First of all, I sorry for my bad english.
    I'm trying to manage ports of my Video Capture Card.It's 4 ports. I believe I can manage it cause running this code I found in a web, I can see a panel called Video Source that contain all my capture devices (the capturer card too) and the four ports. Ports have been asociate like SVIDEO, TVTUNNER, COMPOSITE, COMPOSITE2. I'm trying use PortControl, but I don't ontain nothing. I'm learning java for around only three weeks, I don't know very much.
    My question: How can I asociate a DataSource to a Port for my Video Capture Card and so manage 4 streamings data . Should I work Port Control over a medialocator, a datastream, a player...?
    I'm looking forward your answers. I'm very sad cause this problem.

  • Can I be connected to two networks at the same time?

    Hi there
    I have an imac desktop with 10.5.8 running. I have a wireless network with my timecapsule and a printer connected to it. We have two mac computers in the house
    that print wirelessly via this network. I also have the internet coming in via a wireless modem/wifi which both computers use to go online. The trouble is everytime I want to print from either computer I have to change back and forth from the internet/network to the timecapsule/printer network. This is really fumbly and I wind up having to restart all the time because the printer gets locked up. It's just a big hassle. Is there any way I can be on both of these networks at the same time or is there some other way I can configure this?
    Thanks!

    Is there any way I can be on both of these networks at the same time or is there some other way I can configure this?
    Yes, you can reconfigure the Time Capsule (TC) to "Join a wireless network." In this case the wireless network would be the one created by the other wireless Internet router. In this configuration, the TC can still share its internal (and external) hard drive and a printer attached to the USB port. However, note that this would disable the TC as a router and an Ethernet switch so basically it will perform as a wireless client.

  • Specify which network port for browser to use

    I have a Mac Pro which obviously has two network jacks. I have the first, en0, connected to our LAN, and the second, en1, connected to a DSL connection. 99% of the time I only need to use the LAN connection, but that other 1% of the time I need to use the DSL to check for connectivity, or see how visitors outside our firewall view our services.
    I was wondering if anyone found a way to get a web browser, or other software, to use a specific connection rather than the highest priority connection?
    I know I can go into System Preferences and change the service order, and that works, but it also interrupts some of my other services I'm using while the network switches (iChat is a great example of this, which while minor is fairly annoying).
    My current solution is to install a linux VM in VMware Fusion and set Fusion to use en1 for that VM. Fusion is so far the only software that I regularly use that has a preference for this.
    Anyone figure this out or have any ideas? Any of the mainstream browsers would be acceptible (Safari, Firefox, Chrome, even Opera).

    That's called multi-homing IIRC, and it's generally very poorly supported out of your big server boxes. Your current solution is probably the best you're going to find short of just disconnecting one network interface when you want to use the other. The way VMWare does it is likely a rather ugly little hack that wouldn't be applicable to something like a web browser.
    Now, if you wanted to install a copy of Mac OS X Server... Maybe...

  • PSE 8 - Can I reposition an image on a page for printing?

    I am learning how to print photos using PSE 8 on a Mac running 10.6.4. In PSE 2, when printing I was able to slide a photo around on a page and reposition it for printing. (I could then print the photo on top of the page and then reinsert the paper into the printer and print on the bottom half too.) Is there a way to move a photo around on a page for printing in PSE 8 on a Mac? In PSE 8 Help, under Printing and Sharing Photos > Print Photos > Reposition an Image, it says you can: Choose File > Print and then use "the panning operation" to reposition the image, but I don't know what the "panning operation" is. All I see is an immovable box with the photo inside it. I can move the photo around in the box, but the box does not move with it, so no matter what, the photo (or a part of it) is going to print in the middle of the page it seems. Thank you for any help you can give me.   

    Try resizing the image before you go into the print dialog.  Then, once you are in the print dialog, uncheck Center Image and you should be able to move it anywhere on the sheet.

  • Can't End Active Calll on FXO port

    When I first checked the ports they had a VPM_State of FXOLS_REMOTE_RELEASE. I couldn't get any calls to traverse those ports. I did a shut/no shut on those ports and now I have a VPM_State of FXOLS_ONHOOK, but it shows a Codec of g711ulaw and a VTSP_State of S_Connect, although there should be a call on that port. Weird, huh?
    Next I check show call active voice brief and it shows a call leg that has a duration of over 3 days on that port. Why do I still have a call on that port if I do a shut/no shut? I can get the port to answer an incomming call, but it doesn't work. Right now I have that port busyout forced.
    Anyone have any idea on how to clear the call short of rebooting the router? I'm going to end up doing that tonight anyway, but I want to get this working for the rest of the day. It's actually happening on 3 ports spread across 2 cards. So their 6 phone lines are down to 3 phone lines right now.
    I tried to 'clear call voice causecode 32 id 132A' but the call leg still remains. Here is some of the output:
    wwfhc-taylor-2821#sh voice call sum

  • Can I fix the mountd RPC network port?

    Like many organisations we run internal firewalls.  This creates a problem when attempting to automount using the -hosts indirect map under /net because although we can open ports 2049 and 111 we have no idea what port the portmapper/rpc will dish out to mountd in advance.  Therefore we get the following type of exchange:
         loghost -> pandora      TCP D=34821 S=32877 Rst Seq=2202926385 Len=0 Win=49640
         loghost -> pandora      PORTMAP C GETPORT prog=100005 (MOUNT) vers=1 proto=TCP
         pandora -> loghost      PORTMAP R GETPORT port=34821
         loghost -> pandora      TCP D=34821 S=32878 Syn Seq=2222760873 Len=0 Win=49640 Options=<mss 1460,nop,wscale 0,nop,nop,sackOK>
         loghost -> pandora      TCP D=34821 S=32878 Syn Seq=2222760873 Len=0 Win=49640 Options=<mss 1460,nop,wscale 0,nop,nop,sackOK>
         loghost -> pandora      TCP D=34821 S=32878 Syn Seq=2222760873 Len=0 Win=49640 Options=<mss 1460,nop,wscale 0,nop,nop,sackOK>
    What we see here is the client asking the portmapper for the port number for MOUNT (prog 10005) and the GETPORT request returning 34821.  The client dutifully attempts to connect on the given port, but of course gets stamped on by the firewall.  We see repeated attempts to open the TCP connection, but no reply.
    What I need to know, categorically, is this;  Can I force the mountd program to use a fixed port in Solaris 10 update 10 ???  
    I've searched extensively in the usual places, I've read through the Oracle documentation and the closest I've found is this: 
    Mounting File Systems - System Administration Guide: Network Services
    Which doesn't talk about the automounter.
    This is possible in Linux:
    https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Storage_Administration_Guide/s2-nfs-nfs-firewall-config.html
    But it doesn't seem possible in Solaris.
    Anyone got any ideas or able to confirm that this is indeed, not possible?   If it isn't possible then my only option is to open the firewall for all ports between the hosts in question.  That will require some lengthy discussions with our network people.
    Thanks in advance,
    Paul.

    Reset the Firewire bus
    If your Firewire or USB isn't recognizing any device.  A solution which has worked for some whose hard drive became invisible in 10.4 was simply to follow these four steps to reset the Firewire/USB bus:
    1. Shut the machine down.
    2. UNPLUG the power lead to the computer and any firewire/USB drive or devices.
    3. leave it for 10 minutes.
    4. Connect back up and reboot.

  • Airport Express ethernet port for printing?

    I've recently purchased an Extreme (802.11n) for my wireless internet service which is working just fine on its own. In the other room I've set up my older Airport Express for only networking my printers. I don't want to hook up the printer to the ethernet ports on the Extreme as it is near my TV and entertainment center. I understand I cannot use a USB hub to connect two printers to the Express, but is it possible to use the Ethernet port on the Express for my Lexmark E240 or any other ethernet ready laser printer?
    Thanks

    Hello Jeff Crowell...Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    I understand I cannot use a USB hub to connect two printers to the Express, but is it possible to use the Ethernet port on the Express for my Lexmark E240 or any other ethernet ready laser printer?
    To activate the Ethernet port on the AirPort Express Base Station (AX), you need to configure it as a Remote Base Station in a Wireless Distribution System (WDS)...
    Wireless Distribution System (WDS) - Remote Base Station Setup
    (Note: To facilitate setting up the Base Station(s), place them in near proximity of each other during the set up phase.)
    Either connect to the AX's wireless network or temporarily connect directly, using an Ethernet cable, to the Ethernet port of the AX, and then using the AirPort Utility (in Manual Mode) to make the following settings:
    AirPort - Wireless tab
    - Wireless Mode: Participate in a WDS network
    - Network Name: <existing AirPort Network Name>
    - Radio Mode: 802.11b/g compatible
    - Channel: 1
    - Wireless Security: None
    AirPort - WDS tab
    - WDS Mode: WDS remote
    - Allow wireless clients (enabled)
    - WDS Main: <MAC address of the Main Base Station>
    Internet - Internet Connection tab
    - Connect Using: AirPort (WDS)
    - Configure IPv4: Using DHCP
    - Ethernet WAN Port: Automatic (Default)
    - Connection Sharing: Off (Bridge Mode)

  • Can I use a LiveType LiveFonts font (Cool) for print?

    Hi,
    I made a short video in FCP 6 and used LiveType for some moving fonts in the video. I am in the process of making a book with the same subject matter and am stumped. My illustrator wants to use one of the same fonts that I used in LiveType. I do not know if this is even possible. I did several searches online about this but the closest I got was seeing how I could make a word in LiveType and then export it so that I could add it to an image in Photoshop.
    My illustrator does not have FCP and therefore LiveType. I would be happy to pay for the font, but where would I do this? Specifically the font is a LiveFonts Pro > Cool in LiveType.
    Does anyone know how I can use this?
    Thanks in advance.

    LiveFonts are actually short movies, not vector based type like the regular fonts you would use in a word processing document.
    You might try making a large custom canvas size, typing the required letters individually as big as they can go without breaking up or pixellating, then exporting still images which you can assemble into words in a graphics program such as Photoshop. Consider also that print requires much higher resolution than video can provide, so even though your letters appear huge in LiveType, they will still be quite small in a 300 dpi print document.
