MonarchNet Configuration Problems If you are having problems using the MonarchNet utility to configure the unit, check the following: 1. If using MonarchNet for TCP/IP, verify there is not a router between the workstation running MonarchNet and the print server. Since the print server does not have an IP address, TCP/IP communication can not be started across a router. Run MonarchNet on the same subnet as the print server. MonarchNet for NetWare does not have this limitation. 2. Verif
