Print the config pages by pressing the test button

Start, Run and type telnet in there, then click OK.
This brings up a telnet

why would I select ethernet? And, the "chooser" doesn't exist in OSX.

They don't have such for Mac but it's very easy.
After you experience using a dedicated print server
