Printed Material Installation Guide (this document)
Overview
This User’s Guide includes installation instructions for the AXIS
OfficeBasic USB Wireless G print server in Windows and Mac OS X
environments. Installation on Mac OS 9.1 or older systems is
described in the User’s Manual.
The instructions in this guide are based on the settings found in a
new AXIS OfficeBasic USB Wireless G. To reset a previously
configured AXIS OfficeBasic USB Wireless G, see Print Server
Management with the Reset Button on page 24 for instructions.
See the AXIS OfficeBasic USB Wireless G User’s Manual for detailed
descriptions on this product. The User’s Manual is located on the
AXIS OfficeBasic USB Wireless G CD and on www.axis.com

Wireless Operating Modes
The AXIS OfficeBasic USB Wireless G print server can be used in
Infrastructure and Ad-Hoc network modes using 802.11b and
802.11g wireless protocols.
Infrastructure
In Infrastructure mode, computers communicate with the print
server by first going through an Access Point. The Access Point is a
hardware device that communicates with the print server and can
be connected to computers on a wired Local Area Network (LAN) or,
wirelessly, to computers that are equipped with a wireless card.
To set up the print server in an Infrastructure network, see Setup in
Infrastructure Mode, on page 9.
Ad-hoc (Peer to Peer)
Computers with a wireless card communicate directly with the print
server (i.e. no Access Point is used). To set up the print server in an
Ad-hoc network, see Setup in Diagnostic Mode, on page 13.

Setup in Infrastructure Mode
This procedure works for setting up a print server in infrastructure
mode when the Access Point is unencrypted. If the Access Point is
encrypted, go to Setup in Diagnostic Mode, on page 13.
Before You Start:
• Check the SSID used by the Access Point.
• Check your network settings, i.e. available IP addresses, netmask
and gateway.
• Ensure that the TCP/IP protocol is installed on your computer.
• Ensure that the print server’s DIP is switched to NOR.
1. Insert the AXIS OfficeBasic USB Wireless G CD into your
CD-drive.
2. Select Setup Wizard to install the wireless print server and
configure the connected printer.
The Wizard will automatically install these components in
ENGLISH
C:\Program Files\Axis Communications\AXIS OBW Wizard:
• AXIS OBW Wizard.exe
• AXIS OBW Network Printer Port. DLL (Wireless Print Monitor)
After installation, AXIS OBW Wizard will be available from Start |
Programs | Axis Communications.
AXIS OBW Wizard will start in the same language as your operating
system, see Technical Specifications, on page 124.

3. The Select A Print Server screen lists all the wireless print servers
that have been found, select the print server that you want to
configure and click Next.
If no print servers are found, check the following:
• No Access Point in your network - you are using an Ad-Hoc
network, go to Setup in Diagnostic Mode, on page 13.
• Access Point is encrypted and/or not broadcasting the SSID connect to the print server in Diagnostic mode, go to Setup in
Diagnostic Mode, on page 13.
• Print server has automatically connected to another Access Point have your wireless card associate with the other Access Point and
click Refresh, or change the Access Point that the print server has
connected to, go to Setup in Diagnostic Mode, on page 13.
4. In the Change Settings screen, select Yes to change the
settings e.g. IP address. Otherwise, select No to use the default
settings and go to Installing a printer, on page 18.
The default settings are:
• Infrastructure mode
• SSID = <ANY>
• Data transmit rate = Auto
• Data transmit mode = Auto
• Channel = 6
• Authentication Type = Open System
• Encryption = none
•DHCP enabled
10
5. On the Basic Wireless Settings screen, enter the SSID for the
Access Point and, if necessary, change the transmit speed and
mode. Click Next.
6. On the Wireless Security screen, select the authentication and
encryption (if any) used by the Access Point and click Next.
• Select the Authentication Type used in your wireless network:
- Open System
- Shared Key
- WPA-PSK
- WPA2-PSK
• Select the encryption used in your wireless network. The options will
depend on the authentication type used. Note that CCMP (Counter Mode
CBC MAC Protocol) is sometimes known as AES (Advanced Encryption Standard). See the User’s Manual for more information on the different encryption types.
• If using WEP encryption, enter the Key Format and WEP Key or if using
WPA or WPA2, enter the Pre-shared Key.
ENGLISH
11
7. On the TCP/IP Settings screen, specify a fixed IP address,
netmask and gateway for the print server (highly recommended)
or use a dynamic IP address. Click Next.
8. Check the settings in the Save Settings screen before they are
uploaded to the print server.
It is possible to verify the identity of the print server by comparing the public
key in the Save Settings screen with the test page.
If the settings in the print server do not match those in the Access Point,
communication with the print server may be lost. If this happens, reset the print
server and start over.
9. Continue by installing a printer, see Installing a printer, on page
18.

Troubleshooting
Connecting to Print Server
If you are unable to find the print server when running the Wizard,
print a test page and check that the print server has found an
Access Point, i.e. see if there is an ESSID printed on the test page.
Printing Test Page
If you experience problems when printing a test page, do the
following:
• Make sure that your printer is not host based. Host based print-
ers do not work with any print server models.
• Try another printer as your printer may not have the correct font
installed.
ENGLISH
25
Printing
Check the following if you experience problems when trying to
print:
• Check that the wireless network interface is properly configured
in the workstation/laptop trying to access the print server.
• All communicating clients must be in the same operating mode,
i.e. Ad-Hoc or Infrastructure mode.
• Check that the wireless security protocols are set according to
your wireless network settings.
• Check that the radio frequency channel setting is the same on all
communicating clients and that the channel is set according to
the requirements in your country.

Computern verbunden werden, die über eine entsprechende
Drahtlos-Karte verfügen.
Wie Sie den Druckerserver in einem Infrastructure-Netzwerk
einrichten, entnehmen Sie dem Abschnitt Einrichtung im
Infrastructure-Modus, auf Seite 31.
