By following the instructions detailed below, install your AXIS
PrintPoint 140 BJC with the AXIS NetPilot™ Installation Wizard,
supplied on the AXIS Utilities Diskette. Please note that AXIS
NetPilot™ software requires a Windows platform that uses
NetWare or NetBIOS/NetBEUI.

1. Load the AXIS NetPilot™ software by following the instructions
on the label of the AXIS Utilities diskette. After loading the
software, double-click on the AXIS NetPilot™ icon. AXIS
NetPilot™ then scans the network for all connected Axis
Network Print Servers.

2. AXIS Units previously installed using the AXIS NetPilot™
appear as ‘Network Print Servers’ and un-installed units are
featured as ‘New Axis Units’. Select your AXIS PrintPoint 140
BJC from the ‘New Axis Units’ sub-folder and then click on the
Install icon. The Installation Wizard guides you through the
basic installation.

Click the Help icon should you require assistance throughout any
stage of the operation.

To set up print queues:

1. Open the ‘Network Print Servers’ folder and select the Network
Print Server you wish to setup.

2. Choose ‘Network’ from the Toolbar or Setup menu.

3. A new ‘Network environments’ window will now be open. From

this window you may create new print queues, connect to
previously established queues, and/or select the mode of
operation (Print Server or Remote Printer) for each printer.

To set up the advanced operating parameters:

1. Open the ‘Network Print Servers’ folder and select the Network
Print Server you wish to setup.

2. Choose Properties from the Toolbar or Setup menu.

3. A set of ‘tabbed’ Property Pages will open which allow you to
refine the chosen mode of operation, e.g. password protection,
frame type selection and/or setting of the queue polling interval.

The NetWare Configuration is now complete and you can close the
AXIS NetPilot™.

To verify that the AXIS PrintPoint 140 BJC is functioning correctly,
we recommend that you print a document from within a Windows
application, e.g. Microsoft Word. Please ensure that your printer is
selected as the Active Printer.
