Introduction

The D-Link DP-301P+ Print Server is a pocket size print server that connects to your Ethernet/Fast Ethernet network anywhere you wish to locate printer services. The DP-301P+ manages the flow of print files from workstations or file servers to connected printers, delivering print jobs to printers much faster than a file server or a PC acting as a print server.
The DP-301P+ includes easy-to-use software to install on most Windows-based networks. Protocol support for TCP/IP, NetBEUI, and AppleTalk are provided to ensure seamless connection to major networking operating systems.
The DP-301P+ has a built in Web-based management feature that allows users to easily configure and manage multiple print queues through TCP/IP. The DP-301P+ also supports Telnet as an alternative method to configure the unit.
The DP-301P+ improves network printing services in the following ways:
The DP-301P+ manages print file traffic. This provides workload relief to your file servers, and allows the file servers’ full capacity to be used for file access or other direct services to network users. On Peer-to­Peer networks, workstations can print directly to the print server without increasing the load of another workstation or server .
Because the DP-301P+ is very portable and inexpensive compared to a PC-based print server, and the print server connects to your file servers through the network, printers can be deployed to locations of maximum convenience to users.

The DP-301P+ offers extraordinary flexibility, operating with all major network operating systems and protocols:
TCP/IP
UNIX lpr/lpd (HP-UX, Sun OS, Solaris, SCO, UnixWare, IBM AIX) Windows NT/2000, Windows 95/98SE/Me, Windows XP
NetWare 5.x NDPS LPR Remote Printing
NetBEUI
Windows NT/2000/XP, Windows 95/98SE/Me, Windows for Workgroups, Microsoft LAN Manager , IBM LAN Server
AppleT alk
Mac OS EtherT alk
Windows-based setup and administration software, PS Admin, is supplied with the print server, making configuration and management quick and easy. The print server also supports configuration and management via the Telnet protocol for networks without Windows-compatible machines.
External Features
Port Connectors
The DP-301P+’s parallel port is located on its front panel. The port can be configured using the PS Admin program or the print server’s Telnet interface. (See the PS Admin User’s Guide, available on the CD that came with the DP-301P+, for information about configuring the print server’s ports.) The print server also supports web configuration permitting users to configure settings through the web browser. The default IP address is as follows:
Default IP address – 192.168.0.10 Subnet mask – 255.255.255.0
Note:
The PC’s IP address must be in the same subnet as the print server’s IP address for the two devices to communicate. (For example, if your print server’s IP address is
192.168.0.10, with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, then your computer’s IP address should be 192.168.0.x, where x is a value between 1-254, excluding 10.)

Ethernet Port - Network Cable Connector
The print server’s rear panel features an RJ-45 connector for connection to 10Base-T Ethernet cabling or 100Base-TX Fast Ethernet cabling (which should be CAT5 twisted-pair cable). The port supports the NWay protocol, allowing the print server to automatically detect or negotiate the transmission speed of the network. Use this port to connect to your network router.
Power - DC Power Connector
The DC power input connector is located on the print server’s rear panel .
LED Indicators
The back panel of the print server features three LED indicators:
ACT - Lights up to indicate activity on the network. LPT - Lights up to indicate printing activity . l - Lights up to indicate that the DP-301P+ is powered ON.

Setting up the DP-301P+

Installing the Print Server
WARNING: Configuration problems may result if the print server is powered
up without first establishing its network connection. Follow this procedure to avoid complications at the configuration stage.
Confirm proper operation of the printers to be connected to the DP-301P+.
1.
When you have confirmed proper operation of the printer, switch its power
2.
3.
Confirm that your network is operating normally .
Connect the DP-301P+ RJ-45 Connector to the network, using an Ethernet
4.
CA T5 cable.
5.
While the printer is powered OFF, install the DP-301P+ parallel port connector into the parallel port on the network printer.
Switch on the connected printer.6. Plug the AC power adapter’s DC output plug into the DC 5V power socket on
7.
the print server.
8.
Plug the power adapter into a power outlet. This will supply power to the print server, as it has no external power switch. The green Power LED on the Print Server’s front panel should illuminate steadily, and the Print Server’s Self-Test will proceed.
Power ON Self-Test
Every DP-301P+ has been factory-tested to operate properly.
Whenever the DP-301P+ is powered up, two testing procedures follow automatically. The first procedure is a programmed series of flashes intended to confirm proper operation of the LED indicators. The second procedure comprises programmed tests of the DP-301P+’s internal circuitry. If any fault is found during the circuitry tests, testing stops and a continuous pattern of flashes signals the nature of the fault.
8
Indicator Test
Immediately upon power-up, the (Power) and LPT indicators will illuminate steadily in green for several seconds. Then the LPT indicator will become dark
1
1
while the (Power) indicator remains steady . Irregularity of any indicator during
this test indicates that there is a problem with the indicators themselves.
Circuit Tests
The circuit tests immediately follow the indicator test. A normal (no fault) result is signaled by three flashes of the LPT indicator and the start of normal print server operation. If any error condition is found during the circuit tests, testing will halt with the LPT indicator continuously signaling the particular error according to the following table:
LPT LED Flash Pattern Error Type
Steady long flashes
Continuously on
One long, two short flashes One long, three short flashes One long, five short flashes
Firmware Reload Required DRAM Error
Timer INT error Flash Protected Flash Erase/Program error
One long, six short flashes One long, eight short flashes
One long, nine short flashes One long, fourteen short flashes
LAN Controller error Parallel Controller Error
LPT Error LAN PHY error
In the event of a Firmware Reload Required error at startup, proceed according to instructions given in the PS Admin User ’s Guide (“PS Admin Administration” section, under the heading “Upgrading the Print Server’s Internal Firmware”).
The PS Admin software includes a Print Test function for confirmation of print server connections and functions. This operational test can be performed after you have installed the PS Admin software and completed the PS Admin procedures for configuring the DP-301P+. See the instructions given in the PS Admin Users Guide (“Getting Started Setting up Your Print Server” section, under the heading “Testing your Print Server”).

Setting up AppleTalk Printing
in Mac OS 9
Note: Mac OS printing is supported for Postscript printers only!
The AppleTalk network protocol is used with computers using the Macintosh operating system. It can be used for network communications over standard Ethernet or Fast Ethernet using the EtherTalk transport, or over a proprietary LocalT alk transport.
Your print server can be used for network printing to PostScript printers. You can print from any Mac OS computer connected to your Ethernet network, either directly using an EtherT alk connection, or indirectly through a LocalT alk-to-EtherT alk router.
NOTE: The chooser name of a printer connected to one of the print server’s ports is the same as its port name. If you are using AppleTalk printing, you will need to make sure that every port name is unique among all of the network printers in your AppleTalk zone. The port names shown in this manual are examples only .
Setting up the print server for AppleTalk Printing
To set up your print server so that it can be used for AppleTalk printing:
Make sure the AppleTalk protocol is enabled in your Macintosh.
Change the IP address on one of the computers on your network to
192.168.0.x, where x is any number between 1 1-254, excluding 10. Type 192.168.0.10 into the address field of your web browser . 192.168.0.10 is
the default IP address of the DP-301P+.
Select the Network tab and scroll to the bottom to the AppleTalk protocol
section. If your AppleTalk network is divided into AppleTalk zones, you will have to
specify which zone the print server should be in. You should locate the print server in the same zone as most of the users who will be using it. If your network is not divided into zones, the AppleTalk Zone field should contain a single asterisk “*”.

Columbia, U.S. Possessions or Protectorates, U.S. Military Installations, addresses with an APO or FPO.
Limited Warranty: D-Link warrants that the hardware portion of the D-Link products described below will be free from material defects in workmanship and materials from the date of original retail purchase of the product, for the period set forth below applicable to the product type (“Warranty Period”), except as otherwise stated herein.
1-Year Limited Warranty for the Product(s) is defined as follows:
Hardware (excluding power supplies and fans) One (1) Year
Power Supplies and Fans One (1) Year
Spare parts and spare kits Ninety (90) days
D-Link’s sole obligation shall be to repair or replace the defective Hardware during the Warranty Period at no charge to the original owner or to refund at D-Link’s sole discretion. Such repair or replacement will be rendered by D-Link at an Authorized D-Link Service Office. The replacement Hardware need not be new or have an identical make, model or part. D-Link may in its sole discretion replace the defective Hardware (or any part thereof) with any reconditioned product that D-Link reasonably determines is substantially equivalent (or superior) in all material respects to the defective Hardware. Repaired or replacement Hardware will be warranted for the remainder of the original Warranty Period from the date of original retail purchase. If a material defect is incapable of correction, or if D-Link determines in its sole discretion that it is not practical to repair or replace the defective Hardware, the price paid by the original purchaser for the defective Hardware will be refunded by D-Link upon return to D-Link of the defective Hardware. All Hardware (or part thereof) that is replaced by D-Link, or for which the purchase price is refunded, shall become the property of D-Link upon replacement or refund.
Limited Software Warranty: D-Link warrants that the software portion of the product (“Software”) will substantially conform to D-Link’s then current functional specifications for the Software, as set forth in the applicable documentation, from the date of original retail purchase of the Software for a period of ninety (90) days (“Warranty Period”), provided that the Software is properly installed on approved hardware and operated as contemplated in its documentation. D-Link further warrants that, during the Warranty Period, the magnetic media on which D-Link delivers the Software will be free of physical defects. D-Link’s sole obligation shall be to replace the non-conforming Software (or defective media) with software that substantially conforms to D-Link’s functional specifications for the Software or to refund at D-Link’s sole discretion. Except as otherwise agreed by D-Link in writing, the replacement Software is provided only to the original licensee, and is subject to the terms and conditions of the license granted by D-Link for the Software. Software will be warranted for the remainder of the original Warranty Period from the date or original retail purchase. If a material non-conformance is incapable of correction, or if D-Link determines in its sole discretion that it is not practical to replace the non-conforming Software, the price paid by the original licensee for the non­conforming Software will be refunded by D-Link; provided that the non-conforming Software (and all copies thereof) is first returned to D-Link. The license granted respecting any Software for which a refund is given automatically terminates.
Non-Applicability of Warranty: The Limited Warranty provided hereunder for hardware and software of D-Link’s products will not be applied to and does not cover any refurbished product and any product purchased through the inventory clearance or liquidation sale or other sales in which D-Link, the sellers, or the liquidators expressly disclaim their warranty obligation pertaining to the product and in that case, the product is being sold “As-Is” without any warranty whatsoever including, without limitation, the Limited Warranty as described herein, notwithstanding anything stated herein to the contrary.
Submitting A Claim: The customer shall return the product to the original purchase point based on its return policy. In case the return policy period has expired and the product is within warranty, the customer shall submit a claim to D-Link as outlined below:
59
The customer must submit with the product as part of the claim a written description of the Hardware defect or Software nonconformance in sufficient detail to allow D-Link to confirm the same.
The original product owner must obtain a Return Material Authorization (“RMA”) number from the Authorized D-Link Service Office and, if requested, provide written proof of purchase of the product (such as a copy of the dated purchase invoice for the product) before the warranty service is provided.
After an RMA number is issued, the defective product must be packaged securely in the original or other suitable shipping package to ensure that it will not be damaged in transit, and the RMA number must be prominently marked on the outside of the package. Do not include any manuals or accessories in the shipping package. D-Link will only replace the defective portion of the Product and will not ship back any accessories.
The customer is responsible for all in-bound shipping charges to D-Link. No Cash on Delivery (“COD”) is allowed. Products sent COD will either be rejected by D-Link or become the property of D-Link. Products shall be fully insured by the customer. D-Link will not be held responsible for any packages that are lost in transit to D-Link. The repaired or replaced packages will be shipped to the customer via UPS Ground or any common carrier selected by D-Link, with shipping charges prepaid. Expedited shipping is available if shipping charges are prepaid by the customer and upon request.
