1. Introduction
1. Introduction
You can use the VGA Printer device to print any VGA or DVI-A
display to any compatible printer with the push of a button or the
click of a link on a web interface. The VGA Printer device can
easily and cost-effectively capture images displayed on computer
screens, or generated by medical equipment, microscopes and
other specialized imaging products that have VGA or DVI-A
output. While these devices may support printing, none is easier
to set up or more effective than the VGA Printer device.
No special hardware is required just the VGA (or DVI-A) source
and a printer that supports USB 1.1 or 2.0. You can also print to
most network printers. Capturing and printing VGA or DVI-A
images requires the following components:
• A VGA or DVI-A video source to capture images from.
• An Epiphan VGA Printer device that captures images from the
video source and sends them to a printer.
• One or more printers to print captured images.
The VGA Printer device combines an Epiphan Frame Grabber
and a computer in a small appliance. The Frame Grabber captures
images. The computer records images captured by the Frame
Grabber and can send captured images to one or more configured
printers. The printers can be connected directly to the VGA
Printer device with a USB cable or they can be network printers
connected to the same network as the VGA printer.
Note: The VGA Printer Frame Grabber is equivalent to a
VGA2USB or VGA2USB Pro that has been optimized for the VGA
Printer device.
The computer also provides the VGA Printer network setup and
printer configuration settings, and the VGA Printer .Web admin
interface. You use the VGA Printer Web admin interface to
configure the VGA Printer device and to view and print captured
images.

Configuring and operating the VGA Printer device from the Web
admin interface is simple. You can connect to the Web admin
interface with any web browser and configure settings such as the
VGA Printer network configuration, printer settings, and image
capture optimization.
The VGA Printer device can also get network settings from a
DHCP server if there is a DHCP server on the network.
Adding Printers
In most cases, adding a printer to the VGA Printer device is quick
and easy, especially if the VGA Printer device can automatically
find your printer.
A wide range of printer options, print job settings, and other
functions are available if you require them. But in most cases once
you have used the VGA Printer device to automatically find and
configure a printer you do not have to spend much time working
with the printer configuration.
While there are a lot of settings and options, in most cases you do
not need to use them. However, they are available for advanced
users or if you have special requirements.

1. Introduction Printing Captured Images
The VGA Printer device is compatible with most printers. If you
connect a printer to a VGA Printer USB port or if a network
printer is connected to the same network, the VGA Printer device
can usually find the printer and after a few simple steps you can
be printing captured images to it.
Figure 2: Finding available printers
You can easily add more than one printer to the VGA Printer
device and then select one of them to use. The VGA Printer device
remembers all of the printers that you have configured. This
makes it easy to move the VGA Printer device to different
locations and either add a new printer or print to a previously
added printer.
As well, if you have special printer needs or want to print to a
printer that the VGA Printer device cannot find or does not
automatically support, the VGA Printer device supports
uploading PPD files or creating custom printer configurations.
Printing Captured Images
You can print captured images by pressing the Print button on
the VGA Printer device. You can also print from the Web admin
interface. Finally you can automate print requests using an
RS-232 interface or by using a custom VGA Printer URL.
User Guide Page 7
1. Introduction About This Document
The VGA Printer device displays the current captured image on
the Web admin interface so that you can preview the image
before you print it. You can also use the VGA Printer Web admin
interface to add annotations to printed images and to adjust
image capture settings and printer settings to optimize the
printed image quality.
The VGA Printer device queues print jobs which means you can
continue to print captured images without having to wait for the
previous print job to finish.

Changing the VGA Printer IP Address
You can change the VGA Printer IP address at any time. You may
need to change the IP address so that PCs on the network can
connect to the VGA Printer Web admin interface and so that the
VGA Printer device can connect to network printers.
• If the network does not have a DHCP server you will most
likely need to change the VGA Printer IP address.
• If the network does have a DHCP server you might also want
to change the VGA Printer IP address if you would rather the
the VGA Printer device have a static IP address instead of a
dynamic address assigned by the DHCP server.
• You can also change the VGA Printer IP address even if the
DHCP server has assigned an IP address. If for some reason
the DHCP server goes down, you can switch the VGA Printer
to connect using the static IP address.
To change the VGA Printer IP address
This procedure describes how to disable DHCP and give the VGA
Printer device a static IP address.
1 Log into the VGA Printer Web admin interface.
