Chapter 2 Setting Up the Network Function

General description of the network setup

With the network interface card, there are five ways to print over TCP/IP.

Use IP/P2P in peer-to-peer printing setup via Windows 95/98/Me

Use IPX/P2P in peer-to-peer printing setup via Windows 95/98/Me

Use LPD/LPR via Windows NT/2000

Use lpd/lpr via UNIX

Use UNIX-TCP/IP Programs via UNIX

Assigning IP Address

Before printing over TCP/IP, you first need to assign the IP address to the network interface card. There are three ways to assign the IP address to the network interface card.

Assign an IP address from the copier's control panel.

Use MAP (Management Access Program) for assigning a IP address

An IP address may be assigned either automatically via DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) or manually.

When initially connecting the network interface card to networks that are not using DHCP, you need to confirm the following information:

IP address to assign to the network interface card

Network address of the network interface card (MAC[Media Access Control] address or Ethernet address)

Check with the network administrator for the IP address assigned to the network interface card. The net- work (MAC) address of the network interface card is found on the Status Page (network setup list). It is also indicated on the label on the network interface card.

(p.2-8)

(p.2-24)

Depending on the network interface card settings, the Status Page cannot be output.

For more information about setup, refer to "Network Setup" in this chapter. (p.2-35)

By Using the Control Panel

For how to setting an IP address and others from the copier's control panel.

(p.2-8)

For how to operate the control panel, refer to the Copier INSTRUCTION MANUAL.

2-2

Chapter 2 Setting Up the Network Function

Using BOOTP Lite (Windows 95/98/Me/NT/2000)

From Windows 95/98/Me/NT/2000, you can use the BOOTP Lite program to assign the IP address to the network interface card. TCP/IP must be set up correctly on the computer that will execute this pro- gram. To copy/install the program files in the Windows directory perform the following procedure:

1. Reset the print controller and the main body printer.

The BOOTP Lite program uses the BOOTP protocol. The BOOTP request is for a finite period of time the print controller and the main body printer must be freshly reset for this to work.

2. Insert the accompany CD-ROM into CD-ROM drive, and double click [Bootpl32.exe] in the "English\NetUtil\BOOTP" folder.

3.

4.

5.

6.

Pull down the [Admin] menu to [Configure] option.

Enter the [IP address] that you want to assign to the network interface card, its [Sub- net Mask] (make sure it matches what you are using on your subnet), [Default Gate- way] (your router's IP address), and the [MAC address] of the network interface card.

Use colons as delimiters as shown on the Status Page rather than the dashes Windows uses.

Click on Go.

Wait about five minutes. The network interface card should recycle and produce a Status Page showing the IP parameters you have just entered.

7.

8.

Pull down the [Admin] menu to [Verify].

You should get a message back stating that [The Unit is Active]. If you do not get this message, verify that TCP/IP is enabled on the Status Page.

When you get a response that the unit is active, you should be able to ping the net-

work interface card.

2-3

Chapter 2 Setting Up the Network Function

Using arp command (Windows 95/98/Me/NT/2000)

From Windows 95/98/Me MS-DOS prompt or at Windows NT/2000 command prompt, you can use the arp command to assign the IP address to the network interface card. It is necessary that TCP/IP is set up correctly on the computer that will execute the arp command. Perform the following procedure:

1. At Windows 95/98/Me, select [Start]->[Programs]->[MS-DOS prompt]. At Windows NT/ 2000, select [Start]->[Programs]->[Accessories]->[Command prompt].

2. Execute the arp command. For example, if the MAC address of the network interface card is 00:11:22:33:44:55 and the IP address to assign is 192.168.0.128, then input as shown below, and then press [Enter].

(Example: C:\>arp -s 192.168.0.128 00-11-22-33-44-55

3. Turn off the main power supply to the print controller and the main body printer, then turn it back on.

4.

5.

A Status Page will be output. Check that the IP address is correctly set in the list. Or, when about 5 minutes have passed after having restarted the print controller and the main body printer using the ping command, check that the network interface card responds correctly. The ping command is also executed at Windows 95/98/Me MS-DOS prompt or Windows NT/2000 Command prompt. An exam- ple of executing a ping command is shown below.

(Example: C:\>ping 192.168.0.128

Open the prompt window by same way as in 1.

Execute the ping command for the assigned IP address. In this case, no response is returned from the network interface card.

(Example: C:\>ping 192.168.0.128

2-4

Chapter 2 Setting Up the Network Function

Using arp command (UNIX)

From UNIX you can use the arp command to assign the IP address to the network interface card. Perform the following procedure:

1. Turn off the print controller and the main body printer.

2. Log in as superuser on a host on the same subnet as the network interface card.

If the server resides on another subnet, complete this procedure to store the IP address in the network interface card.

3. Find the MAC address of the network interface card. The address is printed on the Status Page each time you turn on the print controller and the main body printer.

4. Edit the hosts file (usually /etc/hosts) or use NIS or DIS to add IP address and node name of the network interface card. See the network administrator for the IP address. For example, a network interface card with a name of printfast and an IP address of 192.9.200.200 has the entry:

192.9.200.200 printfast

5. Add an entry to the arp cache for IP address and MAC address of the network inter- face card, as:

arp -s 192.9.200.200 0:40:c8:0:0:ff

RS6000 (AIX) requires the ether option after arp -s. For example:

arp -s ether 192.9.200.200 0:40:c8:0:0:ff

6. Check the print controller and the main body printer to see that the network interface card is connected to the network. Turn on the print controller and the main body printer.

7. Send a ping command to the network interface card to verify it is running on the net- work, as for example:

ping 192.9.200.200 or ping printfast

The network interface card will not respond to this ping command but it will read its IP address from the packets.

8. Turn off the print controller and main body printer. Turn them back on and send the ping command again to verify that the network interface card obtained its IP address. A confirmation message displays as:

Using MAP

By using MAP (Management Access Program) included the accompanying CD-ROM that comes with the network interface card, you can automatically identify the network interface card on the network and set it up for TCP/IP by using Web Utilities. To use this method to assign the IP address to the network interface card, the following procedure should be performed on computers in advance:

TCP/IP correctly configured

IPX/SPX-compatible protocol installed

MAP installed and MAP setup correctly executed

For information about how to set up TCP/IP and how to install IPX/SPX-compatible protocol, refer to Win- dows Help menus for example.

For MAP, (p.2-25).

To change an IP address already assigned to a network interface card, you cannot use the arp command. Use Web Utilities instead. These methods also allow you to set up subnet mask and default gateway, etc.

Accessing Web Utilities

The network interface card is provided with an HTTP server which have Web Utilities through a Web Browser, either Netscape(version 4.x or greater) or Internet Explorer (version 4.x or greater): By access- ing this server, you can change settings of the printing system. There are two ways to access Web Utili- ties, through a Web Browser, either through Netscape Navigator, version 4.x or greater or through Internet Explorer, version 4.x or greater.

Use MAP to have the network interface card on the networks identified automatically, thereby access- ing Web Utilities.

Use a Web Browser to type the IP address assigned to the network interface card, and thereby access the Web Utilities. For example:

http://192.168.0.128/

(p.2-30)

If you designate the proxy setting in your Web Browser you cannot access the Web Utilities. For more information see your network adminisrator.
