Configuration
introduCtion
This machine has a fast 100BASE-TX/10BASE-T network interface. This guide explains its functionality.
Although the Network Interface is integral in some machines and is added as a Network Interface Card (NIC) in others, access for interconnection and producing self-diagnostic test and configuration printouts is provided in both cases via an interface panel at the rear of the printer.
This network interface card supports IEEE802.2, IEEE802.3, Ethernet-II and SNAP and can detect those frame types automatically.
Also, the interface card supports major protocols such as TCP/IP, IPX/ SPX (NetWare), EtherTalk and NetBEUI.
This section details the Network Interface specification and several software utilities.
For multiple emulation printers, change the emulation in the Printer Menu settings to Auto or PS before printing the self-diagnostic test and settings.

is used. Use of an incorrect IP address can cause serious problems on your network.
The following explanation uses Sun Solaris 2.4 as an example. The method of configuring commands may differ between workstations. Refer to the workstation's manual.
1. Login as [root].
If you do not have Superuser rights, the network manager should run the configuration.
2. Set a temporary IP Address on the NIC using the ARP command.
Example: for IP address 192.168.20.127 and network card address 00:80:87:01:00:D2
# arp -s 192.168.20.127 00:80:87:01:00:D2 temp
The Ethernet address (MAC address) is displayed during the self­diagnostic test. A temporary address does not need to be set if an IP address has already been set.
3. Use the PING command to confirm the connection with the network card.
Example: for IP address 192.168.20.127
# ping 192.168.20.127
If there is no reply, there is a problem with the configuration of the IP address (the IP address has been already set manually or dynamically), or with the network. Reset the network interface card settings to default and try to set temporary IP address. If you still have the problem after resetting the network interface card, consult the network manager.

This chapter provides guidelines on how to print over the network from various Microsoft Windows platforms. There are numerous ways of printing from Windows and the exact set-up will vary depending upon your environment. There are also numerous versions of Windows, which can be configured as either a client, server or both.
Although there are many variants of Windows, the principles of network printing are the same. Microsoft provides on-line help with all of their operating systems and this is a good reference point for the exact details of each configuration option within Windows.
The network printer supports the following protocols that can be used in conjunction with the Windows operating system:
TCP/IP

These functions are built into Windows and are displayed as options when using the Add Printer Wizard.
Although there are some differences in configuration options between the various Windows platforms, the procedure for printing using TCP/IP is the same.
1. Ensure that the TCP/IP protocol has been installed in Windows. This can be confirmed by checking the network settings from within the Control Panel. If TCP/IP has not been installed refer to the section below Installation of TCP/IP protocol.
2. If not already configured, a suitable IP address, Subnet Mask and Gateway address should be configured. Please refer to the on-line help if necessary. It is vital that the IP address entered is unique and valid. Entering an incorrect IP address may cause severe network problems. Please check the address with the network administrator.
3. If your network environment uses domain names, DNS should be enabled and configured on your system. However, this step is not essential to enable network printing.
4. Restart the operating system.

novell netWare iPX
IPX is used with Novell NetWare. The Network interface supports Novell 3, 4, 5 and 6, and allows print jobs to be directed to the appropriate Novell print queue. Please refer to the relevant section of this manual for additional information.
netBeui Protocol
NetBEUI is a protocol that was designed for use on small workgroups or LANs. Within Windows, NetBEUI is used for file and printer sharing between computers. It provides a simple method of printing but the protocol does have limitations and is not as robust as TCP/IP or IPX. Typically it is employed in small or home networks.
Network Printer Settings
There are three configurable items under NetBEUI within the printer. These can be configured using the standard set-up utility described in the "Configuration" chapter.
COMPUTER NAME: NAME ASSIGNED TO THE PRINTER
Workgroup: PrintSer ver
Comment: User definable description

Novell NetWare
overvieW
The Network Interface supports the Novell NetWare environment.
It is necessary to have NetWare Administrator or Supervisor rights to change the configuration. This guide is for NetWare administrators. It should be read in conjunction with the relevant Novell NetWare manual. The latest Novell service packs and Novell client versions should be installed.
Supported verSioNS aNd ModeS
NetWare 3.11 + Bindery
NetWare 4.1+ Bindery and NDS
NetWare 5+ Binder y, NDS and NDPS
NetWare 6 Bindery, NDS, NDPS and iPrint
In NDS, the printer can be configured to work in either print server mode or remote printer mode.
reMote priNter Mode
Remote Printer Mode requires a connection to be made to a workstation running Pserver. Print jobs are received from the file server via the NetWare print server. The network interface card emulates the workstation on which the NetWare Rprinter operates. Remote Printer Mode adds additional traffic to the network and is slower than Print Server Mode but does not require any additional licences.
priNt Server Mode (recoMMeNded)
In Print Server Mode, the file server is logged in and the printer queue is repeatedly polled to determine whether a print job exists. The NetWare print server or workstation where Pserver runs is emulated. This enables high speed printing without applying a load to the network. Print Server Mode requires a single user NetWare licence.
Novell Net Ware 55
Printing the Network Interface Card Configuration Sheet
The printer's configuration page reports information that is required for NetWare configuration. To print a configuration page, while the printer is switched on, depress the push-button on the Network Interface Card for three seconds and then release.
The information that you require is the printer's Ethernet address. The first six characters of the Ethernet address are the same for all Network Interfaces. The last six characters of the Ethernet address are unique to each card.
This is all the information that is required to setup the Network Interface for NetWare.
Setup utilitieS
Use NWAdmin32 or the Pconsole utility to create and setup NetWare printer objects. Please refer to Novell documentation for instructions on how to achieve this.
Use the Network Card Setup Utility (Adm inManager) or other printer manager software, (Web browser, etc.) to configure the network interface card. For instructions please refer to the Configuration Utility section and online help.

192.168.20.127 nnnnn
3. Use the ping command to confirm connection with the network card.
Example: for host name nnnnn
# ping nnnnn
UNIX 61
4. Register the printer in the /etc /printcap file.
Example: for host name nnnnn, to create a queue called nnnnn_lp
nnnnn _ lp: \ :lp=:rm=nnnnn:rp=lp:\ :sd=/usr/spool/nnnnn _ lp:\ :lf=/usr/spool/nnnnn _ lp/nnnnn _ lp _ errs:
Where:
nnnnn _ lp lp:
rm:
rp: sd: lf:
The name of the printer queue
The name of the device used to connec t to the printer. Does not need to be specified for a remote machine.
The name of the host of the remote printer. This should be the same as the name added to the / etc /hosts file.
The name of the printer on the remote printer. It should be lp.

# chown -R daemon /usr/spool/nnnnn _ lp
# chgrp -R # daemon /usr/spool/nnnnn _ lp
6. Check that lpd (printer daemon) is activated.
# ps aux | grep lpd
7. If lpd is not running, you can start it by logging in as superuser and executing
# /usr/lib/lpd &
UNIX 62
Sun Solaris 2.x configuration
Admintool is normally used to register remote printers on Open Windows. However, it cannot be used here, as the data recipient and queue have the same name. The procedure below must be used for registering a remote printer.
If Solaris 2.x is connected to the remote printer for a long period according to the system specifications, errors and forced disconnection may occur. Therefore, if paper tearing, off-line and other errors result in waiting time, printing may have to be aborted.
if an incorrect IP address is entered, the network may go down or other damage may occur. Configure after consulting the network manager.
The following explanation uses Sun Solaris 2.8 (known as Solaris 8) and a nnnnn printer as examples. The absolute path and method of configuring commands may differ in other versions of the OS. Refer to the workstation manual for more details.
1. Confirm that the IP address of the printer has been set.
2. Login as [root] to the workstation. If you do not have superuser
rights, the network manager should conduct the configuration.

b. Select [remote] (the printer connected to the remote host)
from [Type of connection].
c. Select [Standard procedure] from Type of remote print.
UNIX 67
d. Carry out the following settings in [Add a standard remote
print queue]. If the configuration differs from below, configure according to environment.
Example: for direct output port lp with print queue nnnnn_lp and print server nnnnn
Queue to be added "nnnnn _ lp" Host name of the remote server "nnnnn" Queue name of the remote server "lp" Type of print spooler of the remote server "BSD" Description of printer name of the remote server "Optional comment"
LPD Printing
Line Printer Daemon (LPD) is the most common protocol for printing with TCP/IP to a network printer. Refer to the workstation's manual for details of lpr and lp commands. The following explanation in this section uses the printing of print file test.prn with printer name nnnnn_lp as an example.
Logical printers
The Network Interface includes three logical printers.
lp must be used for printing a file created using the printer driver.
>
sjis must be used for printing a text file of Shift JIS Kanji code.
>
euc must be used for the printing a text file of the EUC Kanji
>
code.
LOGICAL PRINTER PRINTER FUNCTION
lp For direct output
sjis For Shift JIS Kanji converted output
euc For EUC Kanji converted output
sjis and euc function only as PostScript printers.
>
UNIX 68
BSD-based UNIX
Print using the lpr command.
# lpr -Pnnnnn _ lp test.prn
If the lprm command is used, the print job is cancelled.
Example: To delete a print job (Job ID 123) on the nnnnn_lp
# lprm -Pnnnnn _ lp 123
Verify the printer status using the lpq command.
The result of lpq may not be displayed correctly depending on UNIX
>
operating system specification.
While the short format of lpq is a UNIX compatible format, the long
>
format is unique to the Network Interface.
Example of the short format: # lpq -Pnnnnn _ lp
Example of the long format: # lpq -l -Pnnnnn _ lp
System V-based UNIX
Print using the lp command.
# lp -d nnnnn_lp test.prn
Delete a print job using cancel command.
Example: To delete a print job (Job ID 456) in the nnnnn_lp
# cancel nnnnn _ lp -456
Verify the printer status using the lpstat command.
# lpstat -pnnnnn _ lp
The result of lpstat may not be displayed correctly depending on
>
UNIX operating system specification (e.g. Solaris 2.x).
UNIX 69
FTP printing
FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is used for transferring a file with TCP/IP. If the print data is sent to a logical printer via FTP, it is printed.
Refer to the workstation's manual for details of the ftp command. The following explanation uses print file test.prn with printer name nnnnn_lp as an example.
Logical directories
The Network Interface includes three logical directories.
lp must be used for printing a file created using the printer driver.
sjis must be used for printing a text file of Shift JIS Kanji code.
euc must be used for the printing a text file of the EUC Kanji code.
LOGICAL DIRECTORY PRINTER FUNCTION
lp For direct output
sjis For Shift JIS Kanji converted output
euc For EUC Kanji converted output
jis and euc function only as PostScript printers.
>
You can not send data to the root directory.
>
1. Login to the network interface card.
When printing with ftp, use any values for name and password. However, if the user name is [root], the password set under TELNET or the utility is required. See the appropriate section for details.
Example: Logging in with host name nnnnn (or IP address
192.168.20.127).
# ftp nnnnn (or ftp 192.168.20.127 Connected to nnnnn 220 EthernetBoard nnnnnnnnn Ver P2.03 FTP Server Name (nnnnn:<none>) : root 331 Password required. Password:<CR> 230 User Logged in ftp>
UNIX 70
The network card logical directory structure is hierarchical. Move to the logical directory; it is not possible to output print data to the root directory.
2. Move to the preferable logical directory using the cd command.
Example: moving to the lp directory and confirming the current directory.
ftp> cd /lp 250 Command OK. ftp> pwd 257 "/lp" is current directory ftp>
3. Configure the transfer mode
There are two types of transfer mode: BINARY mode, in which the file content is output as it is and ASCII mode, which converts the LF code to the CR+LF code. If a binary file converted by the printer driver is transferred, the transfer mode has to be BINARY mode.
Example: changing transfer mode to binary mode and verifying the current mode
ftp> type binary 200 Type set to I. ftp> type Using binary mode to transfer files. ftp>
4. Transfer the print data to the network card using the put command. Two methods of file transfer using the put command are available.
Example: transferring print data test.prn
ftp> put test.prn
Example: transferring print data specified by absolute path/users/test/ test.prn
ftp> put /users/test/test.prn /lp
5. Logout from the network card using the quit command
ftp> quit
Three states can be verified using the quote command stat : the IP address, login user name and transfer mode. In addition, printer status can be verified by specifying the directory after the stat (lp, sjis, euc).
UNIX 71
Example: displaying network card status
ftp> quote stat 211-FTP server status: Connected to: 192.168.20.10.000.00 User logged in: root Transfer type: BINARY Data connection: Closed. 211 End of status. ftp>
Example: displaying the network card status (directory name: lp)
ftp> quote stat /lp 211-FTP directory status: Ready 211 End of status ftp>
