2.1 Installation Procedure for Printing Through LPD or Port9100
This section explains the installation procedure for printing from a Windows NT® 4.0/
Windows
Port9100.
®
2000/Windows®XP/Windows Server™ 2003 computer through LPD or
System Configuration
As the printer supports the LPD and Port9100 protocol, you can print directly from Windows
NT 4.0/Windows 2000/Windows XP/Windows Server 2003 computer through the OS
standard LPR port (standard TCP/IP port for Windows 2000/Windows XP/Windows Server
2003).
The transport protocol for LPD and Port9100 can be TCP/IP.
You will need to set up the IP address on the printer and the Windows NT 4.0/Windows
2000/Windows XP/Windows Server 2003 computer. And once the printer registered on the
Windows NT 4.0/Windows 2000/Windows XP/Windows Server 2003 computer is shared,
you can also print from Windows 95/Windows 98/Windows Me computers through this
printer.
Windows NT 4.0/Windows 2000/Windows XP/
Windows Server 2003
Note
• Only Windows 2000/Windows XP/Windows Server 2003 support printing through Port 9100.
• When the LPD port is used, the printer can limit print instructions by IP addresses. For details, refer to
the User Guide.
Target Computers
The following computers support printing through LPD or Port9100:
Connection OS Service/Client Protocol

4 Printing Through SMB
4.1 Installation Procedure for Printing through SMB
Server Message Block (SMB) is a protocol for sharing files or printers on a Windows OS.
This section explains the installation procedure for connecting a printer to the Windows
network through SMB.
System Configuration
As the printer supports SMB protocol, you can print by sending print data directly to the
printer on the same network without going through the server.
You can use either NetBEUI or TCP/IP, or even both as the transport protocol for SMB. You
will need to set up the IP address on the printer and the computer if you are using TCP/IP.
Windows 95/Windows 98/Windows Me/
Windows NT 4.0/Windows 2000/Windows XP/
Windows Server 2003
Note
• Windows XP/Windows Server 2003 does not support NetBEUI.
Target Computers

16 4 Printing Through SMB
Set Up Procedure
The setting procedure is as follows:
1. Setting up the printer
• When using NetBEUI
Use the printer control panel or OkiWebRemote to set the SMB port to [Enable]
(default: [Enable]).
• When using TCP/IP
Set the IP address on the printer control panel.
Use the printer control panel or OkiWebRemote to set the SMB port to [Enable]
(default: [Enable]).
Note
• For details on how to set the IP address and the port, refer to the Setup and Quick Reference Guide.
• OkiWebRemote allows more detailed settings.
• By rewriting the [config.txt] file of the printer, SMB can be set or changed on a Windows computer. For
details, refer to “4.2 Setting/Changing SMB Using the [Config.txt] File” (P. 17).
2. Setting up the computer
Install the printer driver to the computer.
Refer to
• “4.3 Auto Driver Downloading” (P. 20)
4.2 Setting/Changing SMB Using the [Config.txt] File
You can change the SMB setting by accessing the setting file (config.txt) in the printer
through the Windows network from the computer. However, only the administrator is
allowed to do this.
The procedure below explains how to overwrite the [config.txt] file.You will need to know the
following items that have been set: SMB Host Name, Workgroup, Administrator Name, and
Administrator Password. The procedure here explains with Windows XP as an example.
1. Open [My Network Places] from the Windows computer, followed by [Workgroup]
(default: [Workgroup]) and then the printer.
Note
• The factory default of the host name of the printer is “OKI-xxxxxx” (where xxxxxx is the last six
characters of the printer MAC address). You can confirm the name by referring to SMB Host Name on
the [System Settings List].
Important
• This method does not enable printer search across subnets. For printer search across subnets, you
should set the WINS server or edit LMHOSTS. For details about LMHOSTS, refer to the Windows
manual.
2. Click the [admintool] folder.
The [Connect to Oki-xxxxxx] dialog box will be displayed.
3. For Windows 95/Windows 98/Windows Me, enter only the password (SMB
Administrator Password) and for Windows NT 4.0/Windows 2000/Windows XP/
Windows Server 2003, enter the user name (SMB Administrator Name) and password
(SMB Administrator Password).
Then, click [OK].
4.2 Setting/Changing SMB Using the [Config.txt] File 17

4. Using a text editor like Notepad, open the [config.txt] file.
5. If necessary, change each item , and then overwrite and close the [config.txt] file.
The [message.txt] file is created inside the [admintool] folder.
Refer to
• Details on the [config.txt] file: “Setting Format of [config.txt] File” (P. 19)
6. Open the [message.txt] file and check that it displays the following information.
Note
• If the [message.txt] file is not displayed, select [Refresh] from the [View] menu. If an error message
appears, check the contents that have been set again.
7. Close the [message.txt] file.
8. Switch off the printer, then switch on it again.
Note
• The setting changes you have made will be enabled when switching off and on the power switch or
saving [config.txt] file with its [Reboot] set to [Yes].
