8.If the settings are correct, click [Execute]. The new settings are
transmitted to the network card but the network card is still operating
with pre-transmission settings.
9.Click [Finish] to validate the new settings. Depending on the model, the
printer may have to be switched off and on again.
Using a Web browser
If the print server is connected to the network using TCP/IP, its settings and
the printer menu settings can be configured using a Web browser, such as
Microsoft Internet Explorer Version 3.0 and higher, or Netscape Navigator
version 3.0 and higher. No guarantees are offered for other browsers. Refer to
the relevant manuals for details of how to launch and use the browser.
The network addresses used in this manual are shown as examples only.
Network addresses used in your installation must be generated from your own
network. To apply configuration changes using a Web browser, you will be
prompted for a username and password.The username is [root] and the default
password is the last six digits of the Ethernet address.
The following explanation uses Windows 95 and Microsoft Internet Explorer

Configuration 37
Using TELNET
The OkiLAN can be configured using TELNET. TELNET requires the
OkiLAN to have a valid IP address configured. If the NIC already has an
IP address configured, skip steps one to three below.
>Note: Please ensure that a valid IP address for you network
environment 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
00:80:92:01:00:D2
# arp –s 192.168.20.127 00:80:92:01:00: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
Configuration 38
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 DHCP/RARP
server may run), 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.
4.Login to the network card using TELNET.
Example: for IP address 192.168.20.127
$ telnet 192.168.20.127
Trying 192.168.20.127

Using SNMP
The printer and network card can be managed via a standard SNMP
management station. The network card supports SNMPv1, MIB-II and
OKI Data Private MIB. In order for the OkiLAN to be managed correctly
from an SNMP management station, the OKI Data Private MIB needs to
be added to that management station. Please refer to the SNMP manager
documentation for information on how to do this.
The OKI Data Private MIB file can be found in the MIB folder on the
Network Software CD- ROM. Please refer to the readme file in the MIB
folder for further information.
The printer’s trap address can be set in five places using TCP/IP and in
one place with IPX.
Printer trap settings can be made with TELNET and a Web browser.
Using Setup Assistant
Setup Assistant is a large volume tool that can do the following:
>setup ID addresses on multiple print servers all at once.
>update firmware on multiple print servers all at once.
>update the template file and set details in multiple print servers all
at once.
Install Setup Assistant from the CD-ROM provided with your printer.

MICROSOFT WINDOWS
Overview
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
>IPX (Novell NetWare)
>NetBEUI
Microsoft Windows 69
Installation of TCP/IP Protocol
There are a number of options available when printing using TCP/IP for
Windows. The following table lists the options:

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.

and the IP address has not already been assigned, you can either
obtain an IP address automatically or assign an IP address.
When [Obtain an IP address automatically] is selected, the device IP
address will be automatically assigned by the DHCP server. In an
environment without a DHCP server, please assign the IP address
manually.
If you are assigning an IP address, you need to enter:
>An IP address
>Submit mask
>Gateway address.
9.Click [Next].

Novell Netware IPX
IPX is used with Novell NetWare. The OkiLAN 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.
Microsoft Windows 82
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
Chapter 1.
Computer Name:Name assigned to the printer
Workgroup:
Comment:User definable description
1
Although the workgroup name can be changed, it is recommended that it remain PrintServer.
PrintServer
Although there are some differences in configuration options between the
various Windows platforms, the procedure for printing using NetBEUI is
the same.
Please ensure the NetBEUI protocol has been installed in Windows. This
can be confirmed by checking the network settings. If NetBEUI has not
been installed please refer to the section below.

NOVELL NETWARE
Overview
The OkiLAN print server 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+Bindery, NDS and NDPS
NetWare 6Bindery, 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 licenses.
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 license.
Novell NetWare 88
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 NIC’s push-button for three seconds and then
release.
The Ethernet address (MAC Address) of the printer can be found on the
self-diagnostic printout, which can be printed by pressing the push-button
on the network card for two seconds and then releasing it.
The first six digits of the Ethernet address are the same for all OkiLan
print servers. The last six digits of the Ethernet address are unique to each
card
This is all the information that is required to setup the OkiLan 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 OKI Network Card Setup Utility (Quick Setup) or other printer
manager software, (AdminManager, Web browser, etc.) to configure the
network interface card. For instructions please refer to the Configuration
Novell NetWare 89
Utility section and online help. Below is the NetWare configuration page
from AdminManager.
Novell NetWare 90
UNIX
Overview
The OkiLAN print server supports many protocols such as LPD, FTP,
TELNET, SNMP and IPP, and works within the UNIX environment.
To use the network card within the UNIX environment, the following
steps are required:
Configuration
Network Interface card setting
The first step in installing the network card under UNIX is to set up the IP
address, Subnet Mask and Gateway. This section explains one way to set
them up from a UNIX workstation.
>The network addresses used in this manual are shown as examples
only. Network addresses used in your installation must be generated
for your own network.
>Log in as [root] to change the configuration of the Print Server. By
default, there is no root password.
>If an incorrect IP address, Subnet Mask or Gateway is entered, the
network may go down or other damage may occur. Check the
address with your network manager.
The following explanation uses Sun Solaris 2.8 (Solaris 8) as an example.
The actual commands may differ between versions of UNIX, so refer to
the workstation manuals for more information.
1.Log in as root to the workstation
>If you do not have superuser rights, the network manger should
conduct the configuration.
2.If the print server does not have an IP addresses already assigned,
use the arp command to set a temporary IP address.
Example: for IP address 192.68.20.127 and network card address
00:80:92:01:00:D2
UNIX 91
# arp –s 192.168.20.127 00:80:92:01:00:D2 temp
The Ethernet address (MAC address) 00:80:92:01:00:D2 in the above
example can be determined from the network card self-diagnostic test
which can be printed by pressing the push-button on the network card for
two seconds and then releasing it.
3.Use the ping command to confirm the connection with the network
interface 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 DHCP/RARP
server may run), 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.
4.Log in to the network interface card using TELNET.
Example: Logging in to IP address 192.168.20.127
#telnet 192.168.20.127
Trying 192.168.20.127
Connected to 192.168.20.127
Escape character is ‘^]’.
EthernetBoard OkiLAN
login: root
‘root’ user needs password to login.
password: <CR>
User ‘root’ logged in.
6.Log out from the network interface card. Turn the printer off and on
again to validate the following settings.
UNIX 94
Operating system configuration
This section explains how to configure a printer for major UNIX
operating systems.
Sun OS 4.x.x (BSD) configuration
The following explanation uses Sun OS 4.1.3 and an OKI printer as
examples. The absolute path of commands and the configuration method
may differ between OS versions, so refer to the workstation manuals for
more information.
If an incorrect IP Address, Subnet Mask or Gateway is entered, the
network may go down or other damage may occur. Check the address
with the network manager and confirm that the IP address of the printer
has been set.
1.Log in as [root[ to the workstation.
If you do not have Superuser rights, the network manager should conduct
the configuration.
2.Register the IP address of the network card and the host name in the
/etc/hosts file.
Example: for IP address 192.168.20.127 and host name PRINTER
192.168.20.127 PRINTER
3.Use the ping command to confirm connection with the network
card.
Example: for host name PRINTER
# ping PRINTER
If there is no reply, then there is a problem with the configuration of the
IP address (the IP address has been already set manually or DHCP/RARP
server may run) or with the network. Reset the network interface card
settings to their defaults and then try to set a temporary IP address. If you
still have the problem after resetting the network interface card, consult
the network manager.
UNIX 95
4.Register the printer in the /etc/printcap file.
Example: for host name PRINTER, to create a queue called PRINTER_lp
PRINTER_lp: \
7.If lpd is not running,start it by logging in as superuser and executing
# /usr/lib/lpd &
UNIX 96
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
an OKI 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.Log in as [root] to the workstation. If you do not have superuser
rights, the network manager should conduct the configuration.
3.Register the IP address of the network card and the host name in /
etc/hosts file.
Example: for IP Address 192.168.20.127 and host name PRINTER
192.168.20.127PRINTER
4.Use the ping command to confirm connection with the network
card.
Example: for host name PRINTER
# ping PRINTER
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 DHCP/RARP
server may run), or with the network.
UNIX 97
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.
5.Register the network card as a remote printer server.
Example: for host name PRINTER
a. Stop the print scheduler.
# usr/sbin/lpshut
b. Create the printer queue.
# /usr/sbin/lpadmin -p PRINTER_lp -v /dev/
null \
m netstandard -o dest=PRINTER:lp
-o protocol=bsd
c. Set the queue to accept PostScript print jobs.
# /usr/sbin/lpadmin -p PRINTER_lp -I post-
script
d. Start the print scheduler.
# /usr/sbin/lpsched
e. Activate the print queue.
# /usr/sbin/accept PRINTER_lp
f. Enable the print queue
# /bin/enable PRINTER_lp
To customize output, for example to add additional commands at the start
of each print job, you can edit a copy of the netstandard model file then
add it using the lpadmin command
Example: for printer PRINTER_lp, with model file called
PRINTER0_model
# /usr/sbin/lpshut
