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 172.168.20.127 and network card address 00:80:92:01:00:D2
# arp –s 172.168.20.127 00:80:92:01:00:D2 temp
The Ethernet address (MAC address) is displayed during the self-diagnostic 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 172.168.20.127
# ping 172.168.20.127
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 by the DHCP/RARP server), or with the network. Reset the network
OkiLAN 8300e Network User’s Guide
Configuration - 33
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 172.168.20.127
$ telnet 172.168.20.127
Trying 172.168.20.127

Using SNMP

The printer and network card can be managed via a standard SNMP management station. The network card supports SNMPv1 and MIB-II.
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.

Management Utility

PrintSuperVision

PrintSuperVision is a web-based application for managing printing devices connected to a network. It consists of two parts:
A web application based on Microsoft web server (Internet Information Server, IIS or Personal WEB Server, PWS), that provides the user interface.
A monitoring program (PrintSuperVisor) that runs all the time, collecting data and saving it in a database for statistical reports and sending E-mail alerts based on the saved configuration.
PrintSuperVision’s main functions are:
> Maintaining the list of printing devices and organising them in
logical groups.
> Initially discovering and configuring printers connected to the
network.
> Locating printers visually on maps.
> Monitoring devices over time and saving data for statistical
reports.
> Sending email alerts when events occur that affect the
functionality of printers.
> Creating statistical reports about usage of printers.
> Tracking maintenance data related to printers.
> Integrating with Oki Data’s on-line web support.

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
>NetBEUI

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:
Windows Version Method
Win 95/98/Me OKI LPR Utility NT 4.0 OKI LPR Utility
Microsoft LPR
Windows 2000/ Windows XP OKI LPR Utility
Microsoft LPR
Port 9100
1
IPP
1
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.

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.

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.
OkiLAN 8300e Network User’s Guide
UNIX - 83
Example: for IP address 172.68.20.127 and network card address 00:80:92:01:00:D2
# arp –s 172.168.20.127 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 172.168.20.127
# ping 172.168.20.127
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 by the DHCP/RARP server), 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 172.168.20.127
#telnet 172.168.20.127
Trying 172.168.20.127
Connected to 172.168.20.127
Escape character is ‘^]’.

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.
OkiLAN 8300e Network User’s Guide
UNIX - 86
2. Register the IP address of the network card and the host name in the /etc/hosts file.
Example: for IP address 172.168.20.127 and host name PRINTER
172.168.20.127 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 by the DHCP/RARP server) 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.
4. Register the printer in the /etc/printcap file.
Example: for host name PRINTER, to create a queue called PRINTER_lp
PRINTER_lp: \
:lp=:rm=C7400:rp=lp:\
:sd=/usr/spool/PRINTER_lp:\
:lf=/usr/spool/PRINTER_lp/OKIPRINTER_lp_errs:
PRINTER_lp The name of the printer queue
lp: The name of the device used to connect to the printer. Does not need to be specified for a remote machine.
OkiLAN 8300e Network User’s Guide
UNIX - 87
rm: The name of the host of the remote printer. This should be the same as the name added to the /etc/hosts file.
rp: The name of the printer on the remote printer. It should be lp.
sd: The spool directory. Give the absolute path.
lf: The error log file. Give the absolute path.
5. Create the spool directory and error log file.
Example: for spool Directory PRINTER_lp and Error Log file OKIPRINTER_lp_errs
# mkdir /usr/spool/PRINTER_lp
#touch/usr/spool/PRINTER_lp/PRINTER _lp_errs
# chown –R daemon /usr/spool/PRINTER_lp
# chgrp –R # daemon /usr/spool/PRINTER_lp
6. Check that lpd (printer daemon) is activated.
# ps aux | grep lpd
7. If lpd is not running,start it by logging in as superuser and executing
# /usr/lib/lpd &
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
OkiLAN 8300e Network User’s Guide
UNIX - 88
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 172.168.20.127 and host name PRINTER
172.168.20.127PRINTER
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 by the DHCP/RARP server), 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.
OkiLAN 8300e Network User’s Guide
UNIX - 89
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. Start the print scheduler.
# /usr/sbin/lpsched
d. Activate the print queue.
# /usr/sbin/accept PRINTER_lp
e. 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
# /usr/sbin/lpadmin –p PRINTER_lp –m PRINTER_model
# /usr/sbin/lpsched
OkiLAN 8300e Network User’s Guide

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 PRINTER_lp as an example.
Logical printers
The OkiLAN print server 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.

> sjis and euc function only as PostScript printers.
BSD-based UNIX
Print using the lpr command.
# lpr –PCprinter_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 okiprinter_lp
# lprm –PCprinter_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 OkiLAN print server.
Example of the short format: # lpq –PCprinter_lp
Example of the long format: # lpq –l -PCprinter_lp
System V-based UNIX
Print using the lp command.
# lp –d Cprinter_lp test.prn
Delete a print job using cancel command.
Example: To delete a print job (Job ID 456) in the printer_lp
OkiLAN 8300e Network User’s Guide
UNIX - 96
# cancel Cprinter_lp -456
Verify the printer status using the lpstat command.
# lpstat –pCprinter_lp
>The result of lpstat may not be displayed correctly depending
on UNIX operating system specification (e.g. Solaris 2.x).
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 okiprinter_lp as an example.
Logical directories
The OkiLAN print server 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

> You can not send data to the root directory.
OkiLAN 8300e Network User’s Guide
UNIX - 97
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 are required. See the appropriate section for details.
Example: Logging in with host name printer (or IP address
172.168.20.127).
# ftp printer (or ftp 172.168.20.127

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

3. Configure the transfer mode
There are two types of transfer mode: BINARY mode, in which the file contents are 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
