LAN7120E3 C

ONFIGURATION

Your printer incoporates a fast 100BASE-TX/10BASE-T network interface. This Network Guide explains the functionality of the LAN7120E3 (Network Interface Card). Access for interconnection and producing self-diagnostic test and configuration printouts is provided 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.

The interface card also supports major protocols such as TCP/IP, IPX/SPX (NetWare) and NetBEUI.

This section details the network interface specification and several software utilities.

NOTE Not all utilities, features or protocols are supported by every operating system. Please check with your User’s Guide and support website for latest information.

ELF-DIAGNOSTIC TEST

With the printer power switched on, press the push-button on the network interface panel (at the rear of the printer) for more than three seconds and release. The self-diagnostic test results and configuration settings are printed.

Printed self-diagnostic test sample:

From this the Ethernet address is: 00:80:92:12:34:56

Restrictions

> The printer can not receive data from either the Centronics or the USB interfaces

with NIC installed. To use these remove the NIC.

> Set “Buffer Print” in the printer menu “I-Prime”. Missing data or other unexpected

problem occurs when anything else (“Invalid” or “Buffer Clear”) is selected.

> When the printer is off-line, the status displayed on WEB/AdminManager/TELNET

may not be correct.

> The link address is the same. > When large amounts of data are sent via FTP or IPP, time out may occur on the

application side.

About the differ e nt methods

Windows Standard TCP/IP port

The standard TCP/IP port simplifies connecting to remote printers using the TCP/IP protocol. A computer that acts as a print server must run the TCP/IP protocol in order to print.

Can be configured to use either LPR or RAW (e.g. Port9100).

Oki LPR

Used to connect your printer over TCP/IP using an LPR port. OkiLPR also includes useful tools enabling you to download PS and PRN files direct ly to your

printer and automatically redirect jobs to other printers on the network.

IPP

The IPP (Internet Printing Protocol) defines a standard protocol for printing as well as managing print jobs, media, resolution etc.

NetBEUI

NetBEUI (NetBios Extend ed User Interface) is a protocol that was designed for use in small workgroups or LANs. Within Windows NetBEUI is used for file and printer sharing between computers. It provides a simple method of printing, but it does have limitations, and i s not as robust as TCP/IP or IPX. Typically it is employed in small business or home networks.

ONFIGURING THE NETWORK PRINTER

Use the Standard Set-up utility to configure the IP Address, Subnet Mask and Gateway.

NOTE

> It will not be necessary for printers connected to a network using DHCP to

use this setup method.

> Some steps may not display depending on the network protocols installed.

1. Ensure that the printer is switched ON and connected to the network.

2. Insert the Network Software CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive. The set-up utility starts automatically. If it does not start, double-click setup.exe on the CD-ROM.

NOTE In the “Network Card Setup”, the “IP Acquisition Method” may display as “Manual”. This is because, when using the TCP/IP protocol in an environment without a DHCP server, you must assign the IP address manually. For instructions on how to do this, see below.

5. Select the appropriate network card, using the Ethernet address to identify it and click Next.

The Ethernet address (MAC Address) is displ ayed on the configuration map, refer t o

Using TCP/IP protocol

When using LPR in UNIX and other TCP/IP environments, please select Yes. To use in a TCP/IP environment an IP address should be assigned to the Ethernet card.

If Yes has been selected and TCP/IP is the only working protocol 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, assign the IP address manually.

If you are manually assigning an IP address, you need to enter:

> An IP address > Submit mask

> Gateway address

NOTE If you use the NetWare protocol, consult your network manager to ensure that the NetWare file server is properly installed and working on the network. Make sure that NetWare Client32 or IntranetWare Client is installed on your computer.

UPPORTED VERSIONS AND MODES

In NDS, the printer can be configured to work in either print server mode or remote printer mode.

EMOTE 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.

RINT SERVER MODE

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.

VERVIEW

The NIC 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:

NOTE Not all utilities are supported by every operating system. Please check with your support website for latest information.

ONFIGURATION

Network interface card s e ttin g

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.

NOTE

> 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.

> Login as root to change the configuration of the NIC. > 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.

NOTE If you do not have superuser rights, the network manager should conduct the configuration.

1. Log in as root to the workstation

2. If the NIC does not have an IP address already assigned, use the arp command to

set a temporary IP address.

Example: for IP address 192.68.20.127 and network card address 00:80:87:01:00:D2

# arp –s 192.168.20.127 00:80:87:01:00:D2 temp The Ethernet (MAC) address 00:80:87:01:00:D2 in the above example can be

determined from the network card self-diagnostic test.

3. Use the ping command to confirm the connection with the card.

Example: for IP address 192.168.20.127

UNIX > 47

# ping 192.168.20.127

NOTE

> If there is no reply, there is a problem with the configuration of the IP

address (the IP address has already been set manually or dynamically), or with the network. Reset the network interface card settings to default and try to set a temporary IP address.

PERATING 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 ML57xx 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. Login 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 myprn

192.168.20.127 myprn

3. Use the ping command to confirm connection with the network card.

Example: for host name myprn

# ping myprn If there is no reply, then there is a problem with the configuration of the IP address

(the IP address has already been set manually or dynamically) 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 card, consult your network manager.

4. Register the printer in the /etc/printcap file. Example: for host name myprn, to create a queue called myprn_lp

myprn_lp: \

:lp=:rm=myprn:rp=lp:\

:sd=/usr/spool/myprn_lp:\

:lf=/usr/spool/myprn_lp/myprn_lp_errs:

myprn_lpThe name of the printer queue

UNIX > 49

lp: The name of the device used to connect to the printer. Does not need to be specified for a remote machine.

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 myprn and Error Log file myprn_lp_errs

# mkdir /usr/spool/myprn_lp

# touch /usr/spool/myprn_lp/myprn_lp_errs

# chown –R daemon /usr/spool/myprn_lp

# chgrp –R # daemon /usr/spool/myprn_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 &

Sun Solaris 2.8 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 Sun Solaris 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, offline 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 (better known as Solaris 8) and an ML57xx printer as examples. The absolute path and method of configuring commands may differ between OS versions. Refer to the workstation manuals for more details.

The queue created in the following example sends the print job directly to the printer. To print data that the printer cannot process (such as PostScript data), refer to the workstation manual for 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 , th e net w ork

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 myprn

192.168.20.127 myprn

4. Use the ping command to confirm connection with the network card.

Example: for host name myprn

# ping myprn

If there is no reply, there is a problem with the configuration of the IP address (the IP address has already been set manually or dynamically), or with the network.

UNIX > 50

Reset the network interface card settings to default and try to set a temporary IP address. If you still have the problem after resetting the network interface card, consult the ne twork manager.

5. Register the network card as a remote printer server.

Example: for host name myprn

a.Stop the print scheduler. # usr/sbin/lpshut b.Create the printer queue. # /usr/sbin/lpadmin -p myprn_lp -v /dev/null \

-m netstandard -o dest=myprn:lp -o protocol=bsd c.Start the print scheduler. # /usr/sbin/lpsched d.Activate the print queue. # /usr/sbin/accept myprn_lp e.Enable the print queue # /bin/enable myprn_lp

HP-UX 10.x configuration

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.

The following example uses HP-UX10.20 and an ML57xx printer as examples. The ab solute 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. See network interface card IP address configuration for more information.

2. Login as root to the workstation. If you do not have superuser rights , th e net w ork manager should conduct the configuration.

3. 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 myprn

192.168.20.127 myprn

4. Use the ping command to confirm connection with the network card.

Example: for host name myprn

# ping myprn

If there is no reply, there is a problem with the configuration of the IP address (the IP address has already been set manually or dynamically), or with the network. Reset the network interface card settings to defaul t and try to set a temporary IP address. If you still have the problem after resetting the network interface card, consult the network manager.

5. If remote spooling is not already enabled on the HP-UX machine, carry out the following configuration.

a.Stop the printer spooler. # /usr/sbin/lpshut b.Add the following line to the /etc/inetd.conf file and register the remote

spooler. printer stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/rlpdameon –I

UNIX > 51

c.Restart inetd # /etc/inetd –c

6. Register the remote printer

Example: setting up a queue called myprn_lp to print to host myprn

a.Register the remote printer.

# /usr/sbin/lpadmin -pmyprn_lp -v /dev/null -mrmodel \

-ormmyprn -orplp -ocmrcmodel

-osmrsmodel -ob3

b.Activate the print queue.

# /usr/sbin/accept myprn_lp

c.Enable the print queue.

# /bin/enable myprn_lp

d.Enable the printer spooler.

# /usr/sbin/lpsched

AIX 4.1.5 configuration

The following explanation uses AIX4.1.5 and an ML57xx printer as examples. The absolute path of commands and the method of configuring may differ wi th the OS version. Refer to the workstation’s manual. If an incorrect IP address is entered, the network may go down or other damage may occur. Configure after consulting the network manager.

1. Log in as root. If you do not have superuser rights, the network manager should conduct the configuration.

2. Register the IP address and the host name in the /etc/hosts file. Example: for IP Address 192.168.29.127 and host name myprn

192.168.20.127 myprn

3. Use the ping command to confirm connection with the network card.

Example: for host name myprn

# ping myprn

4. Register the host that was previously registered as the print server.

Example: for the myprn registered as the print server

a.Add the print server.

# ruser –a –p myprn

b.Activate the remote printer daemon.

# startsrc –s lpd # mkitab ‘lpd:2:once:startsrc –s lpd’

5. Add the print queue using the smit command.

a.Activate the smit command and convert to the item Add print queue. # smit mkrque

b.Select remote (the printer connected to the remote host) from Type of connection.

UNIX > 52

c.Select Standard procedure from Type of remote print. d.Carry out the following settings in Add a standard remote print queue.

If the configuration differs from below, configure according to environment.

Example: Use port lp with print queue myprn_lp and print server myprn

Queue to be added“myprn_lp”

Host name of the remote server“ml57xx”

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 myprn_lp as an example.

Logical printers

The NIC 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.

BSD-based UNIX

Print using the lpr command.

# lpr –Pmyprn_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 myprn_lp

# lprm –Pmyprn_lp 123

Verify the printer status using the lpq command.

NOTE

> 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 NIC.

Example of the short format: # lpq –Pmyprn_lp Example of the long format: # lpq –l -Pmyprn_lp

UNIX > 53

System V-based UNIX

Print using the lp command.

# lp –d myprn_lp test.prn

Delete a print job using cancel command.

Example: To delete a print job (Job ID 456) in the myprn_lp

# cancel myprn_lp -456

Verify the printer status using the lpstat command.

# lpstat –pmyprn_lp

NOTE 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 myprn_lp as an example.

Logical directories

The NIC includes three logical directories.

LOGICAL DIRECTORY

lp For direct output sjis For Shift JIS Kanji converted output euc For EUC Kanji converted output

NOTE

> 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.

PRINTER FUNCTION

Example: Logging in with host name myprn (or IP address 192.168.20.127).

# ftp myprn (or ftp 192.168.20.127

Connected to myprn

220 EthernetBoard LAN7120E3 Ver 01.00 xx.xx FTP Server

Name (myprn:<none>) : root

331 Password required.

UNIX > 54

Password:<CR>

230 User Logged in

ftp>

The network card logical directory structure is hierarchical. Move to the logical directory; it is not possible to output print data to the root direct ory.

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).

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.

Example: displaying the network card status (directory name: lp)

UNIX > 55

ftp> quote stat /lp 211-FTP directory status: Ready 211 End of status ftp>
