ETWORK CONFIGURATION
I
NTRODUCTION
Your printer incorporates a fast 100BASE-TX/10BASE-T network
interface. This User’s Guide explains the functionality of the built
in network interface. 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 supports IEEE802.2, IEEE802.3, EthernetII and SNAP, and can detect those frame types automatically.
Also, the interface supports major protocols such as TCP/IP, IPX/
SPX (NetWare), EtherTalk and NetBEUI.
This section details the network interface specification and
several software utilities.
You should set the emulation in the Printer Menu settings to Auto
or PS before printing the self-diagnostic test and settings.

TELNET
The printer can be configured using TELNET. TELNET requires the
printer to have a valid IP address configured. If the printer
already has an IP address configured, skip steps one to three
below.
CAUTION!
Please ensure a valid IP address for your 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.Log in 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 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 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.

ANAGEMENT UTILITY
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 requires the .NET environment to be installed
on the PC on which it runs. The supplied installer will install this
if necessary.
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 affects the
functionality of printers.
> Statistical reports about usage of printers.
— P
RINTSUPERVISION
> Tracking maintenance data related to printers.
> Identifying part numbers of consumable items for use
with your printer.
> PrintSuperVision can even manage printers on another
network provided a copy of PrintSuperVision is also
running on that network.

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

Although there are some differences in configuration options
between the various Windows platforms, the procedure for
printing using TCP/IP is the same.
Microsoft Windows> 52
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.

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

OVELL NETWARE
O
VERVIEW
The printer 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 VERSIONSUPPORTED MODES
NetWare 3.11+Bindery
NetWare 4.1+Bindery and NDS
NetWare 5.0+Bindery, NDS and NDPS
NetWare 6.0Bindery, NDS, NDPS and iPrint
In NDS, the printer can be configured to work in either print
server mode or remote printer mode.
> 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.
> 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.
Novell NetWare> 64
P
RINTING THE CONFIGURATION PAGE
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 pushbutton 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 printer for
NetWare.
S
ETUP 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 (AdminManager) or
other printer manager
software, (Web browser,
JetAdmin, etc.) to configure the
network interface card. For
instructions please refer to the
Configuration Utility section
and online help. The illustration
here shows the NetWare
configuration page from
AdminManager.
NDPS G
This provides a gateway for NDPS. Gateways allow NDPS clients
to send jobs to printers that are not NDPS-aware (that is, printers
that are not equipped with embedded NDPS Printer Agents). You
select and configure a printer gateway when you create a new
Printer Agent.
ATEWAY
Novell NetWare> 65
Gateways translate NDPS queries
or commands to printer-specific
language that the physical printer
can use. This is possible because
gateways are configured to know
the specific type (make and
model) of printer being used. This
illustration shows a typical
gateway configuration.
The NDPS Gateway can be installed from the Oki Network CD
under Software Utilities. Please follow on-screen instructions.
You will require a drive mapping to the NetWare server that you
are installing to.
During installation, all files are
copied to the SYS:/SYSTEM and
SYS:/PUBLIC/WIN32 directories
on the NetWare server.
1.To set up the printer to
work with the NDPS
Gateway, you should
create a NDPS printer
object as normal with the
NWAdmin32 utility.
When you get to the
[Create Printer Agent]
screen, under [Gateway
Types] there should now
be an option for NDPS Gateway.
Novell NetWare> 66
2.Select this and click [OK] to continue. You will then be
presented with the Gateway Configuration Welcome
screen, click [Next] again and select Printer Interface
Type, either TCP/IP LPR or NetWare IPX and select [Next]
to continue. (TCP/IP configuration illustrated.)
You will then be requested to enter either the TCP/IP or IPX
address, depending on the type of interface selected in the
previous screen. If you do not know the address, you are
given the option to search on the network.
Once you have correctly input your network address you
will be prompted with a [Results] and then a [Summary]
screen.
Novell NetWare> 67
Press the [Finish] button on
the [Summary] screen so
the NDPS Printer object has
now been created and is
configured to use the NDPS
Gateway. This is the Printer
Control screen for the
completed printer.
IPRINT
iPrint is included in NetWare 6 and is Novell’s next generation of
printing software. It is Novell’s implementation of IPP (Internet
Printing Protocol). iPrint allows users to install, manage and print
to printers through Web browsers regardless of where the printer
is physically located or whether they know the printer’s network
address.
iPrint runs on top of Novell Distributed Print Services (NDPS) and
provides the following functionality:
> Global access to printers.
> Customizable view of any print environment.
> Flexible print deployment configurations.
> Secure printing.
The printer does not require any custom configuration for iPrint.
To enable and configure the iPrint service on your network,
please refer to your Novell NetWare 6 documentation.

UNIX
O
VERVIEW
The printer 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:
C
ONFIGURATION
N
ETWORK 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 printer.
> 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 manger
should conduct the configuration.
1.Log in as [root] to the workstation
2.If the printer 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
UNIX> 69
The Ethernet address (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
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 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.
If you still have the problem after resetting the network
interface card, consult the network manager.
4.Login 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

PERATING SYSTEM CONFIGURATION
This section explains how to configure a printer for major UNIX
operating systems.
SUN OS 4.X.X (BSD)
The following explanation uses Sun OS 4.1.3 and a C7300V2
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.
CONFIGURATION
CAUTION!
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.
If you do not have Superuser rights, the network manager should
conduct the configuration.
1.Login as [root] to the workstation.
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
c7350
192.168.20.127 c7350
3.Use the ping command to confirm connection with the
network card.
Example: for host name c7350
# ping c7350
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 network interface card,
consult the network manager.

SUN S
OLARIS
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.
CAUTION!
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 C7350 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
c7350
192.168.20.127 c7350
4.Use the ping command to confirm connection with the
network card.
Example: for host name c7350
# ping c7350
UNIX> 74
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. 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 c7350
(a)Stop the print scheduler.
# usr/sbin/lpshut
(b)Create the printer queue.
# /usr/sbin/lpadmin -p c7350_lp -v /dev/
null \
-m netstandard -o dest=c7350:lp
-o protocol=bsd
(c)Set the queue to accept PostScript print jobs.
# /usr/sbin/lpadmin -p c7300v2_lp -I
postscript
(d)Start the print scheduler.
# /usr/sbin/lpsched
(e)Activate the print queue.
# /usr/sbin/accept c7350_lp
(f)Enable the print queue
# /bin/enable c7350_lp
To customise 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 c7350_lp, with model file called
c7350_model

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 c7350_lp as an
example.
Logical printers
The printer’s network interface includes three logical
printers.
UNIX> 79
> 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 PRINTERPRINTER FUNCTION
lpFor direct output
sjisFor Shift JIS Kanji converted output
eucFor EUC Kanji converted output
> sjis and euc function only as PostScript printers.
BSD-based UNIX
Print using the lpr command.
# lpr –Pc7350_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
c7350_lp
# lprm –Pc7350_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 this network interface.
Example of the short format: # lpq –Pc7350_lp
Example of the long format: # lpq –l -Pc7350_lp
System V-based UNIX
Print using the lp command.
# lp –d c7350_lp test.prn
Delete a print job using cancel command.
UNIX> 80
Example: To delete a print job (Job ID 456) in the c7350_lp
# cancel c7350_lp -456
Verify the printer status using the lpstat command.
# lpstat –pc7350_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 c7350_lp as an example.
L
OGICAL DIRECTORIES
The printer’s 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 DIRECTORYPRINTER FUNCTION
lpFor direct output
sjisFor Shift JIS Kanji converted
output
eucFor EUC Kanji converted output
jis and euc function only as PostScript printers.
You can not send data to the root directory.
UNIX> 81
1.Log in 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 c7350 (or IP address
192.168.20.127).
# ftp c7350
(or ftp 192.168.20.127)

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
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.
UNIX> 82
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.
