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.

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

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.

OVELL NETWARE
IPX is used with Novell NetWare. The printer 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.
IPX
NETBEUI P
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.

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 VERSION SUPPORTED MODES
NetWare 3.11+ Bindery
NetWare 4.1+ Bindery and NDS
NetWare 5.0+ Bindery, NDS and NDPS
NetWare 6.0 Bindery, 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 Escape character is ‘^]’.

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

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.
UNIX> 72
4. Register the printer in the /etc/printcap file.
Example: for host name c7350, to create a queue called c7350_lp
c7350_lp: \ :lp=:rm=c7350:rp=lp:\ :sd=/usr/spool/c7350_lp:\ :lf=/usr/spool/c7350_lp/c7350_lp_errs:
c7350_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.
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

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
# /usr/sbin/lpshut
# /usr/sbin/lpadmin –p c7350_lp –m c7350_model
# /usr/sbin/lpsched

# /usr/sbin/accept c7350_lp
(c) Enable the print queue.
# /bin/enable c7350_lp
(d) Enable the printer spooler.
# /usr/sbin/lpsched
To customise output, for example, to add additional commands at the start of each print job, you can edit a copy of the /usr/ spool/lp/model/rmodel model file then add it using the lpadmin command.
Example: for printer c7350_lp, with model file called c7350_model
# /usr/sbin/lpshut
# /usr/sbin/lpadmin –pc7350_lp –
mc7350_model
# /usr/sbin/lpsched

AIX 4.1.5
CONFIGURATION
The following explanation uses AIX4.1.5 and a C7300V2 printer as examples. The absolute path of commands and the method of configuring may differ with the OS version. Refer to the workstation’s manual.
CAUTION!
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 c7350
192.168.20.127 c7350
3. Use the ping command to confirm connection with the network card.
Example: for host name c7300v2
# ping c7350
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. Register the host that was previously registered as the print server.
Example: for the C7350 registered as the print server
(a) Add the print server.
# ruser –a –p c7350
(b) Activate the remote printer daemon.
UNIX> 78
# 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].
(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 c7350_lp and print server c7350
Queue to be added “c7350_lp” Host name of the remote
server “c7350” 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 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 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 –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.

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)
Connected to c7350 220 EthernetBoard 8100e Ver 01.50 FTP Server Name (c7350:<none>) : root 331 Password required. 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 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. ftp>
Example: Displaying the network card status (directory name: lp)
ftp> quote stat /lp 211-FTP directory status: Ready 211 End of status ftp>

Apple Macintosh> 85
Macintosh OS–X
The built in network interface card is also supported in the Macintosh OS–X environment.
Run the installer on the driver CD to install the printer’s PPD file.
In OS–X you need to make sure that AppleTalk is turned on in order to connect to an AppleTalk printer.
1. To switch AppleTalk on, open [System Preferences], click [Network] then click [AppleTalk].
2. Check the [Make AppleTalk Active] check box and if your network uses AppleTalk Zones, enter the appropriate zone information and click [Apply Now].
In Mac OS–X use the Print Centre to select network printers, not the Chooser.
Before you can use a printer it must appear in the printer list in Print Centre.
3. Click on [Add Printer], make sure that the connection method is LPR and assign its IP address.
4. Either assign a queue name or check to use the default queue on server checkbox.
5. Under Printer Model select from the list the PPD file that you installed earlier for the printer and click [Add].
These are all the steps that are necessary to setup the printer for network printing in Macintosh OS–X.
