Purp os e of This Docume nt

The purpose of this document is to provide an experienced Systems Admin istrator with information for setting up the DocuPrint printer on the various networks indicated.

This document is for use with Xerox DocuPrint Networked printers, the Xerox CentreDirect External Print Server (External Ethernet Adapter) and certain other networked printers. Because most of the printer's features and functionality are shared by all of these printers, this document uses the generic name “DocuPrint printer” when referring to any of them. Certain f eatures are no t available for printers connected with the Xerox CentreDir ect External Print Server (External Eth ernet Adapter).

Purpose of This Document

Requirements

Additional

information

In general, the requireme nts needed for printer connection and se tup include:

• A workstation with the appropriate operating system software installed for that station.

• A working knowledge of your network.

Additional information may be found in on-line help and electronic documentation supplied with your printer. This documentation may include a System Administrator

Guide on the printer CD-ROM for most printers and a Technical Information Guide on the Printer

For CentreDirect

External Pr int Server

(External Ethernet

Adapter)

You must have NetBEUI protocol loaded on your Windows 95/98 workstation (see your Windows documentation for he lp in loadin g this proto col).

Quick Install Steps

In order to find your Cent reD irect External Print Server (External Ethernet Adapter), it must have a NetBEUI group name that matches a valid group in your network. The CentreDirect External Print Server (External Ethernet Adapter) comes with the default group name of “WORKGROUP”. T his is the same default name used by Microsoft Windows. If you have changed the NetBEUI group name o n your workstatio n, the group name of the CentreDirect Extern al P rint Server (External Et hernet Adapter ) must be changed to m atch tha t of your workstation.

10 ❖ Quick Ne twork Inst all G uide

If you are running IPX or TCP/IP o n your n etwork in addition to NetBEUI, you may use CentreWare DP to change t h e N e tB E UI g r oup na m e. See the CentreWare DP User Guide on the Printer M anagement Software CD for more details.

Windows 95/98 Peer-to-Peer Network

To change the group name in a NetBEUI-only network:

Load the Printer Management Software CD-ROM.

Copy “showprn.exe” and “nbmon.exe” to your Windows

directory from the Printer Management Software CD. The path is: <CD drive>:\INSTAL\UTILITY\NE TB I OS

Open a DOS shell and type showprn.exe. A list of

CentreDirect External Print Server (External Ethernet Adapter) on your local network segment should appear.

If NETBEUI is not your default protocol, it may be necessary to use the “-d#“ command option to show the list of CentreDirect External Print Server (External Ethernet Adapter)s. In this case, the syntax is between 0 and 7. Some experimentation may be required to find the correct port number.

Verify that the CentreDirect External Print Server

(External Ethernet Adapter) appears in the list. The default name is of the format “XRXaaaaaa”, where “aaaaaa” are the last six digits of the CentreDir ect Exte rnal Pri nt Server (External Ethernet Adapter) Ethernet address.

showprn.exe -d#

, where # is a number

Type nbmon.exe XRXaaaaaa to open a session with the

CentreDirect External Print Server (External Ethernet Adapter). If the “-d#” opti o n was required for showprn.exe, it should be used with nbmon.exe also.

The CentreDire c t External Pri nt Serve r ( External Ethernet

Adapter) will return a list of option s. Type ! to enter a monitor se s sion.
