Supported Wireless Radio Cards

Note • This section applies only to the ZebraNet Wireless Print Server and the ZebraNet

Wireless Plus Print Server. All other Zebranet wireless print servers have a built-in radio.

A supported third-party PCMCIA, Compact Flash™, or CardBus wireless radio card is required for the printer to connect to the WLAN. After the wireless option board is installed in the printer, the wireless radio card inserts into a slot on this board. A wireless radio card is NOT provided with the ZebraNet Wireless Print Server or the ZebraNet Wireless Plus Print Server.

Note •

• Some wireless radio cards listed here may not support all ZebraNet wireless print server

features.

• See Table 1 on page 19 or check with the card manufacturer to ensure that the card that

you wish to use supports the wireless security type used on your WLAN.

• Some wireless radio cards may require specific firmware versions to support certain

features. You may be able to download new firmware to your wireless radio card. Check with the card manufacturer for more information.

• Check the operating conditions (such as temperature and humidity) for the wireless radio

card that you choose. If the card has more restrictions than the printer, this may limit the conditions under which you can operate the printer with a wireless connection.

Configuration of Wireless Securities

Important • A wireless option board must be installed on your printer before you can

configure the printer to communicate using a wireless radio card. See Hardware — Wireless

Print Servers on page 23 to determine if your printer has a wireless board. See Firmware — Wireless on page 27 for the required firmware version.

You may configure your printer for wireless operation in the following ways:

Through the Network Setup Wizard. The Network Setup Wizard is part of the ZebraNet™ Bridge Enterprise utility. The Network Setup Wizard writes a script for you. On the last screen of the wizard, you may choose to send the script directly to your printer, or you may choose to save the script to a file. The saved file has several purposes:

• The file can be sent to the printer through any available connection (serial, parallel, USB, or wired print server).

• The file can be resent to the printer after the network settings have been restored to factory defaults.

• The file can be sent to multiple printers that will use the same network settings.

Getting Started

Configuration of Wireless Securities

Note • To configure wired and wireless print servers on the same printer, run the program

once for each print server, creating a script for the wired print server and another for the wireless print server.

The ZebraNet Bridge Enterprise utility resides on the User CD for your printer and is available through http://www.zebra.com/software. ZebraNet Bridge Enterprise version 1.2.5 or later is required to configure the printer correctly for use.

Through ZPL script that you write. Use the ^WX command to set the basic parameters for security type. You can send the command through any available connection (serial, parallel, USB, or wired print server).

Refer to the Programming Guide for ZPL, ZBI, Set-Get-Do, Mirror, and WML for more information. A copy of the manual is available at http://www.zebra.com/manuals or on the User CD that came with your printer.

Through Set/Get/Do (SGD) commands. Begin with wlan.security to set the wireless security type. Depending on which security type that you select, other SGD commands will be necessary to specify other parameters. You can send the commands through any available connection (serial, parallel, USB, or wired print server).

Note • With printers running APL-I, APL-D, or EPL firmware, the only way to configure

wireless settings is through SGD commands.

SIGNAL STRENGTH and SIGNAL QUALITY

When these indicators display percentages, the wireless radio card is

communicating with the network. The higher the number is, the better the connection is between the printer and the network.

If your printer indicates a signal strength but you cannot communicate with the printer from your computer, move the printer to a different location to try to get a better signal strength or signal quality. This situation could also indicate that the printer is associated with, but not authenticated with, your access point.

NOISE LEVEL This number indicates any electrical interference with the wireless

signal. If your printer cannot communicate with the network and the noise level

is high, move the printer to a location that is free of interference.

Determining the Active Print Server

Most printers can have wired and wireless print servers installed at the same time. However, only one of the installed print servers can be active at any given time.

Viewing IP Addresses and the Active Print Server

The wired and wireless print servers have different IP addresses. The printer’s control panel displays the IP address of the active print server (see View Wir eless Status through the Control

Panel on page 52). You can view the printer’s web pages and send label formats to the printer

through the active print server’s IP address. The network configuration label (Figure 12) displays the IP addresses of all installed print

server devices and indicates the active print server with an asterisk (circled in Figure 12). To print a network configuration label for wired print servers, see Printing a Network

Configuration Label — Internal ZebraNet 10/100 Print Server and Wireless Print Servers on page 46 or for wireless print servers, see Configuration of Wireless Securities on page 51.

Then…

Only one print server (wired or wireless) can be installed at a time. Thus, the print server installed is the primary print server.

You may select which installed device is the primary network device. The printer will try to use the primary network device as the active print server before trying the other installed options.

These printers and print engines use X60.16.x or later firmware. The default for the printer is to

skip the check for a wired print server during bootup. This makes the wireless print server the primary network device if a wireless print server is installed. To change this default and allow the wired print server to be the primary network device when it is connected, use one of the following methods to tell the printer to check for a wired print server at bootup time:

• the WIRED PS CHECK parameter on the control panel

• the ^NB ZPL command

Table 14 identifies which device becomes the active print server

under various conditions.

• ZM400

• ZM600

• ZT410

• ZT420

• RZ400

• RZ600

• ZE500

• 105SLPlus

These printers support the simultaneous installation of an internal, external, and a wireless print server. Even though all three print servers may be installed, only one is connected to the network and is the active print server.

Table 15 outlines priorities and identifies which device becomes

the active print server when multiple print servers are installed. You may select whether the wired or wireless print server will be

the primary connection by using one of the following methods:

• the PRIMARY NETWORK parameter on the control panel

• the ^NC ZPL command

Assigning an IP Address on any Print Server

Before you can begin working with a print server, you must get or assign an IP address for the print server device.

The four different ways to assign an IP address are:

• DHCP

• ZebraNet Bridge

• Printer Control Panel/LCD

• Telnet

Important • For specific information on the default User ID and/or default password, see

Default User ID and Password on page 43.

With Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)

If your network uses DHCP, your print server device is assigned a temporary IP address.

Note • Check with your Network Administrator to see whether your network uses DHCP.

Assigning an IP Address Without DHCP via ZebraNet Bridge

ZebraNet Bridge may be used to set the IP address. Refer to the ZebraNet Bridge Enterprise User Guide for more detailed information.

P1043301-005 11/21/13

Page 59

Getting Started

Assigning an IP Address on any Print Server

Assigning an IP address Without DHCP from the Control Panel

These steps can be used with all printers with a control panel.

To assign an IP address from the control panel (or LCD), complete these steps:

Important • Your ZebraNet 10/100 Print Server must have firmware 1.xx.x and higher and

your Zebra printer must have firmware x.10 or higher with a control panel.

1. Turn on (I) the printer and wait until the control panel says PRINTER READY.

2. See Wired Network Parameters on the LCD on page 126 or Wireless Network Parameters

on the LCD on page 129 for specific print server menu options or your printer’s user guide

for specific instructions on the operation of your printer.

3. You may edit any of the following network settings in order to communicate with any

print server in your network environment.

Important • To change any of these settings, you need to enter the printer password. The

default password is

1234.

• ip resolution (dynamic, permanent) The printer menu item IP RESOLUTION must be set to PERMANENT if attempting to assign the IP address from the control panel.

• default gateway (default setting of 000.000.000.000)

• subnet mask (default setting 255.0.0.0)

• ip address (if initial default setting is 0.0.0.0, after 2 minutes this defaults to

192.168.254.254

• ip protocol (gleaning only, RARP, BOOTP, DHCP, DHCP and BOOTP, all)

11/21/13 P1043301-005

Getting Started

Assigning an IP Address on any Print Server

Assigning an IP Address Without DHCP via a Telnet Session

The methods used for assigning an IP address with a Telnet session are Static Route and Gleaning.

Important • This applies to any TCP/IP capable workstation/host networked with the Zebra

printer. Both, the workstation/host and the print server, must be on the same network segment.

Before you can Telnet to the print server and configure it, you must first assign the print server a temporary IP address.

Static Route

To use this method, complete these steps:

1. Turn on (I) the printer and wait for 2 minutes to allow for the device to complete the

self-test. During this time, the print server performs an address broadcast. If no address is assigned

to the unit (via DHCP or BootP), it uses a default address. The default address for print server is 192.168.254.254. Print the print server configuration label to confirm the address. For details, see Before You Begin on page 43.

2. You can use the route add command to place the default IP address into the

workstation's network routing table.

3. At the workstation/host command prompt (in Windows, at the DOS prompt), type:

route add **** "IP address of the workstation" 0

where **** is the IP address on any print server configuration label

Note • The zero (0) placed at the end of the “route add” command is optional on some

systems.

4. Telnet to the print server by typing:

"Telnet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" The password is 1234.

5. At this point, you can alter the settings as desired. When complete, do a reset and allow

the print server self-test to complete before proceeding with any communications activity .

P1043301-005 11/21/13

Page 61

Gleaning

A method by which the print server uses the IP address of the first ping packet that is sent to its hardware address.

Note • Gleaning works only on local subnets at routers. It does not pass Address Resolution

Protocol (ARP) broadcasts.

To use this method, complete these steps:

1. Add an entry to the ARP table that assigns an IP address to an Ethernet (hardware)

address. The syntax for this command is:

arp -s <temporary ip address> <MAC Address>

Example • You would type: arp -s 10.3.50.59 00-07-4d-1D-B9-86

2. Power cycle the printer.

Getting Started

Assigning an IP Address on any Print Server

3. As the printer reboots, begin a continuous ping to the address assigned previously.

Note • Most UNIX systems use a continuous ping.

To use a continuous ping from a Windows host, you must issue the following command:

ping -t "ipaddress"

4. When the print server begins to respond, stop the ping activity.

In Windows,

5. T elnet to the print server and assign the appropriate IP address, subnet mask, and gateway,

Ctrl + C halts the pinging.

if applicable.

6. Once this is complete, reset the print server.

Setting and Monitoring Alerts on Any Print Server

It is important to understand the relationship between the print server and the printer when you are establishing alerts. Here are the relationships you need to be aware of:

• Non-ZebraLink-enabled printers — can only send alerts on a specific set of printer errors that are reported in the IEEE 1284 protocol.

• ZebraLink-enabled printers — ZebraLink allows for the printer to send alerts outside of the IEEE 1284 protocol.

ZebraLink Alerts

ZebraLink Alerts give you the ability to manage your Zebra printers by immediately notifying System Administrators of printer error or warning conditions, which reduces printer downtime and increases application efficiency. Using Web-based configuration tools, selected errors or warning conditions can be routed to a variety of destinations such as email messages, wireless pagers, or ZebraLink Alerts.

Table 16 on page 65 shows the conditions that can trigger alerts and the possible destinations.

Printing Queues

Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD)-Style Print Queue

BSD is a version of the UNIX OS that distributes software that includes TCP/IP.

Configuring the Print Queue

For remote BSD-style LPD printing, add the print server as a remote printer in the /etc/printcap database to each host printing to any print server. You can add printcap options as needed. If you are unfamiliar with these options, consult the printer documentation.

Important • You must be logged in as root.

The entry looks similar to this:

local_print_queue_name|[printer_model_and_manufacturer]:\ :lp=:mx#0:rm=ZebraNet_name:\ :rp=remote_print_queue_name:\ :sd=path_to_spool_directory:lf=just log_file_name

local_print_queue_name — This defines the name of the printcap entry. It is used by

the LPR/LPD utilities to specify which printcap entry is being referenced. Additional printcap entries can be added as needed for different queue types. Each entry must have a unique local_print_queue_name and a different spool directory to work properly. When you are ready to print, use the local_print_queue_name that matches the data type of the file to be printed.

ZebraNet_name — This is the name (alias) of the ZebraNet print server. This must be the same name as entered in the /etc/ hosts file or your NIS or DNS system. An IP address may also be used here.

remote_print_queue_name — This entry determines the ZebraNet port where the print job will be printed and optionally specifies ASCII printing that must end for LF1.

path_to_spool_directory — This is the path to a directory where the print jobs will be spooled for this queue. You must create a unique spool directory for each printcap entry.

log_file_name — This is the path to a file where error information from the LPD will be logged.

Example • Your printcap entries might look similar to this:

Ascii_files|form.feed.Queue_on_Port_1:\ :lp=:mx#0:rm=pserver1:rp=MYQUEUELF1:\ :sd=/usr/spool/myqueuelf1:\

:lf=/usr/spool/myqueuelf1/queue.log

Important • Each printcap entry must have a different spool directory to work properly.

Configuring Operating System V Queue for ZebraNet Printing

This section describes the configuration of the printing system on the UNIX operating system. For clarity and brevity, the following specific names are used to represent general devices or concepts.

lj4 — The local queue name on the UNIX system to which you want print server print jobs directed.

ZEBRAPRINTER — The host name or IP address of the remote system that is the print server device. For example, to Telnet to any print server and invoke the print server configuration utility, you would enter:

Telnet ZEBRAPRINTER

A host name is not required for the print server — the IP address can be used. yourqueuename — This is the name of the queue on the ZebraNet and must end with LF1.

Printing Queues

Prerequisites

Before you proceed, the following prerequisites must be met:

• The name ZEBRAPRINTER and the IP address assigned to the print server are in the /etc/hosts file on the UNIX system.

• The LPD must be running on the UNIX system.

UNIX Configuration

To configure the UNIX machine so users can spool print jobs to the PCL print queue on the ZebraNet named ZEBRAPRINTER, complete these steps:

1. Log in to the UNIX machine as root.

2. Type:

lpsystem -t bsd ZEBRAPRINTER

3. Type:

lpadmin -p lj4 -s ZEBRAPRINTER!yourqueuename - I any

4. Type:

accept lj4

5. Type:

enable lj4

6. Try printing by typing the command:

lp -d lj4 [filename]

Using Printing Protocols

IPP

To set up your 10/100 Print Server to support IPP, complete these steps:

Important • You must have IPP support on your system.

Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) is an application-level protocol used for distributed printing over the Internet. Using IPP from any standard IPP client, you can transfer jobs to a printer that is connected to either your external ZebraNet 10/100 Print Server or your internal ZebraNet 10/100 Print Server for S4M, 105SL, PAX4, and XiIIIPlus.

Important • IPP support is not available on all 10/100 Internal Print Server printers. To be

certain you are running the latest version of firmware, visit http://www.zebra.com.

1. Open a browser.

2. Enter the 10/100 Print Server IPP URL as follows:

http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:631/ipp/port1 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx = the IP address of the 10/100 print server device :631 = a fixed value /ipp = a fixed string designating IPP /port1 = a fixed value

Example • Your address might look like this:

http:198.60.248.120:631/ipp/port1

FTP

Using Printing Protocols

Embedded within the print server is an FTP server application that processes file transfers from a host computer to the printer.

If the printer is on a network, label formats can be generated and data can be transferred without setting up a print queue.

To send information to the printer, perform these steps:

1. Open a command prompt and type:

ftp <IP of PS>

Example • If the IP address of your print server device is 12.3.4.123, you would

type:

ftp 12.3.4.123

This opens a session with the FTP server.

FTP

2. Type your user name and press Enter.

Note • By default, there is no user name.

3. Type:

put < filename>

where filename is the location and filename of your ZPL script

This transfers the file to the printer, and the printer generates a label.

4. To terminate the FTP session, type:

quit
