Introduction

Overview

Support

The print server is an optional factory- or field-installed device that connects the network and your ZebraLink-enabled printer. The print server provides you with a web browser as a user interface for printer and print server settings. If you use the ZebraNet Bridge, you can easily access the specialized features of a ZebraLink-enabled printer. For details, see the ZebraNet Bridge Enterprise User Guide.

Important • You can download the most recent version of ZebraNet Bridge Enterprise from

www.zebra.com/utilities.

This section lists the minimum requirements for print servers, which include browsers, supported services, address administration protocols, hardware, and firmware.

P1043301-005 11/21/13

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.

Introduction

Supported Security Types

Your WLAN can use any of a number of different types of security and encryption, or it can use none at all. This section shows which security types you can use with the various ZebraNet wireless print servers.

Note • Configuring a printer for WPA also allows the printer to be used in WPA2

environments.

Printer Requirements

Memory Requirements

PCMCIA and Compact Flash Memory Cards PCMCIA memory or Compact Flash

memory cards will not work and are not supported on the Wireless Plus Print Server. The Internal Wireless Plus Print Server and the b/g Print Server do not include a slot for these card types.

Wireless Card Socket Option The ZebraNet wireless print server options replace the Wireless Card Socket Option (WCSO) in 105SL printers with a serial number of 6400357 or greater. Do not install a wireless option board on a 105SL printer with a serial number that is less than 6400357.

Wireless Option Board A special wireless option board must be installed in your printer/print engine. To determine if you have a wireless option board installed, use a printer configuration label (refer to the “Printing Configuration Labels” section in your User Guide). To purchase a wireless option, contact your authorized Zebra reseller for more information.

The wireless option boards are identified by the HARDWARE ID line on the printer configuration label.

The part numbers shown on the HARDWARE ID line indicate the wireless print servers as shown in Table 6.

Firmware — 10/100 Print Server

The S4M printers and all external print servers are available with several versions of print server firmware. PAX4, 105SL, XiIIIPlus printers will use print server firmware version 1.01.x.

To determine the proper firmware version, first determine your hardware version.

To locate your hardware version, perform the following:

1. Which type of printer and print server do you have?

If you have… Then…
