2.4 MAC address
• Generated from the printer’s serial number with the Evolis 00-1A-FD header (Evolis OUI - Organisationally
Unique Identier).
• For example, for the serial number P07100001234, the MAC address is 00-01-FD-00-04-D2.
• 00-04-D2 is the hexadecimal transcription of the decimal value 001234.
MAC address is visible beneath the printer
2.5 Hostname
The printer name (hostname) is automatically set as EVO_NNN_XXXXXXX, where:
• EVO is the root for Evolis products
• NNN varies with the printer model:
° PR1 for Primacy
° ZE1 for Zenius
• XXXXXXX is obtained from the printer’s serial number, e.g. EVO_PR1_0001234 for serial number
Z710001234
Hostnames are used by various naming systems. Evolis limits the hostname to 15 characters according
to the Windows Netbios limitations: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/909264/en-us
2.6 IGMP
Evolis uses IGMP frame to send query to all printers connected to the network. To use the discovery
services offered by the Evolis Premium Suite, it is important that the network gateways support IGMP
frames. To route Multicast trafc between two LANs, the gateway requires PIM Dense or PIM Sparse
mode.
Example for Windows Server 2003: http://www.labo-microsoft.org/articles/win/rad2003/7
The default Evolis Multicast address is 224.69.86.79.
