5 PREREQUISITES
The AWS must have been correctly installed and configured.
The local network must have been correctly installed, and the Network Printers to be declared must have
been correctly installed and connected to the Network.
5-1 Determine the Printer Hostname and AET
When configuring a printer, the Hostname and Application Entity Title (AET) that you specify on ADS,
must be the same as the hostname and AET configured on the printer by the printer manufacturer field
engineer.
The settings in section 7, Printer Parameters describe the default (usual) hostname and AET settings for
each printer. However, check with the printer manufacturer field engineer the value of the hostname and
AET that was set on the printer, and ensure that you use these same values when configuring the printer
on the GE system.
5-2 GE Equipment Hostname Declaration on the Printer
The hostname (in DICOM format) of the GE system must be declared on the printer so that it is permitted
to print images to the printer. Work with the printer manufacturer field engineer to ensure that the GE
system has been added to the permitted hosts list of the printer. The format of the hostname (in DICOM
format) that needs adding to the printer is PR_<hostname>, where <hostname> is the hostname defined
on the GE system. For example, if the hostname of the ADS workstation on a Senographe Essential sys-
tem is called adsB, the hostname added to the permitted hosts list of the printer is PR_adsB.
5-3 Printer IP Address and Port Number
Ensure that the following information is available before starting to install printers:
• IP address and Hostname of Network printers. This information can be obtained either from the Net-
work Administrator of the Hospital, or from the Needs assessment Form completed by the Network
Champions.
• DICOM Port number of Network printers. This information can be obtained from the Printer Supplier.
