Chapter 2 — Connecting the Printer
PX4i and PX6i High Performance Printer User’s Manual 65
To set up the printer for 802.11 communications using HyperTerminal
1 Connect one end of the serial cable to your printer, and connect
the other end to your PC.
2 On your PC, open HyperTerminal and set these serial port
parameters:
3 From the host PC, check the wireless settings. For help, see
“Manually Configuring IP Settings” on page 62.
If you are running IPL, send this command to the printer:
<STX><SI>wt<ETX>
If you are running Fingerprint, send these commands to the
printer:
setup write "wlan","uart1:"
setup write "8021x","uart1:"
4 Configure your printer to use the correct SSID and authentication
modes. For help, see the next section, “Configuring 802.11
Wireless Security Using IPL” or “Configuring 802.11 Wireless
Security Using Fingerprint” on page 66.
5 If you are using certificates for validation, Intermec recommends
testing first without the certificate. Only after performing this test
should you transfer the certificate to the printer. The printer can
accept PEM (.pem), DER (.der), and PKCS #12 (.p12 or .pfx)
certificates.
6 Verify that the printer is connected to the access point and make
sure it has an IP address allocated to it.
Use the following sections to set most of your wireless
communication settings. For more information, see the Intermec
Fingerprint Command Reference Manual or the IPL Command
Reference Manual.
