Customer Site – Set Up Time Server Connection
3. Time servers provide time in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) also known as Greenwich
Mean Time (GMT). The time provided by the time server should be converted to the local
printer time. Set the local time adjustment as follows:
Pacific Standard Time - 8 hours Central Standard Time - 6 hours
Pacific Daylight Time - 7 hours Central Daylight Time - 5 hours
Mountain Standard Time - 7 hours Eastern Standard Time - 5 hours
Mountain Daylight Time - 6 hours Eastern Daylight Time - 4 hours
4. If using NetWare to provide time services, click the NetWare radio button. Otherwise, click the
SNTP radio button.
• If there is a time server available on the customer's network enter its IP address, otherwise
• Enter the IP address of an Internet time server.
A list of publicly available time servers is available at:
http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~mills/ntp/clock2a.html
.
For our example, the IP address 207.126.97.57 is used from the following entry in the
public time server list:
US CA ntp1.sf-bay.org (207.126.97.57)
Location: San Jose, CA
Synchronization: NTP secondary (stratum 2), FreeBSD
Service Area: North America: Northern California and Pacific Northwest
Access Policy: open access, please send a message to notify
Contact: Scott Hazen Mueller (clockmaster@sf-bay.org)
Note the time server access policy. Most providers request that you send an e-mail to the
time server administrator notifying them of your usage.
TIP: If the DNS server is set on the IB-21E TCP/IP Protocol page, then the time server name
(ntp1.sf-bay.org) may be used instead of the IP address.
5. Click Submit to send the settings to the IB-21E. Wait a minute or two for the page to refresh. If
the printer made a successful connection to the time server, the current date and time will be
displayed.
