Network Configuration Setup
•
It is recommended that you use the ZebraNet View for IP or the ZebraNet View for
Novell utilities to setup and configure your PrintServer II on either a TCP/IP or
Novell network respectively. These utilities are included on the diskettes included
with this product. Please refer to the on-line documentation for more information.
See the description below.
•
You may use either HP JetAdmin or HP Web JetAdmin software, or either TCP/IP
or Novell networks to control the PrintServer II.
•
You may use a standard Web Browser to setup and manage your PrintServer II after
you assign it a TCP/IP address using either HP JetAdmin or the ZebraNet View
utility. (Simply type: http:\\ip address
- i.e. http:\\129.47.8.203.) Refer to Figure 5 for
an example of the ZebraNet Web-view window.
•
You can also Telnet into the PrintServer II after you assign it a TCP/IP address.
NOTE: For any of the four methods mentioned above, to log into the
PrintServer II as an Administrator, use the following log-in information:
Login: admin
(must be lower case) Password: 1234.
Configuring a BSD-Style Print Queue
For remote BSD-Style LPD printing, add the ZebraNet as a remote printer in the
“/etc/printcap” database to each host printing to the ZebraNet. You can add PRINTCAP
options as needed. If you are unfamiliar with PRINTCAP, consult your local documentation.
The entry should be similar to the following:
local_print_queue_name|[printer_model_and_manufacturer]:\
:lp=:mx#0:rm=ZebraNet_name:\
:rp=remote_print_queue_name:\
:sd=path_to_spool_directory:lf=just log_file_name
local_print_queue_name – The local_print_queue_name defines the name of the
printcap entry. It is used by the lpr/lpd utilities to specify which printcap entry is being
referenced. Additional printcap entries can be added as needed for different queue types.
Each entry must have a unique local_print_queue_name and a different spool directory to
work properly. When you are ready to print, use the local_print_queue_name that matches
the data type of the file to be printed.
ZebraNet_name – This is the name (alias) of the ZebraNet. This must be the
same name as entered in the /etc/hosts file or your NIS or DNS system. An IP address may
also be used here.
remote_print_queue_name – The remote_print_queue_name entry determines the
ZebraNet port where the print job will be printed and optionally specifies ASCII printing.
