LAN Installation
To install your IOPRINT+ Print Server in your LAN, follow the procedure below:
1. Find the Default IOPRINT+ Print Server Name
The default name is located on a bar code sticker attached to the bottom of the IOPRINT+
Print Server unit. It will be in the form SCxxxxxx (SC followed by 6 digits).
2. Record this name; it will be needed during configuration.
3. Connect the printer or plotter cable(s) to the appropriate port(s) on the IOPRINT+ Print
Server unit. Parallel port cables should be less than 3 meters long.
4. Connect the network cable (BNC or UTP) to the proper connector on the IOPRINT+ Print
Server. The IOPRINT+ Print Server will automatically recognize whichever connector is
used.
5. Plug in the power adapter cable.
6. If your model supports 10BaseT and 100BaseT, check the 10/100BaseT link LED next to
the LAN connection.
7. If the auto negotiation fails, the 10/100BaseT Link LED will not light when the device is
powered up. In this case, check the cable, then press the reset button.
8. If the 10/100BaseT Link LED still does not light, disable the auto negotiation function and
manually set switches 2 and 3, as described in the documentation for your model.
Note
During configuration you will be able to change the device name. The new name
MUST NOT contain any spaces or blanks.
Note
Leave the IOPRINT+ Print Server powered OFF while connecting it to the
Printer(s) and the LAN.
Note
If your IOPRINT+ Print Server has both BNC and UTP connectors, you can use
only ONE (1) of these LAN connectors.
