Chapter 2 Installation and Configuration
Unix Host Configuration
The IOPRINT+ Print Server must be provided with a IP Address so that it will be a valid
device on the LAN. This can be done using either Static or Dynamic IP Address
configuration.
Static IP Address Configuration
1. Determine the Physical Address of the IOPRINT+ Print Server from the default name
shown on a sticker on the base of the unit.
• The default name is in the form SCxxyyzz (SC followed by 6 numbers).
•The Physical Address of the device is formed by joining "00:c0:02:" to the digits in
the default name.
For example, a name of SC123456 means the physical address is
00:c0:02:12:34:56.
2. Login to the UNIX host as root.
3. Add the IOPRINT+ Print Server to the /etc/hosts file by adding the following line to the file:
IP_Address NAME # comment
Where:
IP_Address is the IP address for the IOPRINT+ Print Server. This address must match
the address stored in the device.
NAME is the IOPRINT+ Print Server's name. This must match the name stored in the
device.
# comment. Add the Default Name as a comment.
Example:
192.10.2.54 PS_Rm203 #Default name SC123456
In the example above, SC123456 is assigned the IP address 192.10.2.54 and the name
"PS_Rm203".
4. Associate the physical address with the IP address of the IOPRINT+ Print Server, by
using the arp command as follows:
arp -s NAME 00:c0:02:xx:yy:zz
Where:
NAME is the name assigned to the device
00:c0:02:xx:yy:zz is the physical address of the IOPRINT+ Print Server, as determined
from the default name.
Example:
arp -s PS_Rm203 00:c0:02:12:34:56
