5. Enter the IP address to be assigned to the
Network Interface Module. Enter the IP address of
the printer. This must be the same IP address used
above for configuring the printer port. The prompt
will show the default address of the module. Check
with your system administrator for the proper
address. In the example below, the IP address has
been set to 192.168.1.200.
6. Enter the Subnet Mask and Gateway Address.
The Subnet Mask is required for the Network
Interface Module to operate properly. The Gateway
is optional and is used when the imager will be
accessed from a network location that is not on the
local subnet. Refer to the example below for how
this information is entered.
7. Confirm that the Network Interface Module was
set up properly. After all the network parameters
have been entered in the set-ep1000.exe program,
the Network Interface Module will be programmed
and the parameters will be re-read from the
module to confirm the module was programmed
properly. Type “exit” to close the Command
Prompt window.
Configure the Printer
1. Select Parallel Port at the Printer. Printing is done
over the network, but the network interface
module uses the parallel port of the EP-1000.
Therefore to print, the EP-1000 must be on-line and
the Parallel port must be selected.
Use the ONLINE button on the EP-1000 (see below)
to toggle between on-line and off-line. When off-
line, the selected port LED to the right will be
flashing. When on-line, it will be on continuously.
When off-line, use the INTERFACE button to select
the correct interface.
For Windows printing to an EP-1000, the parallel
interface must be selected and the printer must be
on-line. The upper interface LED must be lighted
continuously as shown above.
2. Create a Test Print. The best way to test the
operation of the EP-1000 is to print from an
application program running on the Windows NT
4.0 system. Alternatively, a Windows test print can
be sent by the following method:
◆ Click start ->Control Panel.
◆ Double-Click on “Printers.”
◆ Right click on “Codonics EP-1000” icon.
◆ Left click on the “Properties” option.
