Chapter 5 Windows Peer-to-Peer Printing 5.1 Windows IPX Peer-to-Peer Printing Windows Peer-to-Peer printing allows Windows-95/98 workstations and Windows NT 4.0 workstations and servers to print to Network Interface Board printers without an intervening file server and without using IP. The main features of the Windows IPX Peer-to-Peer printing are as follows: 5.1.1 Ÿ Runs on Windows 95/98 workstations and on Windows NT 4.0 workstations or servers "out of the box".
If the NIB does not see any Novell activity, it will use 802.2 on 802.3 as a frame type and will assign itself a network number of 0. The frame type and network number being used is reported on the status and configuration sheet. If a NIB is being moved from a site that had active Novell to a site that does not, the unit should be reset to factory default to clear the frame type and network number information. 5.1.2 Installation and Operation Install the Windows IPX Peer-to-Peer redirector as follows: 1.
5.2.1 Introduction and Preparation The Peer-to-Peer implementation uses the TCP/IP stacks that are provided with Windows 95/98 or Windows NT 4.0. The redirector software provided will establish a connection with the printers supporting Peer-to-Peer, using a direct IP connection over the network. When configuring the network capabilities for the Windows computer, you must include the "TCP/IP Protocol". You do not need to activate any TCI/IP Client application.
Chapter 6 AppleTalk Configuration Use this chapter if you will be printing from a Macintosh. This chapter explains how to configure the Network Interface Board using AppleTalk. 6.1 Choosing the Printer To choose the printer, use the following procedure: 1. Make sure you have loaded the print driver and PPD file appropriate to your printer. 2. Make sure you have selected Ethernet as the AppleTalk connection. 3. Click on the Apple icon. 4. Select Chooser to display the Chooser screen. 5.
Chapter 7 TCP/IP Configuration This chapter explains how to configure the Network Interface Board and your network for use with TCP/IP communication in various environments. Independent setup and installation procedures are provided for Windows systems and for most popular UNIX systems. The Network Interface Board TCP/IP capability will also operate with lpr spoolers on other systems, and with spooler/supervisor capabilities that communicate raw print jobs to the Print Server TCP/IP Port.
7.1.1.1 Installing TCP/IP Follow the instructions for the TCP/IP package of your choice to set up the TCP/IP on the workstations. 7.1.1.2 Loading the lpr Spooler Follow the instructions for the lpr spooler of your choice to set up the spooler on the workstations. 7.1.1.3 Setting up the Network Interface Board The Network Interface Board must be given IP address and routing information to be used with TCP/IP. This can be done with either the ARP procedure or the BOOTP Lite program.
YYY.YYY.YYY.YYY: IP address of Network Interface Board Continue until you get a reply. Note: This only enters the IP address; you must use the Telnet facility or the HTML pages accessed by a Web Browser to complete the IP setup for networks where subnets are used. See 7.6 Running Telnet, for instructions on how to enter the other IP parameters. 7.1.1.5 Assigning IP Address with BOOTP Lite This program uses the BOOTP protocol.
2. Turn off the protocols that you are not utilizing (option 3). 3. Setup the subnet mask and default gateway for the Network Interface Board if applicable (menu option 1). (If you used BOOTP, this will already have been done). 4. Exit, Save and Reset the Network Interface Board. You can also use the “User Tools” menu on the operator panel, the HTML pages accessible via a Web Browser to setup lpr. The password to change parameters with the HTML pages is the same as the Telnet password. 7.1.1.
XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX: any valid IP address on your network - not the print server The identified unit should reply. arp -s YYY.YYY.YYY.YYY 00-40-af-ZZ-ZZ-ZZ YYY.YYY.YYY.YYY: IP address of the Network Interface Board 00-40-af-ZZ-ZZ-ZZ: MAC Address of the Network Interface Board The entry should be accepted ping YYY.YYY.YYY.YYY YYY.YYY.YYY.YYY: IP address of the Network Interface Board Request should time out. 2. Recycle the power on the printer, or let the Network Interface Board reset itself.
6. Wait about five minutes. The Network Interface Board should recycle and produce a status sheet showing the IP parameters you have just entered. 7. Pull down Admin menu to Verify. You should get a message back stating that the Unit is Active. If you do not get this message, verify that TCP/IP is enabled on the status sheet. 8. When you get a response that your unit is active, you should be able to ping and Telnet to the Network Interface Board. 7.1.2.
If the unit already has an IP address, these procedures will not work. However, you can TELNET to the unit to change the IP parameters. 7.1.3.2 Assigning IP Address with ARP The Network Interface Board must be on the same network segment as the workstation that you are using to configure it. The TCP/IP stack must be installed and operating. You can use BOOTPL32 to configure the IP address instead of ARP. 1. From Windows, enter the MS/DOS box. At the command prompt enter: ping XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX XXX.XXX.XXX.
2. Double-click on the BOOTPL32 icon to start the program. 3. Pull down the Admin menu to Configure option. 4. Enter the IP address that you want to assign to the Network Interface Board, its Subnet Mask (make sure it matches what you are using on your subnet), Default Gateway (your router's IP address), and the MAC address of the Network Interface Board (Hardware Address, listed on the Status sheet as Ethernet Address).
8. In the Print To dialog, choose Other. 9. In Print Destinations window, select lpr port. This leaves you with add lpr compatible printer window. 10. Line 1: Address of host providing lpd (Print server); enter IP address. 11. Line 2: Name of printer on that machine - enter PORT1 (the word PORT MUST be in uppercase). 12. Choose [OK] to exit. Your Network Interface Board is now configured to operate Windows NT.
7.3 IP Peer to Peer Printing This section explains how to setup and use IP Peer-to-Peer Printing. This allows you to set up your print server ports for peer to peer printing for IP, Windows NT4.0 , and Windows 95/98. 7.3.1 How to Install Place the CD-ROM into a CD-ROM drive. 1. In Windows 95/98, go to START and then RUN. 2. Run the SETUP.EXE program in the IP-P2P directory on the CD-ROM and click on OK when done. 3. Follow the program prompts. 7.3.
2. Press the [Printer...] button; a new form screen appears. 3. Enter information for the printer in all the fields described on the form. Field Description IP Address Enter the IP address of the printer you want to add. Name Assign a name to the printer. You can enter any name which you feel identifies the printer. Port Number The port number of the printer. The default is 10001. Description Use this field to describe the printer location or the users who will access the printer. 4.
HTML setup pages accessed by MAP or a Web Browser. Remember, the actual port is always one higher than the base port number. The Status and Configuration page indicates the actual port number. 7.4.1 Configuring the IP Address on the Network Interface Board The Network Interface Board must be given IP address and routing parameters. You can configure the IP address for the Network Interface Board in one of the following ways: Ÿ Use MAP, as described in Chapter 3.
:sm = subnet mask:\ :gw = gateway address: For example, for an RFC 1048 system: printfast:\ :ht = ether:\ :ha = 0040AF03AF6E:\ :ip = 192.9.200.200:\ :sm = 255.0.0.0:\ :gw = 192.9.200.10:\ If running with a more recent BOOTP implementation, such as with SCO UNIX, add: :vm = rfc1048: Note: The :ht = ether command should always be used. The same information uses the following format on an RFC 951 "RFC 951" system: Host Printfast htype 1 Haddr 00:40:af:03:af:6e iaddr 192.9.200.
2. Log in as superuser on the rarp server. However, if the server resides on another subnet, complete this procedure to store the IP address in the print server. Reconnect the print server anywhere on the network, and then use the Telnet or the HTML pages accessed by MAP or a Web Browser to adjust the IP parameters for the subnet on which the Network Interface Board is to operate. 3. Find the Ethernet address of the Network Interface Board.
print server with a name of printfast and an IP address of 192.9.200.200 has the following entry: 192.9.200.200 printfast 5. Add an entry to the arp cache for the Print Server's IP address and Ethernet address. For example: arp -s 192.9.200.200 0:40:c8:0:0:ff 6. Check the printer to see that the Print Server is connected to the network. Turn on the printer. 7. Send a ping command the Network Interface Board to verify it is running on the network. For example: ping 192.9.200.
7.4.2.1 Setting Up a BSD Remote Printer to Use lpd/ To set up a remote printer on the host that sends jobs to Network Interface Board using printer resident lpd, add an entry to the /etc/printcap file on your host for each printer you use.
