LAN Installation

This chapter describes how to install the Print Server in your Local Area Network.

Procedure

1. Preparation

• Ensure the power is OFF. Do not connect the Print Server while power is On.

• Find the Default Server Name for your Print Server. The Default Server Name is shown on

a sticker on the base of the device. It consists of 8 letters and/or digits. Record this name; it

may be needed during configuration.

2. Connect the Printer

Use the cable supplied with your printer to connect the printer to the USB port on the Print

Server unit.

3. Connect the Network Cable

Connect the network cable to the 10/100BaseT LAN connector on the Print Server.

• To use the LAN interface, the LAN cable needs to be

inserted BEFORE powering ON.

• The Wired (LAN) interface should be used for initial

configuration.

• In the default Wireless "Infrastructure" mode, connecting a

LAN cable will disable the Wireless interface. To use both

the LAN and Wireless interfaces, the Wireless mode must

be changed to "Ad-hoc".

4. Power Up

Plug in the power adapter cable and power up. Start-up will take only a few seconds.

Use only the Power Supply unit provided with the Print Server. Using a different Power

Supply may cause damage.

5. Check the LEDs

• The Error LED should flash, then turn Off. When the Error LED goes off and the Status

LED remains lit or flashes, the Print Server is ready.

• The Error LED will remain flashing if the Print Server can't connect to the USB printer.
