operation may be any string up to 32 characters long.
MODE – This operation sets the operating mode of the printer.
The two options are LPD and TCP.
• LPD is the standard printer protocol used by Unix and avail-
able for Windows NT.
• TCP affords the ability to allow bare sends using only the
TCP protocol.
GET-STATUS – This operation causes the printer to report its
current WLAN status. The two options are PRINT and REPLY.
If PRINT is used, the status dump is printed. If REPLY is used,
the status dump is sent out over the CABLE. The status report
is of the following form:
LAN Status report:
ipAdr = nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn - a typical TCP/IP address.
userName = {the user name} - a descriptive username set in
the radio.
fwVersion = {LAN firmware version} - a descriptive firmware
version set in the radio.
swVersion = {LAN software version} - a descriptive software
version set in the radio.
MAC addr = {hh:hh:hh:hh:hh:hh}
associated = {link state} - YES (linked) or NO (not linked)
GET-CONFIG – This operation causes the printer to report its
current WLAN configuration. The two options are PRINT and
REPLY
• If PRINT is used, the configuration is printed.
• If REPLY is used, the configuration is sent out over the CABLE.
The configuration report is of the following form, similar to
the GET-STATUS report above:
LAN Config report:
ipAdr = nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn - a typical TCP/IP address.
powerMode = {power mode state} - SAVE or FULL
quiet = {quiet state} - YES or NO. YES means the radio
only transmits normal data, NO means the radio transmits link
status information on power up and status change.
protocol = {protocol selected}
essID = {SSID string}
DHCP = {DHCP state}
DHCP_SAVE = {DHCP_SAVE state}
SOFT_RESET – This operation resets the WLAN card. The
SOFT_RESET operation should be tried first if re-setting the
LAN card is desired, before using the RESET operation.
RESET – This operation performs a “hard” reset of the WLAN
card.
DHCP – This operation allows for control over setting of the
WLAN card’s IP address. The options for this operation are
enabled (ON) or disabled (OFF). If DHCP is enabled, the WLAN
card will attempt to obtain an IP address from a DHCP server.
If DHCP is disabled, the WLAN card will use the IP address
programmed into its non-volatile storage.
Syntax: DHCP {option}
Where {option} = ON or OFF
Example: ! U1 LAN DHCP ON
DHCP-SAVE – This operation controls the storage of addresses
obtained by DHCP. If ON, a new address obtained from DHCP
will be stored. If OFF, the new address will be used for this ses-
sion only, leaving the previously stored address unchanged.
Syntax: DHCP-SAVE {option}
Where {option} = ON or OFF
Example:
! U1 LAN DHCP-SAVE ON
DHCP-TIMEOUT – This operation allows for control of number of
times the DHCP client will attempt to obtain an address from
the DHCP server. The argument is the number of times the
client will make a request before giving up. The client can be
told to never give up by making the argument 0.
