Configuration and Management The print server can be configured and managed from its internal Web pages, using HTTP as well as HTTPS in the secure mode. These Web pages offer you a platform independent management tool that is suitable for all supported network environments. See Using a Web Browser for Print Server Management, on page 82 for details.

11 Features and Benefits Reliability The print server provides high performance and reliability combined with low power consumption. The electronic circuits are based on the AXIS ETRAX 100 LX chip, which comprises an integrated 32 bit RISC processor and associated network controllers. Flexibility The print server supports printing in all major computer systems and environments, including five different print methods in the TCP/IP environment. The integrated IPP (Internet Printing Protocol) function allows for printing from LAN to LAN via a WAN, such as the Internet. Speed The AXIS ETRAX 100 LX chip supports data transfer rates of up to 200 Mbit/s (100 Mbit Ethernet full duplex). Easy to Install The print server installs, operates and is managed in a reliable and easy fashion. Security You can assign a password to restrict login and printer access. It is also possible to disable protocols and to configure a secure mode (https). Monitoring The internal print server Web pages and AXIS ThinWizard (3.0 and up) allow you to continuously monitor printer status. The Web pages are used to monitor single Axis units while AXIS ThinWizard can be used to monitor multiple Axis units. Through e-mail notification, the printer administrator can be notified by e-mail whenever an event that requires human intervention occurs in a printer. The e-mail contains a short and concise description of the event. Future Proof The firmware stored in the print server Flash memory can be upgraded over the network. This allows you to quickly update and enhance its operational features when new print server software becomes available. NetWare Packet Signature The print server supports NetWare Packet Signature Level 1, 2, 3, which protects servers and clients using the NetWare Core Protocol™ services. NCP packet signature prevents packet forgery by requiring the server and the client to sign each NCP packet. See your Novell NetWare documentation for detailed information.

Section 3 Basic Installation Quick overview Follow these steps to make your printer network ready: 1. Connect the Hardware, on page 12 2. Assign an IP Address to the Print Server, on page 13 3. Making Network Printers available for printing on your PC, on page 17 Connect the Hardware 1. Make sure that the printer is switched off and that the Power Adapter is disconnected from the print server. 2. Locate the serial number, found on the underside label of the print server, and write it down. Example: S/N: 00408c181cf0 3. Connect the printer directly to a port on the print server or using an appropriate cable. 4. Connect the AXIS 5400+/AXIS 5600+ to your network (Ethernet Connector), using a twisted pair RJ45 category 5 cable. 5. Switch on the printer and make sure it is ready for printing (display showing “Online”, “Ready”, etc.) 6. Connect the Power Adapter to the print server. The Network Indicator will start flashing when the print server is correctly connected to the network. 7. Wait 1 minute and press the test button once. A test page will be printed on the connected printer — keep it handy during the installation. The test page will show the assigned IP address of the print server. Note: Print server’s IP address AXIS 5400+: the test page is printed on LPT1. AXIS 5600+: when all printer ports are attached to a printer, the test page is printed in this order: LPT1, COM1, LPT2.

13 Assign an IP Address to the Print Server Methods for Setting the IP Address You can obtain an IP address for your print server by using one of the following methods, depending on your network operating environment. See IP Addressing, on page 121 for detailed instructions on IP address management. Automatic IP Address Assignment Manual IP Address Assignment When assigning an IP address manually you need to know the Ethernet address of the print server. The Ethernet address is based on the print server’s serial number, found on its underside label. Example: A print server with the serial number 00408c181cf0 will have the Ethernet address 00 40 8c 18 1c f0.

This software is recommended for large organizations and ener- prise networks. “Using AXIS ThinWizard for Print Server Man- agement” on page 87

Notes: Automatic IP Address Assignment Obtain an IP Address with DHCP If you have a DHCP server on your network, your print server will automatically obtain an IP address when you connect it physically to the network. The IP address will appear on the test page that is printed when you press the test button once. Obtain an IP Address using BOOTP in UNIX/Linux Below is an example of how to set the IP address of the print server using BOOTP. Append the following entry to your boot table. This is typically performed by editing the file: /etc/bootptab Example: 1. If necessary, update your host table and alias name databases as required by your system. 2. If it is not already running, start the BOOTP daemon. This is typically performed using the bootpd command. 3. Restart the print server to download the IP address, default router address, and subnet mask. The print server can automatically download a customized config file from a TFTP server. Just add the name of the config file and the TFTP server’s IP address to your boot table. The config file is downloaded immediately after the print server receives its IP address. 4. You have now successfully set the IP address of the print server. Proceed to “Making Network Printers available for printing on your PC” on page 17. • The ability to set the IP address with ARP and PING will only be enabled the first 10 minutes after restarting the print server. • You need root privileges on your UNIX, Linux and Mac OS X system, or administrator privileges on a Windows NT server to set the IP address using RARP, BOOTP, DHCP and to add an entry to the ARP table with the command 'arp -s'. • When assigning an IP address manually, you must utilize a unique IP address that is not already in use in your network. :ht=:vm=:\ :ha=:ip=:\ :sm=:gw= npsname:ht=ether:vm=rfc1048:\ :ha=00408c100086:ip=192.168.3.191:\ :sm=255.255.255.0:gw=192.168.1.1

15 Obtain an IP Address using RARP in UNIX/Linux Follow the instructions below to set the IP address using RARP. Append the following line to your Ethernet Address table. This is typically located in the /etc/ethers file: Example: 1. Update, if necessary, your host table and alias name databases as required by your system. 2. If it is not already running, start the RARP daemon. This is typically performed using the rarpd -a command. 3. Restart the print server to download the IP address. 4. You have now set the IP address of the print server. Continue to “Making Network Printers available for printing on your PC” on page 17.

Notes: See Using AXIS ThinWizard for Print Server Management, on page 87 for instructions on setting IP addresses with AXIS ThinWizard. • When you execute the ping command for the first time, you will experience a significantly longer response time than is usual. • The ability to set the IP address with ARP and PING will only be enabled the first 10 minutes after restarting the print server. • By using the arp -d command, the static entry in the arp table is removed from the host’s cache memory. Syntax Example arp -s ping arp -s 192.168.3.191 00:40:8c:10:00:86 ping 192.168.3.191 • If the host name has not been mapped to an IP address, simply replace the host name entry with the IP address. • The ARP command varies between different UNIX/Linux systems. Some BSD type systems expect the host name and node address in reverse order. Furthermore IBM AIX systems will require the additional argument ether. • When you execute the ping command for the first time, you may experience a significantly longer response time than is usual. • The ability to set the IP address with ARP and PING will only be enabled the first 10 minutes after restarting the print server.

Refer to the table below to determine the most appropriate installation method according to your computer environment: If you intend to use the print server in a multi-protocol environment, refer to the chapters pertaining to the respective operating systems in this manual. Client/Server Network For client/server printing, each computer sends print jobs through a network server computer. The printer must first be installed on the server computer (from the Add Printer Wizard, AXIS Print Monitor) and then shared on the network, which makes it a network printer. It will then appear as a Network Printer (in Windows Add Printer Wizard and in AXIS Print Monitor) on the client computers. Each client computer must install the appropriate printer drivers in order to print properly. Peer-to-Peer Network In Peer-to-Peer networks, each computer prints directly to the network printer. The network printer appears as a Local Printer (in Windows Add Printer Wizard and in AXIS Print Monitor), and needs to be added to each client computer that wants to print.

AXIS 5400+ / AXIS 5600+ User’s Manual 37 Installation on Mac OS 9.1 or older, using AppleTalk Basic Configuration On Mac OS 9.1 or older, basic configuration in AppleTalk is performed simply by opening the Chooser window and selecting a printer. You can change the default name of your print server or any of default parameters by editing the print server’s config file. To access the config file from a Macintosh, you can use: • any Web browser with Javascript enabled • FTP using MacTCP, Fetch or Anarchie In order to use any of these methods, you must assign an IP address to the print server as described in “Setting Parameters” on page 39. Choosing a Printer Selecting a Printer The method for choosing a printer varies depending on which version of LaserWriter printer driver you are using. • The LaserWriter 7.0 driver assumes that you use a standard PostScript driver, and cannot take advantage of any printer specific features. • The LaserWriter 8.0 driver uses PPD files that contain printer descriptions. This gives you full control over any features your printer might have. Autodetect Printer Type The print server can automatically detect the type of printer you are using if you enable Autodetect Printer Type. The print server can then recognize Epson and Hewlett Packard InkJet printers. Most Epson and Hewlett Packard InkJet printers that have Mac OS printer drivers for network printing are supported. Without the Autodetect Printer Type function, the AppleTalk printer type has to be specified manually in the print server. For Epson InkJets it would be "EPSONLQ2" and for HP InkJets it would be "DeskWriter". If the print server does not recognize the connected printer, the default setting "LaserWriter" will be used as printer type. "LaserWriter" is the recommended setting to be used with all PostScript printers. To enable Autodetect Printer Type, log in to your print server’s Web interface and select Admin | Network Settings | Detailed View | Macintosh | Auto Detect Printer Type | Yes. See the Help pages in the print server’s Web interface for details. LaserWriter 7.0 Printer Driver Follow the instructions below to choose a printer: 1. Select Chooser from the Apple menu. 2. Click the LaserWriter icon. 3. If your network has more than one zone, click on the zone you want. (If your network does not have any zones, this box will not appear.)

38 AXIS 5400+ / AXIS 5600+ User’s Manual 4. Click the name of the printer you want — the ports are shown as _. Example: AXIS100086_LPT1. 5. Click the Close box. This completes the configuration and closes the Chooser. Repeat this procedure for each Macintosh computer on the network using the print server. LaserWriter 8.0 Printer Driver Follow the instructions below to choose a printer: 1. Select Chooser from the Apple menu. 2. Click the LaserWriter 8.0 icon. 3. If your network has more than one zone click on the zone you want. (If your network does not have any zones, this box will not appear.) 4. Click the name of the printer you want — the ports are shown as _. Example: AXIS100086_LPT1. 5. Click Setup... and then Auto Setup. If the selected printer supports bi- directional printing and the appropriate PPD file is available, the installation is performed automatically and you can therefore proceed directly to step 7 (if this is not the case, the PPD file must be selected manually, as described in step 6). 6. Choose the PPD file matching your printer, and click OK. If your printer does not appear in the PPD file list, please contact your printer vendor. Use the Generic PPD if you do not need any printer specific features. 7. Click OK, and then click the Close box. This completes the configuration and closes the Chooser. Repeat this procedure for each Macintosh computer on the network using the print server. Bi-directional Support The AXIS 5400+/AXIS 5600+ allows the printer driver to communicate directly with the printer and consequently facilitates complete functional control over print jobs, e.g. automatic downloading of fonts not resident in the printer. This functionality has backward compatibility with older printers and Macintosh computers, which means that the AXIS 5400+/AXIS 5600+ can generate appropriate responses to Macintosh printer queries when the connected printer does not support bi-directional communication. Verifying the Setup You simply need to print a document from the Macintosh computer to verify communication to the chosen printer. The basic installation can be considered complete if the print test is satisfactory. The AXIS 5400+/AXIS 5600+ is now ready for use.

AXIS 5400+ / AXIS 5600+ User’s Manual 39 BCP and TBCP You should specify if you want to enable or disable binary transfer of print data in the print server’s Web interface (Admin | Network Settings | Detailed View | Macintosh | Binary Protocol for Printer n. By enabling binary transfer you reduce printing time, provided that the print job is sent as binary data to the print server. This is particular true when you are printing large bitmaps. • TBCP enables the print server to use the TBCP (Tagged Binary Communication Protocol) to transfer print data to the printer. Select this alternative when using Postscript printers. • BCP enables the print server to use the BCP (Binary Communications Protocol) to transfer print data to the printer. Select this alternative when using Postscript printers. • None disables all binary transfers, select this alternative for all non- PostScript printers and for ASCII PostScript printing. Notes: Setting Parameters In AppleTalk, you can change a limited number of the parameters of the AXIS 5400+/AXIS 5600+, such as: • enable and disable binary data transfers for your printing • select the type of binary transfer protocol to use • specify the AppleTalk printer type • set the IP address However, by assigning an IP address to your print server, you have access to all of the print server parameters via any standard Web browser or via FTP. Refer to Section 10 Management and Configuration, on page 82 for more information. Follow the instructions below to set the print server parameters in AppleTalk: Important: 1. Open the Chooser from the Apple menu. 2. Select a network printer driver — any LaserWriter will do. 3. Select the printer port ending with _CFG. 4. Close the Chooser. 5. Open a text editor, e.g. SimpleText. • If you have have set the Autodetect Printer Type parameter to YES, the text output format will be chosen automatically (Admin | Network Settings | Detailed View | Macintosh | Auto Detect Printer n Type | Yes). • Some printers, e.g. Epson InkJet printers, can not be used when TBCP is enabled. DO NOT use the parameter values from this example when configuring your print server. You should select values that are appropriate for your printers and network settings.

Basic Queue-based printing over IP Axis print servers with software version 6.0 or later allow users to print in a Pure IP environment using traditional queue-based printing (which usually uses the IPX transport protocol). Note that only NDS queue-based printing is supported. In the NetWare Pure IP environment, you must use the NetWare Administrator to create the printer, print server and queue objects. Installing the Axis Network Print Server Follow the instructions below to install the Axis Network Print Server in the NetWare Pure IP environment: 1. Start the Configuration Wizard from the User mode in the Axis Network Print Server Web interface. 2. Click your way through the Wizard until reaching the NetWare page. 3. Set the parameters on the NetWare page: • PSERVER NDS Tree (example: NW5TREE) or PSERVER NDS File Server: (example: FILESERVERNAME) • PSERVER NDS Distinguished Name: (example: AXISXXXXXX., where is the container where you want to create your print server) • You cannot type or edit the name manually. • Make sure that you have PSERVER.NLM running if you selected Remote Printer Mode in step 8.

64 AXIS 5400+ / AXIS 5600+ User’s Manual Setting the PSERVER parameters in the Axis Network Print Server Web interface. 4. Use the NetWare Administrator to create the printer, print server and queue objects in the NDS tree and then link them together. The Print Services Quick Setup (Non-NDPS) utility can be used for this. Go to Tools in the NetWare Administrator. 5. Use the Add Printer Wizard on your work station to install the printer on your client. Note that only NDS queue based PSERVER printing is supported. When installing, choose Network Printer and browse to the queue you have just created. Alternatively, choose Local Printer and select the queue you have just captured. Any configuration and management of the Axis Network Print Server can be performed from any standard Web browser. Please refer to “Using a Web Browser for Print Server Management” on page 82. If both the IPX and IP protocols are enabled in your network and the print server uses DUAL_STACK (enabled by default) as its network transport protocol, then IPX will be chosen. To force the print server to use the IP transport protocol, go to your print server’s Web interface and choose Admin | Detailed View | NetWare and change the NetWare Transport Protocol from DUAL_STACK to IP_ONLY. Save and exit when finished. Note: Queue-based Printing Methods The following overview explains the advantages and limitations of the two supported queue-based printing methods. Print Server Mode The Axis Network Print Server logs in to a file server(s) and repeatedly polls the print queues for print jobs. In this fashion, the Axis Network Print Server emulates a NetWare print server, which is a workstation running PSERVER. It provides high printing speed with low network load and is the recommended mode for medium to large sized networks. Each print server in PSERVER mode takes one NetWare user license. Pure IP requires that you run NetWare 5 or higher.

AXIS 5400+ / AXIS 5600+ User’s Manual 65 Advantages • High performance: up to 1 Mbyte/s Limitations • In bindery mode, this printing method requires a NetWare user licence for each Axis Network Print Server to file server link. Remote Printer Mode The Axis Network Print Server acts as Remote Printer for PSERVER.NLM running on the NetWare file server, or to a dedicated workstation running PSERVER.EXE. In this fashion, the Axis Network Print Server emulates a workstation running the NetWare remote printer software RPRINTER, or NPRINTER. This mode is only recommended for small networks where the number of NetWare user licences is a major issue. Advantages • NetWare user licences are not required. Limitations • Lower performance, typically 20 - 70 kbytes/s for NLM and higher network load. Using Novell Utilities After installing the Axis Network Print Server into the NetWare environment, you can manage your Axis Network Print Server, using either Novell’s NetWare Administrator, or PCONSOLE. NetWare Administration Some useful features provided by the NetWare Administrator are described in more detail below: Printer Status: The Printer Status menu, detailed below, shows the status of an active print job serviced by an Axis Network Print Server. It displays detailed information concerning the active job including, Print Queue, print job description, size of print file, percentage of job completed, etc. You can also abort or pause the print job from this menu. Notification: You can use the NetWare Administrator to enable or disable status notification messages for printers connected to the AXIS 5400+/AXIS 5600+, e.g. Busy, Off-line, Out of paper, Paper jam, etc. You can also add or remove print job owners and administrators from the list of persons to be notified. Print Layout: You can view installed AXIS 5400+/AXIS 5600+ and their relative print queues for any NetWare Organizational Unit. You can also display summary information by right-clicking on the printer object you want to examine.

66 AXIS 5400+ / AXIS 5600+ User’s Manual Section 7 Adding Printers in UNIX/Linux Print Tools For printer configuration, printtool and printconfig are the most common.

70 AXIS 5400+ / AXIS 5600+ User’s Manual Red Hat 7.3 Printtool has been replaced by Printconf. The utility maintains the /etc/printcap configuration file, print spool directories, and print filters. Note: If you type printtool at a shell prompt, printconf will automatically start. Invocation 1. On the Gnome desktop, select the Main Menu button (on the Panel) => Programs => System => Printer Configuration to start the graphical version. 2. On the KDE desktop, select the Main Menu button (on the Panel) => Red Hat => System => Printer Configuration to start the graphical version. 3. Type the command printconf -gui at a shell prompt (for example, in an XTerm or a Gnome terminal) to start the graphical version. 4. You can also run printconf as a text based application if you do not have the X Window System installed, or you just prefer the text based interface. To run it, log in as root (or use the command su to temporarily change to the root user), and type the command /usr/sbin/printconf -tui from a shell prompt. Print Queues Five types of print queues can be configured with printconf in the Red Hat distribution: • Local Printer • Unix Printer (lpd Spool) • Windows Printer (SMB) • Novell Printer (NCP Queue) • JetDirect Printer Important! • Do not edit the /etc/printcap file. Each time the printer deamon (lpd) is started /restarted, a new /etc/printcap file is dynamically created. • If you want to add a printer without using printconf, edit the /etc/printcap.local file. The entries in /etc/printcap.local are not displayed in printconf but are read by the printer daemon. • If you upgrade your system from a previous version of Red Hat Linux, your existing configuration file is converted to the new format used by printconf. Each time a new configuration file is generated by printconf, the old file is saved as /etc/printcap.old. • If you add a new print queue or modify an existing one, you need to restart the printer daemon (lpd) for the changes to take effect. • Clicking the Apply button saves any changes that you have made and restarts the printer daemon. The changes are not written to the /etc/printcap configuration file until the printer daemon (lpd) is restarted. Alternatively, you can choose File => Save Changes and then choose File => Restart lpd to save your changes and then restart the printer daemon. • If a printer appears in the main printer list with the Queue Type set to INVALID, the printer configuration is missing options that are required for the printer to function properly. To remove this printer from the list, select it from the list and click the Delete button.

AXIS 5400+ / AXIS 5600+ User’s Manual 71 Adding a Remote Unix Printer 1.

Select Unix Printer from the Queue Type menu, and click Next. 3. Enter a unique name for the printer in the Queue Name text field. The printer name cannot contain spaces and must begin with a letter a through z or A through Z. The valid characters are a through z, A through Z, 0 through 9, -, and _. Click Next. Text fields for the following options appear: Server — The hostname or IP address of the remote machine to which the printer is attached. Queue — The remote printer queue. The default printer queue is usually lp. By default, the Strict RFC1179 Compliance option is not chosen. If you are having problems printing to a non-Linux lpd queue, choose this option to disable enhanced LPRng printing features. 4. Click Next to continue. The next step is to select the type of printer that is connected to the remote system. Important! Selecting the Print Driver If you are configuring a local printer, select the print driver from the list. The printers are divided by manufacturers. Click the arrow beside the manufacturer for your printer. Find your printer from the expanded list, and click the arrow beside the printer name. A list of drivers for your printer will appear. Select one. Then finish the Wizard in the usual manner. The remote machine must be configured to allow the local machine to print on the desired queue. As root, create the file /etc/hosts.lpd on the remote machine to which the printer is attached. On separate lines in the file, add the IP address or hostname of each machine which should have printing privileges.

72 AXIS 5400+ / AXIS 5600+ User’s Manual SuSE 8.0 The printing system on SuSE Linux is based on an apsfilter, with some enhancements; SuSE's apsfilter will recognize all common file formats (including HTML, if html2ps is installed). There are two ways to setup printers on SuSE systems: • YaST2 will let you configure "PostScript", "DeskJet" and "Other printers", supported by Ghostscript drivers; it's also possible to setup HP's GDI printers (DeskJet 710/720, 820, 1000, via the "ppa" package). YaST2 will provide /etc/printcap entries for every printer ("raw", "ascii", "auto" and "color", if the printer to configure is a color printer). YaST2 will create spool directories and it will arrange apsfilterrc files, where you're able to fine tune some settings (Ghostscript preloads, paper size, paper orientation, resolution, printer escape sequences, etc.). With YaST2 it's also possible to setup network printers (TCP/IP, Samba, or Novell NetWare Printer). • SuSE includes the regular SETUP program from the original apsfilter package (with some enhancements); run lprsetup to invoke this configuration script. Once you get accustomed to its GUI, you'll be able to configure local and network printers. Invocation of YaST2 On the Gnome desktop select YaST2 Menu Button (on the panel) => Yast Control Center => Hardware => Edit Printers to start the Printer Configuration tool. On the KDE desktop select YaST Menu Button (on the panel) => Yast2 modules => Hardware => Edit printers to start the graphic version. Print Queues SuSE and YaST2 differ between these printer connections: • Local printers (Parallel, Serial and Disk File) • LPD protocol network printing (Forward queue to a remote LPD and Prefiltered queue for an LPD forwarding queue) • Other network printing (Samba/Windows, Novell) The SuSE installation manual explains the setup procedures in detail.

AXIS 5400+ / AXIS 5600+ User’s Manual 73 AXIS axinstall Script Having performed the basic TCP/IP setup procedures as defined earlier in this manual, you are now able to print in interactive mode using PROS, LPR, FTP or Reverse Telnet protocols. However, if you want to integrate the AXIS 5400+/AXIS 5600+ with your host spooler, you can use the Axis automatic installation script axinstall. The axinstall script is available from ftp://ftp.axis.com/pub_soft/prt_srv/utility/axinstall/latest/ After executing this script, the printer connected to the print server will appear as though it is directly connected to the host printer spooler. If you intend to use the print server in a multi-protocol environment, refer to the chapters pertaining to the respective operating systems in this manual. When the axinstall script has been downloaded to your host, execute the script with this command: sh axinstall or sh ./axinstall (depending on your system). You will be guided through the installation by a step-by-step procedure. During the installation you will be asked to select a print method; we suggest you choose LPD or, for more functionality, use the PROS filter or named pipe methods. Please refer to the following pages if you need guidance on the choice of print methods. The axinstall script will suggest one of the systems listed below when started. If you do not find the suggestion appropriate, then manually select any of the systems listed. Systems supported by axinstall Note: NLPRng is not supported by axinstall. 1....SunOS 4 (SUN BSD, Solaris 1.x) 2....SunOS 5 (SUN SYS V, Solaris 2.x) 3....AIX (IBM RS/6000, BULL DPX 20) 4....HP-UX (HP 9000) 5....BOS (BULL DPX 2) 6....DEC OSF/1 (Digital Equipment, Alpha) 7....ULTRIX (Digital Equipment, DEC) 8....IRIX (Silicon Graphics, SGI) 9....SCO UNIX (Santa Cruz Operation) 10...SCO UnixWare 2.x 11...SCO UnixWare 7 12...SCO OpenServer 13...FreeBSD (Berkeley UNIX) 14...Linux 15...Generic BSD (Berkeley UNIX) 16...Generic SYS V R3 (UNIX System V Release 3) 17...Generic SYS V R4 (UNIX System V Release 4)

74 AXIS 5400+ / AXIS 5600+ User’s Manual Print Methods on TCP/IP Networks The AXIS 5400+/AXIS 5600+ supports several different print methods in the TCP/IP environment. axinstall will suggest a print method suitable for your particular UNIX/Linux system, but you might want to use another method depending on your printing requirements (banner pages, status logging, etc). The diagram below shows the alternative data paths taken by some of the UNIX/Linux print methods. This illustrates some of the advantages and limitations of the different methods. Use the following information to determine which method to adopt. Illustration of different UNIX/Linux print methods LPD The Line Printer Daemon is a protocol for transferring print jobs between hosts. This is the recommended method for UNIX/Linux systems, but some System V versions do not support LPD. Advantages: Easy to set up — install the AXIS 5400+/AXIS 5600+ as a remote queue in System V, or add a remote printer to /etc/printcap using the rm and rp fields (BSD). Limitations: Spooler features, and printcap or lpr options (BSD) such as multiple copies, are not available. FTP The File Transfer Protocol is used for transferring files between hosts. Advantages: Uses industry standard network software on the host. Limitations: No printer status logging. In the case of BSD it may conflict with other input or output filters and does not allow both input and output filters. In System V no filters or interface programs can be used.  File to Print Print Spooler Filter/ Model Parallel Port printer Printer Named Pipe PROS print daemon Devices DIRECT FTP RTELNET LPD FTP RTELNET PROS B PROS A Axis Network Print Server Interface Directly connected

AXIS 5400+ / AXIS 5600+ User’s Manual 75 PROS A protocol developed at Axis. Comes in two versions; named pipe (PROS A) and filter (PROS B). PROS A Advantages The AXIS 5400+/AXIS 5600+ appears as a device to the system. This makes all filter and model options available. It provides accounting and status logging. Supports bi-directional printing. The printer information read back can be viewed in a log file. PROS A Limitations A ‘C’ compiler is required to build the PROS A drivers. Note: PROS B Advantages It provides accounting and status logging. Supports bi-directional printing. The printer information read back can be viewed in a log file. PROS B Limitations A ‘C’ compiler is required to build the PROS B drivers and in the case of BSD, it may conflict with other input or output filters. It does not allow both input and output filters. Interface programs can not be used in System V. Reverse Telnet Often used for printing via a terminal server printer port. Only recommended if you already have a Reverse Telnet driver installed. Advantages: Easy to set up with previously installed Reverse Telnet drivers. Limitations: No status logging. Drivers are not supplied with the print server. Existing drivers may be slow. Other UNIX/Linux Systems Most UNIX/Linux systems resemble either BSD or System V and so with some ingenuity, a solution can also be devised for other variants. If the system has BSD socket type networking support, then prosbsd (in the bsd directory of the AXIS 5400+/AXIS 5600+) can be used as a starting point. It receives print data from stdin, and writes a log file to stderr. Nothing is written to stdout. Alternatively, FTP may be used. It is a good idea to use bsd/ftp_bsd or sysv/ftp_sysv as a starting point. IBM MVS Systems A sample JCL script, jclex, is available in the mvs directory of the print server. It gives an example of how to print a file from an MVS mainframe to an AXIS 5400+/AXIS 5600+ using FTP. You can download a ‘C’ compiler from http://www.gnu.org/

Using SNMP You can use SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) for remotely monitoring and configuring of the Axis Network Print Server. All major functions for print servers are supported. General Information SNMP refers to a set of standards for network management, including a protocol, a database structure specification, and a set of data objects. The Axis Network Print Server SNMP implementation runs in the TCP/IP environment. The management is handled by NMS (Network Management System) software running on a host on your network. The NMS software communicates with network devices by the means of messages, which are references to one or more objects. A message can be a question or an instruction to a device, or an alarm triggered by a specific event in a device. Objects are contained in data bases called MIBs (Management Information Base), where MIB-II is a standard database. The Axis Network Print Server supports all relevant parts of MIB-II and also includes a private enterprise MIB. Refer to The AXIS MIB, on page 94. System Requirements for SNMP The following requirements must be fulfilled in order to make full use of the Axis Network Print Server SNMP support: • NMS software that allows you to install private enterprise MIBs • A host, supporting FTP, on which to run the NMS software Follow these steps to add the AXIS MIB to your NMS software: 1. Log in to the Axis Network Print Server using FTP. 2. Download the MIB file /snmp/axis.mib to the NMS host. 3. Install the AXIS MIB according to instructions in your NMS software documentation. The AXIS MIB The AXIS MIB contains a large number of objects which may be

Section 11 Configuration Possibilities This section describes some configuration possibilities offered by the Axis Network Print Server: Autodetect Printer Type, on page 98 Changing Language in the Print Server’s Web Interface, on page 108 E-mail Notification, on page 99 IPP (Internet Printing Protocol), on page 99 NetWare Packet Signature Levels, on page 108 TCP/IP Restrictions, on page 109 Enabling Secure Web Services — SSL/TLS, on page 110 Autodetect Printer Type The print server can automatically detect the type of printer you are using if you enable Autodetect Printer Type. The print server can then recognize Epson and Hewlett Packard InkJet printers. Most Epson and Hewlett Packard InkJet printers that have Mac OS printer drivers for network printing are supported. If Autodetect Printer Type is disabled, the AppleTalk printer type has to be specified manually in the print server. For Epson InkJets it would be "EPSONLQ2" and for HP InkJets it would be "DeskWriter". If the print server does not recognize the connected printer the default setting, "LaserWriter" will be used as printer type. "LaserWriter" is the recommended setting to be used with all PostScript printers. To enable Autodetect Printer Type, log in to your print server’s Web interface and select Admin | Network Settings | Detailed View | Macintosh | Auto Detect Printer Type | Yes. See the Help pages in the print server’s Web interface for details.

99 E-mail Notification Whenever an event that needs human intervention occurs in a network printer, the concerned person can be notified by e-mail. This ’trouble- report’ contains a short and concise description of the event. Five events are covered: Paper Jam, Out of Paper, Toner Low, No Toner, Printer Off-line. In order to determine who the e-mail recipients will be of these different trouble-reports, follow these instructions: 1. From your print server’s internal Web page, go to: Admin | Network Settings | Detailed View | e-mail Notification. The following options will appear: 2. Enter the respective e-mail addresses of the trouble-report recipients in the blank fields as follows: [email protected] 3. Click OK and exit when done. Important: IPP (Internet Printing Protocol) The Axis Network Print Server enables printing over the Internet with IPP (Internet Printing Protocol), an industry standard that allows users to print to remote printers across the Internet. With IPP, a user with an Internet connection can send a document to any printer which is connected to the Internet. IPP is platform independent and can be used to print over any LAN or WAN that supports TCP/IP. In practical terms, this means that you can send documents to a remote printer as an addition to or replacement of fax and e-mail, with the same Options E-mail recipient Administrator e- mail Address This address will be used as “Reply to”-address in the e- mails PAPER JAM The person responsible for handling paper jams in the printer OUT OF PAPER The person responsible for filling the printer with paper TONER LOW The person responsible for filling up the toner in the printer NO TONER The person responsible for changing the toner in the printer PRINTER OFFLINE The person responsible for the overall maintenance of printer Check that the SMTP Server and Domain Name parameters in the print server’s internal Web pages are correct.

quality and color options of traditional network printing. IPP clients An IPP client needs to be installed on your computer together with an appropriate printer driver for proper IPP functionality. The IPP client is a tool that adds destination printers to your printer list. The Axis Network Print Server with integrated IPP is compatible with any 1.0 and 1.1 compliant IPP client. The Axis Network Print Server presents IPP printer objects to the client, one for each printer port. Some of the most common IPP client printing methods are described below. Please refer to your IPP client documentation for more specific information. Currently Available IPP Clients on the Market: • For Windows 2000/XP/2003: the Microsoft IPP Client (automatically installed with the Operating System). • For Windows 98, NT: IPP clients can be downloaded from the Microsoft Web site. • For UNIX/Linux: CUPS (can be downloaded from the Common Unix Printing System Web site at www.cups.org). • If you wish to print using iPrint over IPP, use AXIS IPP Gateway Configuration Snap-in for iPrint in NetWare 5.x. It is available on www.axis.com (Support | Select Software). See its read-me file for installation instructions. • For Windows NT/2000: the Internet Printer Connection software from Hewlett Packard (can be downloaded from the Hewlett Packard Web site). IPP Printing Requirements Before you print to an IPP printer you need to know: • the address of the print server. • the brand and model of the printer in order to install the appropriate printer driver. Address Schemes for IPP Printers When using IPP printing, you need to know the IP address or host name of your Axis print server. IPP is a client/server type protocol which comprises two industry standards: • the 1.0 standard, which uses an http:// address scheme • the 1.1 standard, which uses an ipp:// address scheme Example using a Host Name in the 1.0 Standard: If “axisps” is the host name of the print server, "631" is the port number and "LPT1" is the local printer port name, then the syntax of the address scheme will be http://axisps:631/LPT1 in the 1.0 standard. Example using an IP Address in the 1.1 Standard: If “171.16.5.218” is the IP address of the print server and "LPT1" is the local printer port name, then the syntax of the address scheme will be ipp://171.16.5.218/LPT1 in the 1.1 standard.
