21 Notes: The test page includes a list of the print server’s most important parameters, including IP address, Network Speed and firmware version number. The AXIS 5600+ uses high speed Centronics Communication. For use with older printers not supporting high speed, this function can be disabled by using a standard Web browser. Please refer to Section Management & Configuration, on page 119, for more information.

22 Assigning an IP address Before you Start • If you have a DHCP server on your network, your print server will receive an IP address automatically. The IP address (Internet address) will then appear on the test page you printed during installation. • If you are not working in a DHCP network, you need to set the IP address of the print server manually. See the manual methods for setting an IP address on page 22. System Privileges 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 • add an entry to the ARP table with the command 'arp -s' Ethernet Address You need to know the Ethernet address of your AXIS 5600+ in order to assign an IP address to it. The Ethernet address is based upon the serial number of your print server. This means, for example, that an AXIS 5600+ with the serial number of 00408C100086, will have the corresponding Ethernet address of 00 40 8C 10 00 86. The serial number is located on the bottom label of the print server. IP Address Unless you are assigning an IP address using DHCP or AutoIP, you must obtain an unused IP address from your network administrator. Important: DO NOT use the IP addresses used in the following examples when installing your AXIS 5600+. Consult your network administrator before assigning an IP address to your print server.

23 Methods for setting the IP Address The IP address of your AXIS 5600+ can be set using the following methods, depending on your network operating environment: Important: Method Network environments See ... DHCP Windows NT/2000/XP, UNIX, NetWare 5, OS/2 Set the IP Address using DHCP, on page 25 RARP UNIX Setting the print server’s IP address using RARP in UNIX, on page 30 BOOTP UNIX, NetWare 5, OS/2 Setting the print server’s IP adderss using BOOTP in UNIX, on page 31 Auto-IP Windows 98/2000/XP, DHCP and Auto-IP, on page 33 ARP/Ping Windows 95/98/NT/2000/XP OS/2 Setting the print server’s IP address using ARP in Windows and OS/2, on page 26 UNIX Setting the print server’s IP address using ARP in UNIX and Mac OS X, on page 28 AXIS IP JumpStarter Windows 95/98/NT/2000/XP Set the print server’s IP address using AXIS IP JumpStarter, on page 34 AXIS NetPilot NetWare 5 Assigning an IP address, on page 22 • The ability to set the IP address with ARP/Ping will only be enabled the first 4 minutes after restarting the print server. • The ARP and RARP methods operate on single network segments only, i.e. they cannot be used over routers. The IP address is set automatically using these methods You must set the IP address manually with these methods

24 Registering and Resolving Host Names In order to register the host name of the AXIS 5600+ in networks with dynamic IP address settings, WINS (Windows Internet Name Service) and DDNS (Dynamic Domain Naming System) are supported. It is recommended that at least one of these methods should be used if you are setting the IP address of the AXIS 5600+ using DHCP. The host name of the AXIS 5600+ is specified by the PS_NAME parameter. Refer to Appendix The Parameter List, on page 178 WINS host name rules WINS only supports 15 character long host names. If your host name is longer than 15 characters, the AXIS 5600+ truncates the host name to 15 characters when registering with a WINS server. You can access the AXIS 5600+ using the host name that is registered on your WINS server. Refer to Section Management & Configuration, on page 119. DDNS host name rules DDNS supports 53 character long host names, but they can only consist of the characters ‘A-Z’, ’a-z’ and ‘-’. If your host name consists of any other characters, they are converted to ‘-’, when registering with a DDNS server. You can access the AXIS 5600+ using the host name that is registered on your DDNS server. Refer to Section Management & Configuration, on page 119. If the host name matches another entry in the DDNS data base, the AXIS 5600+ will delete the entry before it can be registered. Therefore it is important not to use duplicate host names on your network. Notes: The host name limitations conclude that if you want to register the same host name at a WINS server and a DDNS server, the host name should be no longer than 15 characters and it should only contain the characters ‘A - Z’, ‘a-z’ and ‘-’. Refer to your system manuals or to your network administrator for instructions on how host name resolutions are performed on your system.

25 Set the IP Address using DHCP Follow the instructions below to download the IP address using DHCP: 1. Edit or create a scope in the DHCP manager of the DHCP daemon. The entries included in this scope should contain the following parameters: • range of IP addresses • subnet mask • default router IP address • WINS server IP address(es) or DDNS server IP address(es) • lease duration 2. Activate the scope. The print server automatically downloads the DHCP parameters. If you are using WINS or DNS, you should include at least one WINS or DNS server IP address in the DHCP scope. Immediately after the IP address has been received, the print server registers its host name and IP address on the WINS alternatively DNS server. Refer to Registering and Resolving Host Names, on page 24 for more information. 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 DHCP scope. The config file is downloaded immediately after the print server receives its IP address. 3. You have now successfully set the IP address of your print server. Continue to Installation Methods, on page 35. Note: You have to restart the print server to download the IP address.

26 Setting the print server’s IP address using ARP in Windows and OS/2 Start out with making sure that the IP address is available for use. The IP address 192.168.3.191 is used here as an example: • Ping the IP address by opening a Command Prompt and writing: If the host returns Reply from 192.168.3.191 ... or a similar message, the IP address is already taken. You can obtain a new and unused IP address from your system administrator. • Check that the IP address you want to use is not already taken and stored in the host’s cache memory. Open a Command Prompt and write: If the host lists the IP Address followed by the Physical Address, then the IP address is in use. You can remove the entry from the cache memory with the command: ping 192.168.3.191 arp -a arp -d 192.168.3.191

27 Follow the instructions below to set the IP address using arp/ping: 1. Open a Command Prompt and write: 2. Without interrupting the “ping -t” loop, restart the print server by disconnecting and then re-connecting the power supply. 3. If the host returns Reply from 192.168.3.191 ... or a similar message, the IP address has been set successfully. Interrupt the “ping -t” loop by pressing CTRL+C on your keyboard. If the host returns Request time out... you need to perform a factory default on the print server and perform steps 1-3 above again. See Performing a factory default, on page 32. 4. Log in to the print server’s Web pages (see Using a Web browser, on page 120), select Admin | Network Settings | Detailed View | TCP/IP and define the Default Router and Subnet Mask. You have now set the IP address of the print server. Continue to Installation Methods, on page 35. Important: arp -s ping -t arp -s 192.168.3.191 00-40-8c-10-00-86 ping -t 192.168.3.191 • The ability to set the IP address with ARP and PING will only be enabled the first 4 minutes after restarting the print server. • When you execute the ping command for the first time, you will experience a significantly longer response time than usual.

Some BSD type systems expect the host name and node address in reverse order. Furthermore IBM AIX systems will require the additional argument ether.

30 Setting the print server’s IP address using RARP in UNIX Follow the instructions below to set the IP address using RARP: 1. Append the following line to your Ethernet Address table. This is typically located in the /etc/ethers file: Example: 2. Update, if necessary, your host table and alias name databases, as required by your system. 3. If it is not already running, start the RARP daemon. This is typically performed using the rarpd -a command. 4. Restart the AXIS 5600+ to download the IP address. Notes: 00:40:8c:10:00:86 npsname • If the host name has not been mapped to an IP address, simply replace the host name entry with the IP address in the example above. • If you are using IBM AIX, you will probably not have access to a RARP daemon. If this is the case, you can use either the ARP or BOOTP methods instead.

31 Setting the print server’s IP adderss using BOOTP in UNIX Follow the instructions below to set the IP address using BOOTP: 1. Append the following entry to your boot table. This is typically performed by editing the file: /etc/bootptab Example: Notes: Enter the ht and vm fields exactly as shown in the example. The ha field is the Ethernet address/node address and the ip field is the IP address of your AXIS 5600+. The gw and sm fields correspond to the default router address and subnet mask. If the host name has not been mapped to an IP address, simply replace the host name entry with the IP address in the example above. 2. If necessary, update your host table and alias name databases, as required by your system. 3. If it is not already running, start the BOOTP daemon. This is typically performed using the bootpd command. 4. Restart the AXIS 5600+ to download the IP address, default router address, and subnet mask. The AXIS 5600+ 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 AXIS 5600+ receives its IP address. :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

39 TCP/IP and NetBIOS/NetBEUI Printing from AXIS Print Monitor AXIS Print Monitor Overview AXIS Print Monitor is a tool for network printing in Windows 95, 98, NT environments. It allows AXIS Network Print Servers to be connected in the same simple fashion as a local printer port and once installed, is automatically initialized upon system startup. AXIS Print Monitor has been developed for peer-to-peer printing, allowing your print jobs to be sent directly to the print server. Printing Environments AXIS Print Monitor supports printing over NetBIOS/NetBEUI and TCP/IP. To enable printing in these environments, please ensure that the desired printing protocols are running on your client. Peer-to-Peer Printing The AXIS Print Monitor needs to be installed on each workstation to perform peer-to-peer printing. Once installed, the AXIS Print Monitor allows you to access all network printers, just as if they were connected directly to your workstation. Peer-to-peer printing offers the following benefits: • You can easily monitor the status of your printers, by enabling error condition pop-up messages. • You do not have to rely on a server. Client-Server Printing AXIS Print Monitor needs only to be installed on one server to perform client-server printing. The installed printers must be configured to be shared to allow clients to use them. Pop-up messages should not be enabled on the server as they will not be displayed on the client platforms. Note: AXIS Print Monitor can be used for DOS printing. Please refer to the AXIS Print Monitor’s Readme file for instructions. The readme file is located in the same folder where AXIS Print Monitor is installed on your PC.

Start the Configuration Wizard from the User mode in the AXIS 5600+ 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)

88 Setting the PSERVER parameters in the AXIS 5600+ 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 5600+ can be performed from any standard Web browser. Please refer to Using a Web browser, on page 120.

89 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. Important for firmware released prior to 6.34! Note: Pure IP requires that you run NetWare 5 or higher. 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 5600+ logs in to a file server(s) and repeatedly polls the print queues for print jobs. In this fashion, the AXIS 5600+ 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. Advantages • High performance: up to 1 Mbyte/s Limitations • In bindery mode, this printing method requires a NetWare user licence for each AXIS 5600+ to file server link. For print server firmware versions prior to 6.34: In order for the print server to log in using the IP protocol, RCONAG6.NLM has to be loaded loaded on a file server in a specified tree. If you have multiple trees, make sure that only the file server in the specific tree has RCONAG6.NLM loaded.

90 Remote Printer Mode The AXIS 5600+ 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 5600+ 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. • Higher network load. Using Novell Utilities After installing the AXIS 5600+ into the NetWare environment, you can manage your AXIS 5600+, 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 5600+ 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

91 menu. NetWare Administrator Printer Status Menu Notification You can use the NetWare Administrator to enable or disable status notification messages for printers connected to the 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 5600+ Network Print Servers and their relative print queues for any NetWare Organizational Unit.

96 About AXIS Print Utility for OS/2 AXIS Print Utility for OS/2 is an application for NetBIOS/NetBEUI printing in the OS/2 environment. Its allows you to: • Install and maintain the AXIS 5600+ printer ports as OS/2 printer ports. • Capture and monitor print jobs directed to the AXIS 5600+ ports. Print jobs are directed through a spool directory located on your local hard disk (peer-to-peer mode), or on the file server (client-server mode). The printer port status of your AXIS 5600+ can be monitored and pop-up notification messages can be generated, keeping you informed of completed print jobs or any problem condition. Notes: The NetBEUI protocol must be active. If not, use MPTS/LAPS (LAN Server) or SETUP (LAN Manager) to activate it. If you are using OS/2 version 2.x and wish to print through TCP/IP, we recommend that you use the IBM TCP/IP for OS/2 product. It supports the LPD and interactive FTP print methods. Installing the AXIS 5600+ 1. When AXIS Print Utility for OS/2 is running, click Install to install your AXIS 5600+. The ports appear in the list as .LP1, .LP2 and .CM1, where is AX followed by the last six digits of your print server serial number. e.g. AX100086.LP1. 2.
