LevelOne FPS-2003TXU Printer User Manual


 
TCP/IP
This chapter covers configuration of the LevelOne Printer Server in
a TCP/IP environment.
Overview
The following procedure can NOT be used with model EPS-3001TU. For this model,
the BiAdmin utility program should be used for configuration. See Chapter 4 for
details on installing and using BiAdmin.
If using TCP/IP in a Peer-to-peer printing environment, refer to Chapter 10 - Windows
Peer-to-peer.
This chapter covers configuration of the LevelOne Printer Server only. For host
configuration, refer to Chapter 8 - Unix or Chapter 9 - Windows NT Server.
Web Browser Configuration
100BaseT LevelOne Printer Server models incorporate a HTTP server. This allows you to
connect to the LevelOne Printer Server and configure it using your Web Browser. Most
browsers should work, provided they support tables and forms.
Preparation
Because it supports dynamic IP Address allocation using DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP, the
LevelOne Printer Server ships with an IP Address of 0.0.0.0. This is NOT a valid IP
Address.
Therefore, you must do ONE of the following:
Check your DCHP server (if you have one), and determine the IP Address allocated to
the LevelOne Printer Server.
Use BiAdmin or another LevelOne Printer Server utility to allocate a valid IP Address
to the LevelOne Printer Server.
Add an entry to the arp table to associate the hardware address of the LevelOne
Printer Server with the desired IP address, as follows:
arp -s IP_Address 00:c0:02:xx:xx:xx (Unix)
arp -s IP_Address 00-c0-02-xx-xx-xx (Windows)
Where:
IP_Address is the IP Address you wish to assign to the LevelOne Printer Server
00:c0:02:xx:xx:xx is the hardware address of the LevelOne Printer Server.
Example (Unix):
arp -s 192.168.0.21 00:c0:02:12:34:56
Example (Windows):
arp -s 192.168.0.21 00-c0-02-12-34-56
The Default Server Name and the Hardware Address of the
LevelOne Printer Server are shown on a sticker on the base of the
device.
