This chapter describes how to install the Wireless Print Server in your LAN.
Procedure
1. Preparation
•Ensure the power is OFF.
•Find the Default Server Name for your Wireless 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 or Printers
Connect the printer or plotter cables to the appropriate port on the Wireless Print Server unit. Parallel port cables should be less than 3 meters long.
3. Connect to the Network
•For Wired Networks
Use a standard
If the LAN port is not connected to a functioning network device, the LAN port is disabled. To enable the LAN port, please power off the Print Server, connect the LAN port to a working network device and then power on the Print Server.
•For Wireless Networks
Change your PC's Wireless settings to match the Print Server's default settings:
•Mode:
•SSID: ANY
•Channel: 11
•WEP: Disabled
In Infrastructure mode, you can use EITHER the Wireless OR the
LAN interface on the Print Server, but not both
4. Power Up and check the LED
Connect the supplied Power Adapter, power up both the Printer and Print Server, and check the Error LED on the Print Server.
•It should flash, then go off.
•It will remain On if there is a hardware problem.
Use only the Power Supply unit provided with the device. Power Supply units for different models are not interchangeable.
