Install the NPS 530/532

Once the Axis Print Utility is installed and running, you can install the NPS 530/532 by clicking the Install entry on the action bar. The Install command initiates a search for Axis print servers on the network. Your new NPS 530/532 will appear in the list (together with any other Axis print servers) as a printer port:

AX110086.LP1

The digits following AX are the six last digits of the NPS 530/532 serial number (110086 in this example). LP1 is the NPS 530/532 printer port (LPT1).

The Axis print server ports appearing in the list can now be assigned as print queue destinations as described below.

Note: If the serial number of your NPS 530/532 is 00408C110086, then the default port name is AX110086.LP1. The serial number is found on the label at the back of the NPS 530/532. You may change the default names by editing parameters LPRINT_1, LPRINT_2, etc. in the config file as described in Appendix A. If you want to change the default port names, you must do that before installing the NPS 530/532 using Axis Print Utility.

This high power capability allows for the use of more advanced cameras equipped with enhanced features, such as pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) functionality, which can require significantly more power.

Both models are equipped with Power over Ethernet (PoE) technology, which simplifies installation and reduces the need for additional wiring. PoE enables a single cable to provide both data connection and electrical power to devices, making the installation process more efficient and cost-effective. The NPS 530 and NPS 532 support the IEEE 802.3at and 802.3af PoE standards, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of network devices.

Another key characteristic of these power supplies is their resilience and reliability. The rugged design of the NPS series ensures durability in various environmental conditions, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations. They are constructed with high-quality components that enhance their longevity, reducing the total cost of ownership over time.

The NPS 530 and NPS 532 also feature advanced thermal management systems. These systems help maintain optimal operating temperatures, preventing overheating during prolonged usage. Additionally, both models include LED indicators that provide real-time status updates, allowing users to monitor the operational state at a glance.

In conclusion, the Axis NPS 530 and NPS 532 power supplies stand out in the market for their high performance, advanced PoE technology, and robust design. They offer an ideal solution for modern surveillance needs, ensuring security professionals can deploy powerful network cameras with confidence. With these innovations, Axis Communications continues to set the standard in reliable video surveillance technology.
