Additional settings, like routing entries, can be configured. This allows communication across subnets when no other router exists.
Configuration of the PrintNet can be done from the printer control panel, IPAssign, Web browser, or host commands. To configure these options, see “Configuration Tools” on page 23.
Configuration Using IPAssign
NOTE: You must have the TCP/IP protocol and services enabled on this windows station first.
To configure an IP address and subnet mask on your PrintNet:
1.Insert the diskette labeled “IPAssign” into the floppy drive.
2.Load the File Manager or WinFile and look under the floppy drive for an IPAssign
3.Double click on the IPAssign file to launch the install program.
4.When prompted to install, click on YES to load the InstallShield Wizard.
5.Answer the prompts throughout the wizard.
6.Once the install process is complete, you will be prompted to view the “ReadMe” file. Select “Yes” to read this. Close the file when done.
7.Find the new IPAssign program group and double click on the “IPAssign” icon to load the program.
NOTE: IPAssign will search the network to find the correct device. This may take several minutes. For larger networks, you may speed the process by powering the printer off and then on again.
