To successfully configure the printer for POP3 support, you need the following information:

The IP address of the POP3 server

The username of the POP3 account

The password of the POP3 account

The poll frequency for the printer. The poll frequency tells the printer how often to check for e-mail.

If you are unfamiliar with any of the above parameters and settings, please contact your network administrator for assistance.

For more information on using and sending commands to your printer, see the EasyCoder PL-Series Printer Programmer’s Reference Manual.

Note: If the printer times out, sending a print request through the 802.11b connection will not turn the printer on. Make sure the printer is on before sending your print request.

To set up for POP3 e-mail printing

1Verify that the printer is connected to your wireless network. If it is not connected, please refer to “Setting Up for LPD or TCP Printing” or “Setting Up for WEP Encryption” earlier in this guide.

2Set the POP3 server IP address on the printer by issuing the following command via the serial port:

!U1 SETVAR “ip.pop3.server_addr” “xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

where “xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx” is the IP address of the POP3 server.

3Set the POP3 username via the command:

! U1 SETVAR “ip.pop3.username” “my username

where “my username” is the POP3 account name.

4Set the POP3 account password via the command:

! U1 SETVAR “ip.pop3.password” “my password

where “my password” is the password for the POP3 account.
