Getting Started

3.2 Incoming Logins

Incoming logins made via EZWebCon can be used to configure the server. Incoming LAT and TCP/IP logins can also be used.

Incoming Telnet is enabled by default to allow TCP/IP connections. To change this setting, use the Define Server Incoming command described in the Command Reference chapter of the Print Server Reference Manual located on CD-ROM.

Incoming logins do not prompt for a login password; therefore, you may wish to disable them. If it is undesirable to disable incoming logins, the Server can be configured to prompt for a password with the Define Server Incoming Password Enabled command.

3.3 Services

With few exceptions, a service must be created before print queues can be configured on the EPS. A service is a resource accessible to network hosts. A Lantronix service is also known as a remote printer name or remote queue name on many operating systems.

The EPS offers a default service on each port. The service names are EPS_xxxxxx_yy where

xxxxxxrepresents the last six numbers of the unit’s Ethernet address and yy is the port name, for example EPS_xxxxxx_S1 (serial port) or EPS_xxxxxx_P1 (parallel port).

NOTE: The default service names are based on the server name; therefore the server name must be no more than 13 characters.
