Attaching Bi-Admin to a Remote Wireless PrintServer

The Bi-Admin program can locate Wireless PrintServers on networks other than your own, given your network is running TCP/IP across a WAN or other network-to-network link via a router. To attach Bi-Admin to a remote Wireless PrintServer located on a remote network, click on Init Device, then Attach. The Add Cross Segment PrintServer window will appear. Enter the IP address of the remote unit, then click Set. The remote Wireless PrintServer will appear in the list of available PrintServers, allowing you to configure it.

Resetting the Wireless PrintServer

If the Wireless PrintServer seems locked up for any reason, you can reset it from the Bi-Admin program. To reset a Wireless PrintServer, click once on the Device Name of the Wireless PrintServer you want to reset, followed by Init Device, then Reset Device. You can also reset it by pressing the Reset button on the back of the unit, or by unplugging its power cord.

Restoring Factory Default

If you have made irreversible changes in configuration that have rendered the Wireless PrintServer unusable, or if you simply want to start over from scratch, you can set the Wireless PrintServer back to the default mode so that the device will operate just as it did when you purchased it. Click on Init Device, then Restore Factory Default.

Caution! Restoring Factory Default will erase ALL of the work that you have done on this unit since purchasing it.
