Installation

The description for installing a print server in a WLAN given in the ’Software Quick Installation’ guide does not apply to the PS54-G. Please follow the instructions below to install a PS54-G.

This Guide describes the installation via the 'WLAN-Wizard' that is included in the 'InterCon-NetTool'. The configuration via the 'Properties' dialog or the 'Prrint Server Homepage' is also possible.

Verify the following points before configuring the PS54-G:

You have decided into which network the PS54-G is to be integrated, and you know the current WLAN settings.

The PS54-G is connected to a printer, and to the mains.

Refer to the Hardware Installation Guide if necessary.

The InterCon-NetTool is installed on the PC.

Refer to the 'Installing the InterCon-NetTool' section in the User Manual if necessary.

The PC is able to establish a wireless connection.

Channel: 3

The current print server settings can be seen at any time on the status page. To print a status page press the status button on the print server.

2. Start the InterCon-NetTool and find the PS54-G in the print server list.
