Quick Step (OS/2 Warp Server V 4.0)

Step-by-Step Setup for IBM TCP/IP for OS/2

TCP/IP Protocol Configuration

1 Acquire two IP addresses for use on your server and your DocuPrint printer.

2 Install TCP/IP for OS/2. Remember to open LAN Adapter and Protocol Support (LAPS/MPTS, etc.) and configure the TCP/IP protocol for your network adapter. (See your OS/2 documentation for configuring network adapters for the TCP/IP protocol.)

3 Open (double-click) TCP/IP Configuration Object.

Click the Printing tab and enter the following:

REMOTE PRINT SERVER = Printer IP Address in 32-bit dotted decimal notation (e.g. 127.0.0.0).

REMOTE PRINT SERVER’S PRINTER = ps (Enter ps without quotes and in lowercase.)

MAXIMUM NUMBER OF LPD PORTS = Enter a number between 2 and 64 inclusive.

FOR OS/2 PRINTING ONLY (NO WIN-OS/2) Click the Autostart tab. Highlight lprportd, then click Autostart Service, Foreground Session and Minimized.

Close the TCP/IP Configuration Windows. Click SAVE, then reply YES to Update CONFIG.SYS.

Shutdown your server/workstation and reboot.

Once completed and you have rebooted, use the “ping” command at an OS/2 Command Prompt to ping your server/workstation’s IP address. Repeat the ping command using your DocuPrint printer’s IP Address to confirm that your printer is configured properly for using TCP/IP.

Network Laser Printers specifications

Xerox Network Laser Printers are a vital asset for businesses seeking reliability, speed, and high-quality output in their printing needs. Renowned for their innovative technology and robust performance, these printers have evolved to meet the demands of modern office environments.

One of the standout features of Xerox Network Laser Printers is their impressive printing speed. Many models can produce up to 100 pages per minute, ensuring that large print jobs are completed in a timely fashion. This speed is complemented by a rapid first-page-out time, which minimizes waiting periods for users.

These printers are equipped with advanced laser technology, which delivers sharp text and vibrant graphics. The high-resolution printing capability, often reaching up to 1200 x 2400 dpi, ensures that images and text are crisp, making them suitable for professional documents and marketing materials. Additionally, the use of various media sizes and types allows flexibility, supporting everything from standard letter-size paper to envelopes and more specialized media.

Xerox Network Laser Printers are designed with productivity in mind. Features such as automatic double-sided printing help to save paper and reduce environmental impact, while large paper trays and high-capacity toner cartridges minimize interruptions for refills. Many models also support high-volume printing, making them ideal for busy workgroups.

Connectivity is another key characteristic of these printers. They often come with built-in support for various networking options, including Ethernet and wireless connectivity, allowing multiple users to access the printer from different locations. The ability to print from mobile devices and cloud services further enhances their versatility in today's digital workspace.

Security features are paramount in protecting sensitive information. Xerox printers offer secure printing solutions, user authentication, and encrypted data transmission, safeguarding company data from unauthorized access.

User-friendly interfaces, often including touch screens and intuitive control panels, allow users to navigate printer settings with ease. Moreover, many models are compatible with various software and cloud applications, streamlining the workflow.

With a reputation for durability and low total cost of ownership, Xerox Network Laser Printers are an excellent investment for businesses aiming to enhance their printing capabilities. Whether for demanding offices or smaller enterprises, these printers deliver unmatched performance, quality, and efficiency, making them a leader in the laser printing market.
