0 ABOUT THIS GUIDE

This manual describes the 3 Parallel Port Multi-protocol Wireless Print

Server, including a description of the print server’s features, as well as

the print server installation procedures and troubleshooting self-test

results.

For information about software configuration of the Print Server to

allow it to be used with your network, consult the PS Admin User’s

Guide included with your Print Server.

1 INTRODUCTION

The Print Server is a compact wireless print server which connects

to your network through an access point under the infrastructure

mode or can be used in ad-hoc mode for direct communication

between PC/Notebook and print server anywhere you wish to locate

wireless printer services. It manages the flow of print files from your

workstations or file servers to its connected printers, delivering print

jobs to high-performance printers much faster than a file server or a

PC acting as a print server can.

Print Server Features

The Print Server improves network printing services in three ways:

♦The Print Server picks up the workload of managing print file

traffic to its connected printers. This provides workload relief to

your file servers, and allows the file servers' full capacity to be used

for file access or other direct services to network users. On peer-

to-peer networks, workstations can print directly to the Print Server

without increasing the load of another workstation or server.

♦The Print Server's parallel printer ports are IEEE 1284 compliant

high-speed bi-directional ports. High-speed laser printers connected

to the Print Server's parallel ports can be operated at their full

capacity.

♦Because the Print Server is very portable and inexpensive

compared to a PC-based print server, and because the Print Server

connects to your file servers through the network, printers can be

deployed to locations of maximum convenience to users.

The Print Server is best used with TCP/IP Protocol although NetBeui

and AppleTalk are also supported..

♦TCP/IP

UNIX LPR/LPD (HP-UX, SunOS, Solaris, SCO, UnixWare, IBM

AIX)

Windows NT/2000, Windows 95/98/Me

NetWare 5.x NDPS LPR Remote Printing (TCP/IP)

♦NetBEUI

Windows NT/2000, Windows 95/98/Me, Windows for Workgroups,

Microsoft LAN Manager, IBM LAN Server

♦AppleTalk

MacOS EtherTalk

Windows-based setup and administration software, PS Admin, is

supplied with the Print Server, making configuration and management

quick and easy. The Print Server also supports configuration and

management via the telnet protocol for networks without Windows-

compatible machines. A Web-base management interface is also

included.

External Features

This section describes the externally visible features of the DP313

Wireless Print Server.

Port Connectors

The Print Server’s three printer ports are located on its rear panel.

Three identical parallel ports are labeled LPT1, LPT2 and LPT3.

These printer ports are independently configurable using the PS Admin

program or the print server’s telnet interface. (See the PS Admin

User’s Guide for information about configuring the print server’s )

The print server also supports web configuration permitting users to

configure settings through the web browser. DP-313 default IP

address as follows:

♦Default IP address –192.168.0.1

♦Subnet Mask –255.255.255.0

Note:-

The PC’s IP address must correspond with the print server’s IP

address in the same segment for the two devices to communicate.

Rear Panel

Wireless DIP Switch

The Print Server’s rear panel features a DIP switch allowing two

different modes of ad-hoc and infrastructure. In ad-hoc mode there

are 2 types of settings, 802.11 ad-hoc mode and Proprietary ad-hoc

mode where there is direct communication between PC/Notebook and

print server.

Under infrastructure mode there are 2 types of settings, Cfg ESS-ID

mode and Any ESS-ID mode where communication between

PC/Notebook and print server is through the Access Point acting as a

bridge between wired and wireless network.

Reset Button

Reset of the unit will be initiated when the reset button is pressed

once and then LEDs on LPT1, LPT2 & LPT3 begins to flash.

Factory Reset will be initiated when the reset button is pressed for

three seconds or when the LEDs on LPT1, LPT2 & LPT3 begins to

light up solid. Release the reset button and LPT1, LPT2, & LPT3

LEDs will begin to flash indicating the print server is changing to

factory reset. When factory reset is completed the print server’s

wireless setting will be set to default on channel 6 and ESS-ID is set as

‘default’.

DC Power Connector

The DC power input connector is located on the Print Server’s rear

panel and is labeled DC 5V.

LED Indicators

The front panel of the Print Server features several LED indicators:

Front Panel LED Indicators

♦Power

◊Steady green light confirms that the Print Server is powered

on.

♦Link/Act

◊In infrastructure mode steady or flashing green light confirms

the Print Server has a good connection to the Access Point.

◊In ad-hoc mode steady or flashing green light confirms

connection to other PC/Notebook.

◊The indicator blinks off briefly to indicate that the Print Server is

receiving/transmitting from/to the wireless network.

♦Wireless Quality (3)

◊These LED indicator lights show that the Print Server has

wireless quality connections to the network in either ad-hoc or

infrastructure mode.

◊If only the first Wireless LED indicator lights up, it indicates

poor wireless quality connection.

◊When the first & second LED indicator lights up simultaneously,

it indicates a moderate wireless quality connection.

◊If all three LED indicators light up simultaneously, it shows a

high quality wireless connection.

♦LPT1, LPT2, LPT3

◊These LED indicators light to show that the Print Server is

transferring print data through the appropriate parallel port.

These three indicators are also used by the print server’s

power-on self test (POST) to indicate any hardware failures.

2 UNPACKING AND

INSTALLATION

This chapter explains how to install your Print Server and connect it to

the network. It also describes the print server self diagnostics.

Unpacking and Inspecting the Print

Server

Carefully remove all items from the package. In addition to this

Hardware User’s Guide, be certain that you have:

♦DP-313 Wireless Print Server

♦Power Adapter

♦User’s Manual

♦Print Server Software

♦Quick Installation Guide

If any item is missing, or if you find any damage or mismatch, promptly

contact your dealer for assistance.

Installing the Print Server

WARNING: Configuration problems may result if the Print

Server is powered up without first

establishing its network connection. Follow

this procedure to avoid complications at the

configuration stage.

1. Confirm proper operation of each of the printers to be connected to the

Print Server.

2. When you have confirmed proper operation of each printer, switch its

power off.

3. Confirm that your wireless network is operating normally.

4. (a)Ad-Hoc Mode

uBefore initiating set-up procedure for the print server make

sure your wireless PCMCIA card on your PC/Notebook is

set to channel 6 with ESS-ID set as ‘default’ in ad-hoc

mode.

uMake sure the DIP switch on the print server is positioned

in the ad-hoc mode.

uPress the Reset button on the print server for three seconds

until the LPT begins to light up initiating the factory reset.

uWhen factory reset is completed the print server will be set

to default on channel 6 and ESS-ID is set as ‘default’.

Note 1:

When changes are made on the print server’s wireless channel and

ESS-ID it must correspond to the PC/Notebook channel and ESS-ID

for direct wireless communication.
