Product Introduction

Figure 1: The HP Print Server Appliance 4200

The HP Print Server Appliance 4200 is a state-of-the-art device for managing and monitoring printing

over a network. It is a network device that has been designed to provide a quick and easy way to add

print capacity without affecting the general purpose server. It has several distinct advantages over

conventional network printing configurations which can result in improved performance in both printing

and file access. These advantages are discussed below.

Microsoft NT domain security, also known as Microsoft NT Authentication and Authority, is a feature

that allows administrators to easily authorize or restrict print administration and services to specific

groups or users by using their existing username and password of the NT 4.0 domain. An NT domain is a

logical grouping of network servers and other computers that share a common security and user account

for each user. Users log on to the domain, not to individual servers in the domain

Installing printers on each client computer is required in order for clients to be able to print using the

appliance. With the Microsoft Point and Print technology, printers are added to the appliance and

associated with a factory-installed driver or a driver already added associated with a printer. Clients can

be easily set up with access to that printer and its driver without having to install the driver again.

Product Overview

http://albatross.rose.hp.com/~lindsay/pdfs/english/prodover.htm (1 of 3) [6/22/2001 11:25:46 AM]

In a typical network, general purpose servers manage both the printing tasks and the file/application

serving. The appliance handles the spooling and network traffic associated with printing, reducing the

workload on the general purpose server.

When printing takes place at remote offices or other locations distant from the servers, the speed of

printing can be degraded. A appliance installed in a remote office can dramatically increase printing

performance by eliminating the need for print requests to travel from the remote office to the central site

and back to a remote office printer.

An additional benefit is that if general purpose file/application servers go down, remote office users can

still print many jobs directly, using the appliance.

Operation and Management

Once the appliance is configured, virtually no management tasks are required. However, system

administrators can monitor print activity, manage the printers, or alter the configuration of the appliance

from anywhere on the network using the appliance's web-based graphical user interface and a supported

browser.

Product Description

The appliance contains a large disk drive for spooling print jobs from clients. Print jobs are stored on the

disk drive. The number of print jobs is only limited by the disk space available on the appliance.

The appliance provides web-accessible printer management and configuration and spools print jobs from

the following clients:

Microsoft Windows 95

●

Microsoft Windows 98●

Microsoft Windows 2000●

Microsoft Windows NT●

Microsoft Windows ME●

UNIX●

Following are some main features of the appliance:

Off-loads spooling from a UNIX or Windows NT server

●

Easy installation●

Easy management

Can be managed from any supported web browser on the network❍

Virtually no management required once installed❍

●

Supports APC uninterruptible power supplies (UPSs) (simple or basic signaling protocol)●

Increases performance of general purpose servers●

Easy replication of configuration and printer drivers across appliances●

Reduces network traffic●

Compatibitility with HP Print Servers

The appliance will work with any HP print server with firmware version x.03 and above.

Compatibitility with Other (Non-HP) Print Servers

Any print server that supports LPD should work with the appliance. The proper LPD remote queue name

for the print server might have to be known. Many print servers will work without specifying a remote

queue name (use the default HP PRINT SERVER setting); however, some require a special string in

order to work. The LPD remote queue name can be obtained from the print server vendor.

Product Updates

When new firmware or other device-specific support information is available for the appliance, the

appliance can be notified automatically. On the TCP/IP page, a field "Check for print server appliance

firmware updates during each web login" can be checked to enable this feature. If this is checked and

new firmware or support information is available, the picture of the applianceappliance image on the

Overview page in the web interface will change.

This feature is enabled by default and can be disabled by unchecking this box. Each time an image is

retrieved, it is logged like any other visit to HP's website. In addition, each request includes the serial

number of the requesting unit. HP uses this to provide support information relative to the specific unit.

No personally identifiable information such as user name, email address, or physical address is gathered

as part of this process. HP does monitor web logs in order to understand our customers and improve our

products. All web transactions are subject to HP's privacy policy which can be found
