LAN Green.The LAN LED serves two purposes.

If the LED is continuously illuminated, the

PrintServer is successfully connected to a

device through the LAN port. If the LED is

flickering, the PrintServer is actively send-

ing or receiving data to the wired network.

WLAN Amber. The WLAN LED will flicker when

the PrintServer is actively sending data to

or receiving data from the wireless net-

work.

ACT Green. The ACT LED will remain continu-

ously lit when a printer is correctly con-

nected to the PrintServer. The LED will

flicker when print jobs are being transmit-

ted to the printer, over both the wired and

wireless networks.

The PrintServer does not have an ON/OFF power switch. Whenever its power

adapter is plugged into a power supply, the PrintServer is powered on. The

PrintServer can be powered on before, during, or after your network is powered

on.

Connecting the PrintServer to Your Network

1. Plug one end of a UTP Category 5 (or better) cable into the PrintServer’s

LAN Port.

2. Connect the other end of the cable into a networked hub or switch.The dis-

tance between the PrintServer and the second device should not exceed 328

feet (100 meters).

3. The LAN LED will become active. If the LAN LED does not light up, see

Appendix A: Troubleshooting for more information.

Connecting a Printer to the PrintServer

1. Connect your printer to the PrintServer’s USB port with your USB cable.

2. Power on your printer.

Connecting the Power

1. Plug the power adapter cord into the PrintServer’s Power port.

2. Plug the power adapter into the wall.

The PrintServer’s hardware installation is now complete, and you are now

ready to install the PrintServer’s software.

Important: Only use the power adapter packaged with the

PrintServer. Using a different power adapter could dam-

age the PrintServer.

Chapter 3: Hardware Installation

Before starting the physical installation, be sure to find the PrintServer’s

Default Name first. The information may be hard to access after the

PrintServer is completely installed in your network and surrounded by wires

and computers.

On the bottom of the PrintServer, there is a white bar code sticker with an SC

number printed on it (for example, SCA71107). This number is the

PrintServer’s Default Name, which you’ll use in the PrintServer driver installa-

tion. Since it is written in hexadecimal form, the SC number may include let-

ters as well as numbers. You can use bi-admin software to find the default

name. For more information, see Chapter 5: Bi-Admin: PrintServer

Management.

Important: Without setting up the wireless functionality with an Instant

Wireless™ Network PC Card, the PrintServer will only function through

your 10/100 Ethernet network. After connecting and configuring an

Instant Wireless™ Network PC Card, the PrintServer will be able to take

advantage of wireless functionality.

Connecting the Wireless-Ready USB PrintServer to Your

Network

1. Insert the Setup Utility CD. A built-in autorun will begin the installation of

the PrintServer’s Bi-Admin Management Utility, and display Figure 4-1.

Click the product you wish to install, followed by the Install tab to continue.

2. The installation routine will begin to run and display Figure 4-2. Close any

other programs you might have running during this installation procedure, and

click the Next button to continue or Cancel to forgo installation.

Chapter 4: Windows Driver Setup

This section installs the PrintServer’s software on your Windows 95, 98,

Millennium, NT, 2000, or XP computers to give them PrintServer printing abil-

ities. The PrintServer is fully compatible with Windows 95, 98, Millennium,

NT 4.0, 2000, and XP environments.

At this point, you must have:

• the PrintServer hardware installed on your network. If not, see Chapter 3:

Hardware Installation.

• TCP/IP installed on each of your computers.

• an IP address assigned to each of the computers on your network. If not, see

Chapter 9: DHCP Support for the Wireless-Ready PrintServer.

• an IP address assigned to the PrintServer. By default the PrintServer has

DHCP enabled. If you need to assign an IP address, go to Chapter 5: Bi-

Admin: PrintServer Management.

This setup should be completed on the network administrator’s computer

before all other users’ computers on the network. The PrintServer’s IP address

will be assigned in this first installation on the network administrator’s com-

puter only, which takes three extra steps.

It is assumed that your CD-ROM drive’s letter name is designated as “D”. If

your CD drive is named another letter, replace all instances of “D” with the

appropriate letter.

If you need to install the PrintServer’s driver on computers without a CD-ROM

drive, you can create a setup disk by using a computer with a CD-ROM drive

to copy the contents of D:\Driver\Win9xNT onto a floppy disk.

Note: After you have run the Autorun program and installed the Bi-

Admin Management Utility, the Autorun will still run every time you

insert the CD. Do NOT install the Bi-Admin Management Utility

again. Click the EXIT tab to prevent duplicate installation.
