[. . . ] If a USB device is "connected" by a PC, we say that PC has the ownership of the USB device. Only one PC can get the ownership of a USB device at the same time. Therefore, if a USB device is connected by one PC, no other PC can connect this USB device until this USB device is disconnected. 4. 3 Subnet Issue Before using the NetUSB technology, you must first make sure that your PC can access ENNUS1 server via TCP/IP. The simplest way to do this is using "Control Center" to search for ENNUS1 server on the network and change its IP address to be the same subnet as your PC. If the ENNUS1 server and your PC are not in the same TCP/IP subnet, Control Center will show the ENNUS1 server in green, as in the following figure. 1. 8 You must change the IP address (or using DHCP) of the ENNUS1 server so that the ENNUS1 server and your PC are in the same subnet. After you finish using the USB device, click the USB device in the Control Center and then click the "Disconnect" button to disconnect the USB device. Other PCs cannot "Connect" the USB device until you "Disconnect" that USB device. That is to say, no two PCs are allowed to connect the same USB device at the same time. 11 4. 6 Auto-Connect Printer The method described in section 4. 5 is called "manual connect", which means users must manually connect and disconnect the USB device before and after using that device, otherwise nobody else can connect that device. However, for printers and scanners (and MFPs), the ENNUS1 server supports auto-connect so users do not need to manually connect/disconnect. This and the next sections show you how to do this. After the driver is installed as described in section 4. 4, you can see a newly created printer in the Control Panel's "Printers and Faxes". Follow the steps below to do a NetUSB auto-connect printing. In the Control Center, click the ENNUS1 server that has the desired printer (or MFP) attached. Click the "Auto Connect Printer" button and choose "Set Auto-Connect Printer". 12 The following window will appear. D. The desired printer must be the Windows printer (this is a logical printer) that matches the printer attached on the ENNUS1 server (this is a physical printer). Then click the "Apply" button. Then, the printer will be marked as an "Auto-Connected Printer" in red. If you choose "Auto-Connected Printer List" in the "Tools" menu, you can see a newly created item that describes the association between the Windows printer and the physical printer on the ENNUS1 server. 13 F. Try to issue a print job to the desired printer. The Control Center will automatically do a connect operation. The print job will be issued to that printer. Even if you have properly setup an auto-connected printer, the Control Center must be running (in the background) while a print job is issued. [. . . ] Click Upload to upload the firmware into the ENNUS1 Server. Please wait about 30 seconds for the upgrading. The ENNUS1 server will automatically reboot after the upgrading. 23 24 Chapter7 Troubleshooting This chapter provides useful information to help you resolve difficulties that you may experience with your ENNUS1 Server. Fault symptoms, possible causes, and remedial actions are provided within a quick reference table. [. . . ]
