VIA OkiLAN 6010e User's Guide IV - 15 TCP/IP Section IV - TCP/IP Other Utilities The IP address can also be set from Novell NetWare using the OkiNet for NetWare utility. Note: The OkiNet for NetWare utilities can only be used if Novell NetWare is installed on your network. Verifying Access to the OkiLAN 6010e Use the ping utility to verify access to the OkiLAN 6010e. ping <IP address of OkiLAN 6010e> If the OkiLAN 6010e does not respond, your network or the device is not configured correctly. · Verify the IP address, default gateway and subnet mask are set to the proper values on the OkiLAN 6010e by printing a configuration sheet. This can be done using either the print configuration sheet button, through the OkiNet or OkiNet for VINES utilities or via telnet. If the settings appear to be correct, try repeating the installation steps. If problems persist, call Okidata Customer Support at 1-800-VIADATA (1-800-654-3282). · IV - 16 VIA OkiLAN 6010e User's Guide Section IV - TCP/IP Chapter 3: TCP/IP Configuration and Printing Overview The OkiLAN 6010e supports printing from computers using TCP/IP and any of the following printing protocols: · · · Line Printer Redirect/Line Printer Daemon (lpr/lpd) File Transfer Protocol (FTP) Printing directly through a TCP port (Raw Port Printing) This chapter presents basic instructions on how to configure your computer to print using Remote LPD and FTP. Specific instructions for several popular computer systems have been documented in Appendix B, Application Considerations. If your specific system is not addressed in this appendix, follow the instructions outlined below. You should also refer to your operating system or computer manual for information about configuring remote network printing. If you are still unable to configure your computer system to print to the OkiLAN 6010e, contact Okidata Customer Support at 1-800-VIADATA (1-800-654-3282). VIA OkiLAN 6010e User's Guide IV - 17 TCP/IP Section IV - TCP/IP Configuring for TCP/IP Network Printing Most computers that support TCP/IP network printing use the Remote Line Printer Daemon (LPD) protocol. This feature is useful for printing UNIX text files. NF Use the NF suffix at the end of the Remote Print Queue Name, before the port number. Example: queueNF2 The OkiLAN 6010e inserts a carriage-return character into the print job immediately before each line-feed character. This feature is useful for printing UNIX text files. This option differs from LF in that form feed is not added to the end of jobs. Configuring a BSD-Style Print Queue For remote BSD-Style LPD printing, add the OkiLAN 6010e as a remote printer in the "/etc/printcap" database to each host printing to the OkiLAN 6010e. If you are unfamiliar with PRINTCAP, consult your local documentation. IV - 20 VIA OkiLAN 6010e User's Guide Section IV - TCP/IP The entry should be similar to the following: local_print_queue_name|[printer_model_and_manufacturer]:\ :lp=:mx#0:rm=OkiLAN 6010e_name:\ :rp=remote_print_queue_name:\ :sd=path_to_spool_directory:lf=just log_file_name local_print_queue_name The local_print_queue_name defines the name of the printcap entry. It is used by the lpr/lpd utilities to specify which printcap entry is being referenced. Additional printcap entries can be added as needed for different queue types. Each entry must have a unique local_print_queue_name and a different spool directory to work properly. When you are ready to print, use the local_print_queue_name that matches the data type of the file to be printed. OkiLAN 6010e_name This is the name (alias) of the OkiLAN 6010e. [. . . ] Click OK. VIA OkiLAN 6010e User's Guide V - 21 Windows Printing Section V - Windows Printing Section V - Windows Printing You will enter into the Add OkiLAN 6010e Connect Port screen where there will be a list of all OkiLAN 6010e print servers available on the local subnet. V - 22 VIA OkiLAN 6010e User's Guide 6. If the port you wish to add is listed in the Ports available on local subnet window, select the port name and click the Add button. If the port you wish to use is not listed, click the Locate non-local device button and enter the Static IP Address used for the print server. Note: The OkiLAN 6010e Connect discovery feature will relocate a print server by the port name, even if the IP address changes. [. . . ]
