Frequently Answers and Questions

How to connect the hardware?

Make sure that the printer is switched off and that the Power Adapter is disconnected from the print server. Locate the serial number, found on the underside label of the print server, and write it down. Connect the printer(s) to the print server. Connect the print server to the network (Ethernet Connector) using a twisted pair RJ45 cable (of category 5 or better). Switch on the printer and make sure it is ready for printing (display showing “Online”, “Ready”, etc.). Connect the Power Adapter to the print server. The power indicator lights up. When the network indicator starts to flash, the print server is correctly connected to the network. Wait 1 minute and press the test button once. A test page will be printed on the connected printer — keep it handy during the installation. The test page will show the assigned IP address of the print server.

How to set the IP address?

If you have a DHCP server on your network, your print server will receive an IP address automatically. The IP address will then appear on the test page printed when you press the test button once. If you are not working in a DHCP network, you need to set the IP address of the print server manually. See "Manual IP Address Assignment" on page 16.

How to upgrade the firmware?

The firmware stored in the print server Flash memory can be upgraded over the network. This allows you to quickly update and enhance its operational features when new print server software becomes available. See "Upgrading the Firmware" on page 173.
