G E T T I N G S TA R T E D 1 The Monarch 7411 Print Server lets you communicate with the Monarch 9825 printer on a wired Ethernet 802.3 network, or on an 802.11b or 802.11g wireless network. 802.11b/g refers to 802.11b and 802.11g in this manual. Information in this document supercedes information in previous versions. Check our Web site (www.monarch.com) for the latest documentation and release information.
System Requirements To use the print server for printing from a wireless network, you need an 802.11b/g wireless network. The wireless network consists of either of the following: ♦ An 802.11b/g wireless enabled PC printing straight to the printer (Ad-Hoc or Peer-to-Peer Mode). ♦ An 802.11b/g wireless access point allowing wireless and wired Ethernet enabled computers to print to the print server (Infrastructure Mode). To configure and print, you need the following: 1.
Checking the Print Server Hardware The print server comes preinstalled and tested in your printer. Do not plug any cables into the parallel port when using the print server. A printer with this print server cannot use the parallel port. However, the serial port is still active.
Verifying Successful Installation When the print server is turned on, it goes through the following startup sequence: ♦ It runs through a set of power-up diagnostics for a few seconds. The top orange light comes on when the unit is turned on. The middle light comes on solid yellow when an Ethernet link (wired 10baseT) is established. The bottom comes on solid green when an Ethernet (wired 100baseTX) link is established. Both the yellow and green lights will come on solid when a wireless link is established.
Sample Test Page The test page is best displayed using 4” wide by 6” long labels. If the label is too small, some information may print outside the label edges.

C O N F I G U R I N G T H E 8 0 2 . 11 b / g AND IP SETTINGS 2 Configuring the Print Server To configure the print server for a 802.11b/g wireless network, you must set the wireless mode (Ad-Hoc or infrastructure), SSID, channel (Ad-Hoc mode only), data rate and security. All nodes of a wireless network need to have the same settings in order to communicate with each other. Before You Begin Properly configure your computer for communication on a wireless network before you continue.
♦ If you are using TCP/IP, note your computer’s IP address. The print server needs to be on the same IP segment as the other nodes on your network in order to communicate. ♦ You should have a good signal between your computer and the access point. Installing the Software The following operating systems are supported: Microsoft Windows NT 4, 2000, and XP. Follow these steps to install the Monarch® NetManager software and configure the print server. You can also download the utility from our Web site. 1.
Note: If the wireless signal is less than 50% on the Wireless Status screen, printing performance could be affected. To improve the signal strength, try moving the print server closer to the computer or access point and away from other radio devices such as Bluetooth® wireless devices, microwave ovens, or 2.4 gigahertz cordless phones. 6. Configure your print server to the settings you need.
2-4 Ethernet Operating Instructions
MANAGEMENT METHODS 3 There are a variety of ways to configure and monitor the print server. These methods are: Web browser, NetMgr, MonarchNet Console, HP JetAdmin, HP Web JetAdmin, or Telnet. For Telnet/console mode information, see Chapter 6, “Telnet Console Commands.” MonarchNet Console This is a command-line oriented console that contains features not available through NetManager or a Web browser. The default password is access.
Microsoft Windows Network Configuration The print server includes the easy-to-use NetManager software for printing from Windows computers over an 802.11b/g wireless link. This software creates a network port on the Windows system, which acts like a normal parallel port. As a result, it works transparently with any standard Windows printer driver and application program. Because this software uses the industry-standard TCP/IP protocol, it can be used with IP routers and other IP-based equipment.
Berkeley UNIX Host Configuration Berkeley UNIX host computers include Linux, Digital Equipment Corporation Digital UNIX, OSF/1, and ULTRIX; Compaq Tru64 UNIX; SunOS (not Solaris), SCO UNIX; and many others. Sun Solaris, HP/UX, IBM AIX users should skip to the appropriate sections later in this manual. ♦ Do not use the Linux X-Windows graphical user interface printer configuration utility, because it does not work with Paxar print servers.
3. Create the spool directory: The lpd spool directory is usually located in the /usr/spool directory. To create a new spool directory, use the mkdir command; for example: mkdir /usr/spool/lpd/MonarchPrinter 4. Print using the standard lpr command: lpr –PMonarchPrinter filename 5.
7. Use the Printer Manager in the Admintool utility under Open Windows as follows: Select Edit Select Add Select Add Access to Remote Printer At the PrinterName prompt, type any name for the print queue At the Printer Server prompt, type: name\!servicename (for example, MonarchPrinter\!BINARY_P1), where: name matches the print server name as entered in the host’s table. servicename is the print service name. For binary graphics files use the service BINARY_P1; for text files use the service TEXT_P1. 8.
HP/UX Configuration To configure a print server using HP/UX 10.x, use the same program and these steps: 1. When you get a list of options, select Printers and Plotters. 2. Select LP Spooler. 3. Select Printers and Plotters. 4. Select Actions and then Add Remote Printer/Plotter. 5. Enter any name as the Printer Name (this is the name of the print queue). 6. Enter the IP address of the print server as the Remote System Name. 7.

Basic Security Configurations There are two main decisions to be made when choosing wireless security: encryption method and authentication protocol. The encryption method determines the algorithm used to encrypt the message. The authentication type specifies how users are identified and verified on a network.
Authentication Protocol RADIUS Server Protocol Type User ID & Password Enterprise LEAP Certificate Private Key Info File No N/A PEAP* TLS TTLS N/A PAP or MSCHAPv2 EAPFAST Personal PSK Required Optional* Required* N/A PAC* N/A N/A *PEAP This is only for server-side certificates. *Optional Leaving the Certificate Root Key and the Certificate CN (common) names blank, no validation of the host certificate is performed. The values are set to “null” and all host certificates are accepted.
See the following table of acceptable combinations: Encryption Authentication Open Shared WEP WPA, WPA (TKIP), WPA2 Static No Dynamic Yes PSK LEAP PEAP EAP-FAST TLS* TTLS * Load the local key before enabling TLS.
TROUBLESHOOTING 5 Verify that the printer is operating properly: 1. Is the printer online and does it have supplies? 2. If the printer is working correctly, test the connection between the printer and the print server by pushing the test button on the back of the printer for less than five seconds. 3. If the test page does not print, try resetting the print server to factory defaults by holding the test button for more than five seconds.
If the print server is operating properly, all three LEDs blink momentarily, then indicate the following activity: LED Indicators Orange Yellow Green Yellow & Green 4.
5. On the test label, verify your IP and WiFi settings. If using an Ethernet cable, the “Wired/Wireless:” value should be “WIRED”. If using RF, the setting should be “WIRELESS”. Check the “Actual SSID” and the “WiFi Sig Qual”. Is the actual SSID correct? Is the signal quality greater than zero? If the signal quality is 0, you lost connection with the access point. If it is very low, you may be experiencing interference or are very close to being out of range or an access point.
If the connection succeeds, press Ctrl-E on your keyboard. This sends an ENQ request. The printer responds with three characters. Depending upon the Telnet being used, you may not see the first character, as it is a hex 05 value. The other two characters are ASCII characters. You see A@ which means the printer is online and waiting. Alternatively, you can type {J,2} The printer responds with {J,0,0,””,””} . Note: 9. The J must be capital.
Troubleshooting Wireless Configuration Problems 1. Your computer’s wireless adapter and/or access point should be configured to match your print server. 2. The print server should be in range of the printer (90 meters or 300 feet) and your PC and away from metal objects and other devices with radio signals (Bluetooth®, 2.4 GHz cordless phones, and microwaves). 3. If you are connecting through an access point, use infrastructure mode.
Troubleshooting Network Configuration ♦ If you are using TCP/IP, your computer and the print server should be on the same IP segment or can reach each other with a PING command from the host. The IP address you assign to the print server must be on the same logical network as your host computers. ♦ If your print server is set to Auto or DHCP for obtaining an IP address, the print server’s IP address can change.
TELNET CONSOLE COMMANDS 6 Use this chapter to configure the print server using Telnet. You must have a basic understanding of Telnet commands. For initial setup, do not use Telnet. Use Auto-discover mode. Once you have the IP address, you can use Telnet or a Web browser. You can use Telnet if you do not have access to the Monarch® NetManager software. Note: The default port is Port 23.
5. To view the current wireless settings, type sh en (show wireless settings) or sh nw (show network settings) and press Enter: WiFi Mode = INFRASTRUCTURE WiFi SSID: ABC1234 Speed = 54 International Roaming: Flexible Dynamic Frequency Selection: Unsupported Regulatory Domain = USI WiFi FW Ver = 2.13.10.0 LMAC, 2.12.18.

For example, c:\program files\monarch softw are\mpcl toolbox\9855.phu An interface between a wireless network and a wired network. Access points can be used with Ethernet or other communications to enable roaming throughout a facility. A wireless network composed of devices that contain a network interface card and no access point.
Channel or RF Channel DHCP or Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) FAST (Flexible Authentication via Secure Tunneling) Gatew ay Infrastructure Mode IP Address LAN or Local Area Netw ork LEAP (Lightw eight Extensible Authentication Protocol) You can select which channel your network devices use to communicate. All devices must be on the same channel to communicate in Ad-Hoc mode. Other radio devices such as Bluetooth® wireless devices, microwave ovens, or 2.
LPD/LPR MAC Address or Media Access Control MSCHAPv2 (Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol) NIC or Netw ork Interface Card Node Open Authentication PAP (Password Authentication Protocol) Pathname PEAP (Protected Extensible Authentication Protocol) Ping Protocol A printer protocol that uses TCP/IP to establish connections between printers on a network. Also known as Line Printer Daemon/Line Printer Remote. A hardware address (6-byte) that uniquely identifies each node of a network.
PSK (Pre-Shared Key) Authentication mode of WPA used in SOHO environments. The key value (or pass-phrase) is used for network authentication only (not data encryption). It does not use a RADIUS server like the other modes, but uses a shared key to provide the initial authentication with the access point or host. RADIUS (Remote Authentication DialIn Server) RARP or Reverse Address Resolution Protocol This is an authentication server, such as the Cisco® ACS, Microsoft® IAS, etc.
SSID or Service Set Identifier A unique identifier that must match for all nodes on a subnetwork to communicate with each other. It consists of up to 32 characters (any printable character, including spaces). If using the space character, it must be enclosed in quotation marks. It is case-sensitive. Static Method One of the available boot methods. Use static if your network uses fixed configuration. The IP address remains the same every time the device connects to the network.
WEP or Wired Equivalent Privacy A security protocol for wireless local area networks. WEP was designed to provide the same level of security as that of a wired network, which is inherently more secure than a wireless network because wired networks are easily protected against unauthorized access.
