Basic Installation Section 3 Basic Installation Quick overview Follow these steps to make your printer network ready: 1. Connect the Hardware, on page 13 2. Assign an IP Address to the Print Server, on page 14 3. Making Network Printers available for printing on your PC, on page 18 Connect the Hardware 1. Make sure that the printer is switched off and that the Power Adapter is disconnected from the print server. 2.
Basic Installation Assign an IP Address to the Print Server Methods for Setting the IP Address You can obtain an IP address for your print server by using one of the following methods, depending on your network operating environment. See IP Addressing, on page 123 for detailed instructions on IP address management.
Basic Installation Notes: • The ability to set the IP address with ARP and PING will only be enabled the first 10 minutes after restarting the print server. • You need root privileges on your UNIX, Linux and Mac OS X system, or administrator privileges on a Windows NT server to set the IP address using RARP, BOOTP, DHCP and to add an entry to the ARP table with the command 'arp -s'. • When assigning an IP address manually, you must utilize a unique IP address that is not already in use in your network.
Basic Installation Obtain an IP Address using RARP in UNIX/Linux Follow the instructions below to set the IP address using RARP. Append the following line to your Ethernet Address table. This is typically located in the /etc/ethers file: Example: 00:40:8c:10:00:86 npsname 1. Update, if necessary, your host table and alias name databases as required by your system. 2. If it is not already running, start the RARP daemon.
Basic Installation Note: • When you execute the ping command for the first time, you will experience a significantly longer response time than is usual. • The ability to set the IP address with ARP and PING will only be enabled the first 10 minutes after restarting the print server. • By using the arp -d command, the static entry in the arp table is removed from the host’s cache memory. Set the IP Address using ARP in UNIX/Linux and Mac OS X 1.
Basic Installation Making Network Printers available for printing on your PC Configuration Methods Once you have set the IP address of your print server, your network printer can be added to any PC on your network. The method that you choose should be dictated by your printing requirements and your supported network environments.

Logical Printers Section 11 Logical Printers The print server has a powerful facility for altering the print data. This means that your desired print format can be realized on any type of printer.
Logical Printers Character Set Conversion A common problem in a multiple host environment is that different hosts use different ASCII character sets. As a result of this, language specific characters (such as å ü ô ñ) are sometimes printed incorrectly. The Axis Network Print Server solution to this problem is to assign a character set conversion filter to a logical printer, and then link that logical printer to the host causing the problem.
Logical Printers Adding Strings Before and After Print Jobs These string functions provide a way to send printer control commands before and after each print job. They may be specified individually for each logical printer. All strings are entered as hexadecimal byte values. Example: Assume that the logical printer PR5 is configured as a PostScript printer and that you want to append the PostScript End of File character (hex 04) after each print job.
Logical Printers Follow the instructions below to substitute command strings: 1. From the print server’s internal Web page, select Admin | Logical Printers. 2. Select the PR1 Web page. 3. Enter the string 01 0A 02 0D 0A in the String Substitutions text field. Hex Code 01 0A 02 0D 0A Explanation length of the string you want to replace the string you want to replace length of the substitute string the substitute string 4. Click the OK button.
Logical Printers ASCII to Postscript Conversion The AXIS 5400+/AXIS 5600+ logical printers can translate ASCII print data into PostScript format. This makes it possible to print on a PostScript printer from a host that does not support PostScript. The conversion is selected by activating a filter that converts ASCII data into Postscript. This filter can be activated individually for each logical printer. Activate your desired filter by setting the Printer Language Translation (PRx_FILT.) parameter.
Logical Printers 3. Set the Printer Language Translation parameter to POSTSCR. 4. Set the PostScript Page Size parameter to LETTER. 5. Set the PostScript Page Orientation parameter to LANDS. 6. Enter the string 48 0 120 60 30 50 in the PostScript Page Format text field. Hex code 48 0 120 60 30 50 Explanation 48 lines per page disable line wrap 120 = 12 characters per inch 60 = 6 lines per inch 30 = 3 mm left margin 50 = 5 mm top margin 7. Enter the string Helvetica in the PostScript Font text field. 8.
Logical Printers Read Back of information The AXIS 5400+/AXIS 5600+ supports bi-directional printing. The information from the printer is read back on the parallel port when the parameter Read Back Port (PRx_IN.) has the default setting of AUTO. However, it is required that the printer also supports bi-directional printing. Please refer to your printer documentation for further details regarding bi-directional printing support.
IP Addressing Section 12 IP Address and Subnet Mask IP Addressing The print server must be correctly configured with the following information to function properly: • • • an IP address a subnet mask a default gateway (or router) IP Address Each device on your network must have a unique IP address to operate correctly. An IP address identifies the address of the device to which data is being sent and the address of the destination network. IP addresses have the format n.n.n.
IP Addressing Type Two In larger (Class B) networks, where there are more devices, the IP address of ‘162.168.3.191’ is split into two parts but is structured differently: • Part one (‘162.168’) identifies the network on which the device resides. • Part two (‘.3.191’) identifies the device within the network. This type of IP Address operates on a subnet mask of ‘255.255.0.0’. Default Gateway Examples 1.
IP Addressing Auto-IP Addressing Network devices use automatic IP addressing if they are configured to acquire an address using DHCP but are unable to contact a DHCP server. Automatic IP addressing is a scheme where devices allocate themselves an IP address at random from the industry standard subnet of 169.254.x.x (with a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0). If two devices allocate themselves the same address, the conflict is detected and one of the devices allocates itself a new address.
IP Addressing Setting the IP Address using DHCP Follow the instructions below to download the IP address using DHCP: 1. Edit or create a scope in the DHCP manager of the DHCP daemon. The entries included in this scope should contain the following parameters: • range of IP addresses • subnet mask • default router IP address • WINS server IP address(es) or DDNS server IP address(es) • lease duration 2. Activate the scope. The print server automatically downloads the DHCP parameters.
The Test Button Section 13 The Test Button The test button is located on the front right hand side of the AXIS 5400+/AXIS 5600+ and is used for: • Printing a test page to check the connection to the printer. • Printing a server report and parameter list. • Performing a Factory Default of the print server. If you want to change any of the parameters, use one of the methods described in Management and Configuration, on page 84. Printing a Test Page Press the test button once to print a test page.
Troubleshooting Section 14 Troubleshooting This section provides useful information to help you resolve difficulties you might have with your AXIS 5400+/AXIS 5600+. Fault symptoms, possible causes and remedial actions are provided within a quick reference table. Please visit the Axis Web site for latest troubleshooting tips, more support and additional help through the FAQ database or to fill in and submit a Support question.
Troubleshooting IP Address Check with Ping Windows: By sending a data packet to a specific IP address and waiting for a reply, Ping can determine whether that IP address is accessible. Ping can also help you to determine IP address conflicts with your AXIS 5400+/AXIS 5600+ and troubleshoot TCP/IP problems on the network. Follow the instructions below to diagnose your problem. Open a Command Prompt and enter the following commands: Syntax ping Example ping 192.168.3.

The Parameter List SNMP Device Index When using the TCP/IP protocol (and if the printer driver permits), the print server can use SNMP Status to find out if the printer is ready to accept a new job. By default, Windows uses the value “1” when addressing an SNMP device, which is correct for single port print servers. For a multiport print server, obtain the SNMP Device Index from the table below.
The Parameter List 4. Click Configure Port... 5. Ensure that SNMP Status Enabled is ticked and enter the correct index number in SNMP Device Index, taken from the table above (3 in this example). 6. Click OK and Close.

A version of the UNIX operating system from IBM that runs on various IBM computers including Mainframe systems. A local area network protocol for communication between Apple Computer products and other computers and peripherals. Address Resolution Protocol. A protocol within the TCP/IP suite of network protocols that allows a host to find the physical address of a node on the same network.
Glossary DHCP Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. Enables e.g. a print server to automatically obtain an unused IP address from the DHCP server. To fully benefit from this method, the print server also supports DDNS, which is available in Windows 2000 networks. Digital Certificate DNS Dynamic DNS Firmware Flash Memory FTP HTML HTTP HTTPS IP 154 Used to create digital signatures and public/private key pairs for secure Web services. Domain Name System. Resolves host names into IP addresses.
Glossary Linux An open source implementation of UNIX. LLC Logical Link Control. An additional data link layer protocol which operates on top of the MAC protocol defined in the original Ethernet standard (the "Blue Book"). LPD The Line Printer Daemon is a protocol for transferring print jobs between hosts. This is the recommended method for UNIX/Linux systems, but some System V versions do not support LPD.
