DP-301P Print Server Hardware Guide 0 A BOUT THIS G UIDE This guide describes the D-Link DP-301P Multiprotocol Ethernet/Fast Ethernet Print Server. DP-301P features, installation procedures, and troubleshooting methods are explained in detail. The software and related documentation included with your DP-301P are important parts of the DP-301P package. For information on installing and using the included software, see the PS Admin User’s Guide.
DP-301P Print Server Hardware Guide 1 1 I NTRODUCTION The DP-301P is a pocket-sized device for connecting a printer directly to an Ethernet or Fast Ethernet local-area network (LAN). The DP-301P will manage the flow of data from networked computers to the connected printer, delivering jobs to the printer much faster than a computer acting as a file server or print server can.
DP-301P Print Server Hardware Guide because the DP-301P connects to your file servers through the network, the printer can be stationed at the location of maximum convenience to users. The DP-301P offers extraordinary flexibility, and works with all major network operating systems and protocols: ♦ IPX/SPX Novell NetWare 3.x and 4.
DP-301P Print Server Hardware Guide Front The panel on which the DP-301P’s network port, DC power jack, and light-emitting diode (LED) indicators appear is referred to in this guide as the device’s “front” section.
DP-301P Print Server Hardware Guide Indicators The DP-301P’s front panel includes three indicator lights. See "Power-up and Self-Test," Chapter 2, for a description of indicator behavior upon device startup. During operation following a normal startup, the indicators provide the following status signals: ♦ Pw/Tx Steady or flashing green confirms power on. This indicator blinks (goes off briefly) when the DP-301P is transmitting to the network.
DP-301P Print Server Hardware Guide Printer Port The printer port can be configured using the PS Admin program, or by commands issued to the DP-301P via Telnet. See the PS Admin User’s Guide for configuration procedures.
2 2 U NPACKING AND I NSTALLATION This chapter explains how to install your DP-301P print server and connect it to the network. It also describes the automatic power-on self-test. Unpacking and Inspection Carefully remove all items from the package.
DP-301P Print Server Hardware Guide Installing the DP-301P Follow these steps for a trouble-free start of print-server operations with your DP-301P. Please take particular notice of the warning in step 4: the network connection should be made before supplying power to the DP-301P. 1. Confirm proper operation of the printer to be connected to the DP-301P. 2. When you have confirmed proper operation of the printer, switch its power off. 3. Confirm that your network is operating normally. 4.
DP-301P Print Server Hardware Guide Power-up and Self-test Whenever the DP-301P is powered up, two testing procedures follow automatically. The first procedure is a programmed series of flashes intended to confirm proper operation of the three LED indicators. The second procedure comprises programmed tests of the DP-301P’s internal circuitry. If any fault is found during the circuitry tests, testing stops and a continuous pattern of flashes signals the nature of the fault.
