Windows NT 4.0 1. Double-click the Network icon in the Control Panel to check whether the TCP/IP Protocol is installed. If it is already installed, click Cancel and skip to the Installing TMNet WinConfig section. If the component is not installed, click Add. . 2. Select the TCP/IP protocol and click OK. 3-4 Utilities Rev.
UB-E02 Technical Reference Guide 3. If you continue installing the TCP/IP protocol, the TCP/IP Configuration dialog box appears, and you can set the IP address. Ask your network administrator for your IP address. Note: To check the IP address which has already been assigned, click the Protocols tab in the Network dialog box, select TCP/IP Protocol, and then click the Properties button. 4. When the installation is complete, check items such as the IP address to make sure they have been entered correctly.
2. Click Properties and check whether the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) check box is checked. If not, click the check box. Note: After the TCP/IP is installed, restart your computer and move on to the Installing EPSON TMNet WinConfig section. 3.1.1.2 Installing EPSON TMNet WinConfig Note: After the EPSON TMNet WinConfig is installed, if you add or remove protocols or services, the EPSON TMNet WinConfig might not work correctly. In this case, uninstall the EPSON TMNet WinConfig and reinstall it.
UB-E02 Technical Reference Guide Installation with Windows 95 1. Unzip the file and start Setup.exe. 2. Install the EPSON TMNet WinConfig, following the instructions shown on your display. 3. When the installation is finished, click a check box, if necessary and then click Finish. Rev.
3.1.1.3 Setting with the EPSON TMNet WinConfig CAUTION: Because the same IP address is set for all UB-E02 units in the factory, do not connect more than one UB-E02 whose IP address is not changed from the factory setting. When you set the IP address, connect the UB-E02 to the network and set the IP address one by one. Be sure not to turn off the printer or send printing data to the printer while setting. Do not use the same IP address as that of other network devices or PCs. Windows 95 1.
UB-E02 Technical Reference Guide CAUTION: When you cannot check the MAC address on the label on the UB-E02 that is installed on the printer, be sure to finish the TM Net WinConfig by clicking Close from the Device tab; then turn off the printer and remove the UB-E02 to check it. 4. Double-click the TCP/IP tab. 5. You can acquire the IP address by Auto or Manual setting. ❏ Auto setting: Acquire the IP address, subnet mask, and default gate way from DHCP server. A DHCP server is required.
Note: To confirm the current setting, print out the status sheet. Press down the switch more than 3 seconds in the printable state; then the status sheet is printed out. 6. Click the OK button. 7. Click the OK button again to be sure. 8. Enter the password set in the print server; then click OK. If the password is not set, just click OK without entering the password. CAUTION: After clicking OK, you must not turn off the printer while the new settings are being sent to the UB-E02. 9.
UB-E02 Technical Reference Guide 3.1.2 Setting the IP Address Using the arp/ping Command You can set the IP Address using the arp/ping command. This way of setting is available with the host, which is in the same segment as that of the UB-E02. CAUTION: When setting the IP address of the UB-E02, do not use the same IP addresses as that of other network devices or PCs. Here is an example of setting the IP address to 192.168.100.201.
4. Set the IP address to the UB-E02 using the ping command. • Example: ping 192.168.100.201 5.
