2
Procedure
1. Preparation
• Ensure the power is OFF. Do not connect the Wireless Print Server while power is On.
• Find the Default Server Name for your Wireless Print Server. The Default Server Name is
shown on a sticker on the base of the device. It consists of 8 letters and/or digits. Record
this name; it may be needed during configuration.
2. Connect the Printer or Printers
Connect the printer or plotter cable(s) to the appropriate port(s) on the Wireless Print Server
unit. Parallel port cables should be less than 3 meters long.
3. Connect to your Network
Wired Network Interface
Connect the network cable to the 10/100BaseT LAN connector on the Wireless Print Server.
• To use the LAN interface, the LAN cable needs to be inserted
BEFORE powering ON
• In the default Wireless "Infrastructure" mode, connecting a LAN
cable will disable the Wireless interface. To use both the LAN
and Wireless interfaces, the Wireless mode must be changed to
"Ad-hoc".
Wireless Network Interface
Ensure your Access Point is compatible with the Wireless Print Server's default settings:
• SSID: ANY
• WEP: Disabled
Because the default Wireless mode is "Infrastructure", you cannot
configure the Wireless Print Server via the Wireless interface unless
you have an Access Point.
4. Power Up
Plug in the power adapter cable and power up. Start-up will take only a few seconds.
Use only the Power Supply unit provided with the device. Power Supply units for
different models are not interchangeable.
