8. Double-click on the print server that you want to print to in the list.
The default print server name is TWC_xxxxxx (where xxxxxx is the
last six digits of the MAC address from the label located on the back
of the print server).
9. If you are using TCP/IP (recommended for Windows printing) and
you do not have a DHCP server (see note below), you will need to
manually assign a valid IP Address (if you are not sure what IP
address is valid, ask your network administrator), and click on OK.
10. Configure the 802.11b wireless settings (only for the PocketPro USB
Wireless version). To operate on an 802.11b network, you must set
the wireless mode (ad-hoc or infrastructure), SSID channel, data rate,
and WEP encryption of the PocketPro USB Wireless print server to
the same configuration as the wireless network you want the print
server to communicate on. All nodes of a wireless network need to
have the same settings in order to communicate with each other.
NOTE: If
y
ou are usin
g
DHCP on
y
our network, the print server ma
y
have acquired valid IP settin
g
s at this point and no further
configuration is necessar
y
. This mi
g
ht work well if
y
our DHCP
server allows the print server to keep this address permanentl
y
, but in
most cases,
y
ou will want to use a static address outside the ran
g
e
reserved for DHCP (see
y
our DHCP server documentation for
details). When you confi
g
ure
y
our printer port, the print server will
go to a static IP address. To assign a static IP address, right-click on
the print server in the menu, and then select Confi
g
uration. On the
TCP/IP tab, under IP Address Resolution, select Set Permanent, and
assign a valid static IP address for your network. Click on OK to save
the new settings.
NOTE: Refer to the wireless securit
y
addendum (provided in print
with the PocketPro USB wireless print server and is also available
from the TROY web site at http://www.troygroup.com
) for extra
wireless security configuration instructions.
