LPV-WL11G User’s Manual (Introduction) Preface This section explains the organization of the LPV2-WS11GC manual. Organization of the LPV2-WS11GC Manual The LPV2-WS11GC user’s manual consists of Introduction, Application and Settings. The contents are: Easy Setting Guide Introduction is intended for those who are not familiar with local area networks (LANs) and their connections. Operation procedures are described with screen shots. A few possible actions when printing cannot be accomplished are described.. LPV2-WS11GC User’s Manual (This Manual) These sections are for those who already has a large-scale LAN or changing the setting in ESSID, wireless channels, server names and port names. * The LPV2-WS11GC cannot be set up from Macintosh or UNIX OS. It must be set from the Windows OS with* a Wi-Fi certified wireless LAN card. (It is possible to print from Macintosh or UNIX.) LPV-WL11G User’s Manual (Introduction) Overview of the LPV2 This section describes the features and operating environment of the LPV2. Features LPV2 is the wireless print server that allows printing from PCs on wireless LANs. It supports four protocols: NetBEUI, AppleTalk, TCP/IP and NetWare. If the ESS-ID is set for the wireless LAN to be used just install the printer driver for printing. A wireless LAN PC is required for setting the LPV2. The wireless LAN PC or the "setting PC" must use the Windows OS with a Wi-Fi certified wireless LAN card. (It is not possible to set the LPV2 from a 2Mbps wireless LAN cards.) For printing through a wireless access point, the Wi-Fi certified access point such as MELCO’s AirStation should be used. Features of the LPV2 are: • Complies with IEEE802.11b and the baud rate of 11 Mbps over a wireless LAN. • Supports a printer port (D-sub 25-pin). • The maximum range is 115 m indoor or 550 m outdoor LOS. The range may change depending on the baud rate as below. 11 Mbps:160 m outdoor LOS 50 m indoor (1) LOS 25 m indoor (2) LOS Note: Indoor (1) is defined here as offices with less obstructions and indoor (2) is defined as offices with more obstructions. * The range is depending on the environment and it may become shorter in the following situations. 1. Inside the reinforced concrete buildings such as apartment house. 2. Near the large metal objects. • Supports a multi-channel (11ch) function that reduces network load. • Supports 128/40 bit WEP. Refer to the “WEP (Encryption) Encryption Recommendations” section (page 11)” for further infomation. * When using 128-bit WEP, the access point must also be set to 128-bit WEP. (128-bit WEP and 40-bit WEP cannot be used together.) • Supports DHCP, BOOTP and RARP. • Supports SNMP and MIB2. • Provided with LPV Manager 2. LPV-WL11G User’s Manual (Introduction) Operating Environment Protocols Supported TCP/IP, NetBEUI, AppleTalk (EtherTalk)* * Supports only PostScript printers (ASCII mode). Operating Systems for the LAN Windows XP/Me/98/95, Windows 2000/NT4.0, MacOS7.6 or later, UNIX * Note that the LPV2 cannot be set from Mac OS or UNIX. WEP (Encryption): Encryption Recommendations This product transmits data using radio waves, thereby causing the possibility of wireless packets to be accessed by external sources. Therefore, we recommend setting a WEP encryption key for transmission of wireless packets to provide security. This product enables 128-bit WEP and 40-bit WEP encryption. 128-bit WEP (13 ASCII characters or 26 Hex characters) provides greater security. For communications with wireless LAN products that only support 40-bit WEP (5 ASCII characters or 10 Hex characters), however, the WEP setting of this product must also be set to 40-bit WEP. * For details of WEP (encryption) setting methods for AirStation, refer to the manual provided with AirStation.
