Introduction
The D-Link DP-311P Print Server is a wireless print server with one parallel port. With its
high-speed IEEE 1283 parallel port, the DP-311P allows those on your network to access
and share a printer wirelessly, no matter where they reside on the network.
The DP-311P is equipped with one bi-directional parallel port with a centronics connector for
direct connection to most printers available on the market today. No additional printer cable
will be required. The DP-311P also supports all major network operating systems and
protocols.
The DP-311P is an 802.11b-compliant wireless Print Server that supports both Infrastructure
or Ad-Hoc wireless modes. With the DP-311P you have the ability and convenience of sharing
a printer beyond the wired network.
The DP-311P is also easily configurable using a Web Browser or Windows based setup
wizard. Using a web browser on a PC connected to the network, configuration is simple and
straightforward with the familiar D-Link interface. PS Admin, a Windows-based configuration
program can also be used to configure the DP-311P. (The PS Admin manual is available on the
CD included with your purchase).
The DP-311P Wireless Print Server is the ideal network printing solution for small offices,
home offices, schools and other businesses that require printer sharing.

Getting Started
Below is a sample network using the DP-311P. The DP-311P has a built- in Web-based
management feature that allows users to easily configure and manage multiple print
queues through TCP/IP.
For a list of printers that are compatible with the DP-311P, please see the Appendix in this
manual. The compatibility list is not comprehensive. Even if it is not included in the list,
your printer may be compatible with the DP-311P.
Using the Web Configuration
Before you begin configuring the DP-311P:
Set the switch to Config mode on the rear panel of the DP-311P.
Change your wireless adapter setting to Ad-Hoc or Peer-to-Peer mode. (Open
the Configuration utility for your network adapter and make sure that your
network adapter is set to Ad-Hoc mode in your configuration settings.)
(For D-Link network adapters, you can open the web-based configuration utility
and go to the Site Survey function and select the SSID named WLAN-PS. The
Channel is 1 and WEP is set to Disable. The network adapter will now be in AdHoc mode.)
Change the wireless adapter IP Address so that it is in the same IP Address range
as the DP-311P (192.168.0.x). For instructions on changing the IP Address,
please refer to the Networking Basics section in this manual. The subnet mask is
255.255.255.0.
Restart the computer.
Open your web browser and input the IP Address of your wireless print server.
The default IP Address is 192.168.0.10.
After you have completed the configuration:
After you have finished configuring the DP-311P, in order for the changes to
take effect, you must toggle the mode switch on the rear panel of the print
server back to “Normal” mode.
Re-power the DP-311P by pulling the power adapter plug out and re-inserting it.
On the following pages you will find a description of each of the screens that are available to
you for the web configuration of the DP-311P.
