For help, see Chapter 2, “Configuring the EasyLAN Wireless,” and Chapter 3, “Managing the EasyLAN Wireless.” 1-10 2 Configuring the EasyLAN Wireless blank Configuring and Managing the EasyLAN Wireless This chapter explains how to configure the EasyLAN Wireless for radio and network communications. Before You Begin This chapter explains how to configure the EasyLAN Wireless using the Web browser interface, EasyLAN Wireless Admin utility, and network specific utilities, such as Novell NWAdmin utility. For information on using console commands with HyperTerminal to configure the EasyLAN Wireless, see Appendix A, “Console Commands.” Before you configure the EasyLAN Wireless, you need to: • Make sure that you have properly configured your PC for communication on a wireless network. If you are connecting to the printer though an access point, make sure your PC is in infrastructure mode and that it is associated with the access point. If you are printing directly to the printer without an access point, you should be in ad-hoc mode. See the documentation for your PC’s wireless adapter for instructions. Note: If your PC’s wireless adapter includes an option for 802.11 ad-hoc, you must select it if you want to use the printer in ad-hoc mode. If it does not include this option, select Ad-hoc Computer-to-Computer or whatever mode your adapter uses to communicate on a wireless network without an access point. • If you are using WEP encryption on your wireless network, temporarily disable WEP on your PC in order to configure the EasyLAN Wireless using the EasyLAN Wireless Admin utility. If you are using an access point with WEP enabled and it does not allow non-WEP clients to communicate with other non-WEP clients, then you also need to temporarily change the wireless mode of your PC to ad-hoc. Note: If no PCs on your network can be set to ad-hoc mode, you need to temporarily disable WEP on your access point. When you are done configuring the EasyLAN Wireless, you can re-enable WEP on your access point and change the wireless mode back if necessary. • If you are using TCP/IP, note your PC’s IP address. The EasyLAN Wireless needs to be on the same IP segment as the other nodes on your network in order to communicate. • If you are using infrastructure mode, make sure you have a good signal between your computer and the access point. Most wireless adapters have a utility that shows the wireless signal strength. See your PC’s wireless adapter’s documentation for details. • If you are using a home gateway or router, configure the EasyLAN Wireless from a PC on the same network segment that you want the EasyLAN Wireless to be on. 2-3 EasyLAN Wireless User’s Manual Configuring the TCP/IP Parameters You can use the Web browser interface or the EasyLAN Wireless Admin utility to configure the following TCP/IP parameters: • Enable or disable TCP/IP • Enable port services • IP address • Subnet mask • Gateway or router IP address • Boot method Note: If you are using DHCP on your network, the EasyLAN Wireless may have automatically acquired valid IP settings, and no further configuration is necessary. Using DHCP may work well if your DHCP server allows the EasyLAN Wireless to keep its IP address permanently, but in most cases, you want to use a static IP address outside the range reserved for DHCP (see your DHCP server manual for details). You want a static IP address for when you configure your printer port and to use the Web browser interface.

As a result, any host computer that supports the Berkeley remote-LPR command can spool jobs to the EasyLAN Wireless without the need for any special software on the host computer. Note: Before you configure a UNIX print queue, the EasyLAN Wireless must have a valid IP address. Configuring for a Berkeley UNIX Host Berkeley UNIX host computers include Linux, Digital Equipment Corporation Digital UNIX, OSF/1, and ULTRIX; Compaq Tru64 UNIX; SunOS (not Solaris), SCO UNIX; and many others. Sun Solaris, HP/UX, and IBM AIX users should skip to the appropriate sections later in this chapter. Note: Do not use the Linux X-Windows graphical user interface printer configuration utility because it does not work with the EasyLAN Wireless. Instead, Linux users should follow the configuration steps listed in this section. Note: SCO UNIX users should use the ripconf command to create a printer and automatically configure the /etc/printcap file (you still need to edit the /etc/hosts file). Enter the EasyLAN Wireless service name (XCD_xxxxxx_P1 where xxxxxx is the last six digits of the MAC address) as the name of the printer (refer to the EasyLAN Wireless test label for the exact name of this service), and enter the name of the EasyLAN Wireless that you assigned that you assigned in the /etc/hosts file as the remote host name. Note the because this name must be unique for each printer, we recommend using the XCD_xxxxxx_P1 service instead of the normal BINARY_P1 service. To configure for a Berkeley UNIX host 1. Edit the /etc/hosts file (or equivalent local host table). For example: 192.189.207.33 xcdprinter 2. Edit the printcap file. For example: LabelPrinter:\ :lp=:\ : rm=XCD:\ :rp=BINARY_P1:\ :sd=/usr/spool/LabelPrinter: 2-29 EasyLAN Wireless User’s Manual where: LabelPrinter is the queue name. XCD matches the name in the hosts file. BINARY_P1 is the EasyLAN Wireless service name. Use TEXT_P1 instead of BINARY_P1 for text files. sd is the spool directory. 3. Create the spool directory. The lpd spool directory is usually located in the /usr/spool directory. To create a new spool directory, use the mkdir command. For example: mkdir /usr/spool/lpd/LabelPrinter 4. Print using the standard lpr command: lpr –PLabelPrinter filename 5. For AT&T based UNIX systems, such as SCO, use the standard lp command: lp –dLabelPrinter filename Configuring for Sun Solaris To use an EasyLAN Wireless with Sun Solaris, first use the Host Manager in the Admintool utility to add the EasyLAN Wireless IP address and name to the /etc/hosts file. To use the Host Manager to add the EasyLAN Wireless IP address 1. Open Host Manager in the Admintool utility. For help, see the documentation for your Sun Solaris system. 2. Click None – Use /etc files on host. 3. Click Apply. 4. Click Edit, and then click Add Host. 5. Enter the EasyLAN Wireless name as the Host Name (this name is anything you want, but should not have an underscore (_) character in it). 6. Enter the IP address and MAC address of the EasyLAN Wireless (the MAC address has the format aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff). 7. Click Add. 8. Close the Host Manager windows. Now you are ready to use the Printer Manager in the Admintool utility. 2-30 Configuring and Managing the EasyLAN Wireless To use the Printer Manager 1. Open the Printer Manager under Open Windows in the Admintool utility. For help, see the documentation for your Sun Solaris system. 2. Select Edit. 3. Select Add. 4. Select Add Access to Remote Printer. 5. At the PrinterName prompt, type any desired name for the print queue. 6. At the Printer Server prompt, type name\!servicename where: name matches the EasyLAN Wireless name as entered in the hosts table. servicename is the print service name. For binary graphics files, use the service BINARY_P1; for text files, use the service TEXT_P1. 7. Make sure that the Print Server OS is set to BSD (this is the default setting). 8. Select Add. 9. To print, use the standard lp command: lp –dLabelPrinter filename Note: We recommend using the /etc/hosts file for the printer name rather than NIS or other name services. Due to a bug in the Sun lpd implementation on Solaris 2.4 and earlier releases, you may encounter problems printing very long print jobs. The workaround is to configure the EasyLAN Wireless as an HP JetDirect card using the HP JetAdmin for UNIX software. Solaris print queues can also be configured from the UNIX shell using the lpadmin command. Configuring for HP/UX 1. For HP/UX 10.x, open the sam program to configure the EasyLAN Wireless. 2. When you get a list of options, select Printers and Plotters. 3. Select LP Spooler. 4. Select Printers and Plotters. 5. Select Actions, and then select Add Remote Printer/Plotter. 6.

Sent them email the morning of 3/22/02. 4-3 EasyLAN Wireless User’s Manual 4-4 5 Troubleshooting the EasyLAN Wireless blank Troubleshooting the EasyLAN Wireless This chapter describes how to troubleshoot the EasyLAN Wireless. Troubleshooting Printing Problems First, check the printer to make sure it is online and has media and ribbon. If the printer is working fine, test the connection between the printer and the EasyLAN Wireless by pushing the test switch on the back of the printer for less than 5 seconds. Note: Remember, if a test label does not print, the printer may still be able to print through the EasyLAN Wireless. Set up the printer as you normally would and try printing from an application. If the test label does not print, try resetting the EasyLAN Wireless to factory defaults by holding the test switch for more than 5 seconds. Troubleshooting Wireless Configuration Problems Make sure your computer’s wireless adapter or access point is configured properly and note the settings paying special attention to the wireless mode, SSID or network name, WEP or security, and IP address settings so you can configure your EasyLAN Wireless to the same wireless settings. Make sure you have a good wireless signal from your PC and from the EasyLAN Wireless. Make sure that the EasyLAN Wireless is within range (90 meters or 300 feet), and that it is away from metal objects and other devices with radio signals (such as Bluetooth radios, cordless phones, and microwave ovens). Make sure your computer is set to infrastructure mode if you are connecting through an access point or ad-hoc (802.11) if you are connecting to the EasyLAN Wireless without an access point. See the documentation for your wireless adapter for details. If you are using WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) encryption or security on your wireless network, you need to temporarily disable WEP on your PC in order to configure the EasyLAN Wireless. If you are using an access point with WEP enabled and it does not allow non-WEP clients to communicate with other non-WEP clients, then you need to temporarily change the wireless mode of your computer to ad-hoc (802.11) mode. Note: If no computers on your network can be set to ad-hoc mode, you need to temporarily disable WEP on your access point. When you are done configuring the EasyLAN Wireless, you can re-enable WEP on your computer and change the wireless mode back if necessary. 5-3 EasyLAN Wireless User’s Manual If you want to use WEP encryption or password protect your wireless network, and your wireless adapter or access point normally uses a password or passphrase instead of WEP, it should allow you to enter 0x followed by a 10 digit (for 40-bit or 64-bit WEP) or 26 digit (for 128-bit WEP) key in hexadecimal format (0 to 9 or A to F). If you are experiencing slow performance or are having intermittent problems connecting, try changing the RF channel of your wireless network. For help configuring the RF channel using the Web browser interface or the EasyLAN Wireless Admin utility, see Chapter 2, “Configuring the EasyLAN Wireless.” For help changing the RF channel on your wireless adapter or access point, see the documentation for those products. You should change it to at least three channels lower or higher than any other wireless networks within range. Troubleshooting Network Configuration If you are using TCP/IP, make sure that your computer and the EasyLAN Wireless are on the same IP segment or can reach each other with a PING command from the host. The IP address you assign to the EasyLAN Wireless must be on the same logical network as your host computers (for example, if your computer has an IP address of 192.189.207.3, the EasyLAN Wireless should have an IP address of 192.189.207.x where x is an integer between 1 and 254), or you must properly configure your router address to work with the EasyLAN Wireless. If your EasyLAN Wireless is set to Auto or DHCP for obtaining an IP address, it is possible the EasyLAN Wireless IP address can change. Either configure your DHCP server to give the EasyLAN Wireless a permanent lease or configure the EasyLAN Wireless to be on a Static address outside the scope of DHCP addresses. 5-4 A Console Commands blank Console Commands This appendix explains how to send the console commands and list the commands.
