MFP Configuration
This chapter provides an overview of the configuration process.
Overview
The MFP Print Server is designed to support many different platforms, and the configuration
required would depend upon the environment in which it is installed.
•
The MFP Print Server usually requires configuration, but if there's a DHCP server on your
network, then the device is just plug-and-play. A Windows-based setup Wizard is also
provided on the CD-ROM to simplify this task.
•
PCs wishing to use the printer attached to the MFP Print Server always require
configuration.
Configuration Methods
The following methods are available to perform the required MFP Print Server configuration:
•

Chapter 4
Web-Based Management
This chapter explains how to use your Web Browser to configure the MFP Print
Server.
Overview
The MFP Print Server incorporates the HTTP server. This allows you to connect to the MFP
Print Server and configure it using your Web Browser. Most browsers should work, provided
they support tables and forms.
Preparation
Because it supports dynamic IP Address allocation using DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP, the Print
Server ships with an IP Address of 0.0.0.0.
This is NOT a valid IP Address.
Therefore, you must do ONE of the following:
•
Check your DHCP server (if you have one), and determine the IP Address allocated to the
MFP Print Server.
•
Use the Diagnostic Button (if fitted) to print a report which includes the current IP
address. (Press the Diagnostic Button, and hold it for 2 seconds.)
•
Use the Setup Wizard or another MFP Print Server utility to allocate a valid IP Address to
the Print Server.
•
Add an entry to the arp table to associate the hardware address of the Print Server with
the desired IP address, as follows:
arp -s IP_Address 00:c0:02:xx:xx:xx
(Unix)
arp -s IP_Address 00-c0-02-xx-xx-xx
(Windows)
Where:
IP_Address is the IP Address you wish to assign to the MFP Print Server.
00:c0:02:xx:xx:xx is the hardware address of the MFP Print Server.
Example (Unix):
arp -s
192.168.0.21
00:c0:02:12:34:56
Example (Windows):
arp -s
192.168.0.21
00−c0−02−12−34−56
Note: The hardware address of the Print Server is shown on a sticker on the base of the device.
Page 11
Connecting to the Print Server
1. Start your Web Browser.
2. In the Address box, enter HTTP:// followed by the IP Address of the MFP Print Server.
e.g.
http://192.168.0.100
3. You will then be prompted for the password. If no password has been set, just press ENTER.
4. Use the menu bar to move from one screen to another. Remember to save each screen
before changing to a different screen.
Configuration Screens
The following configuration screens are available.

Wireless Configuration
There are 2 options on the menu for Wireless configuration - Basic and Security.
Wireless - Basic
The settings on this screen must match the other Wireless stations in order for communication
to occur.
Figure 10: Wireless Screen
Configuration
Region or
Domain
Select your region from the drop-down list.
Station name
This is the same as the Device (Host) Name on the WAN
screen. On your PC, some Wireless status screens may display
this name as the Access Point in use.
Network Type
Select the correct value for your Wireless LAN.
SSID
(ESSID)
This field displays the region of operation for which the
wireless interface is intended. It may not be legal to operate the
router in a region other than the region shown here. If your
country or region is not listed, please check with your local
government agency for more information on which channels
you are allowed to use, and select a region, which allows those
channels. (The channel list changes according to the selected
region.)
•
Ad-hoc mode is used when there is no Wireless Access
Point, and each Wireless station communicates directly
with other Wireless stations.
•
Infrastructure mode is used when each Wireless station
connects to the Wireless Access point. This also provides
access to the wired LAN.
To communicate, all Wireless stations MUST use the same
SSID/ESSID.
The default value is blank (null).
Note! The SSID is case sensitive.
Page 14
Channel No.
In Infrastructure mode, this setting has not effect – the Access
Point determines the Channel used.
For Ad-hoc mode, select the value you wish to use on your
Wireless LAN. If you experience lost connections and/or slow
data transfers you may need to experiment with different
channels to see which is the best.
Link Info
Button
Click this button to open a sub screen displaying link
information.
Wireless Security Screen
There are 3 options for Wireless security:
•
Disabled - no data encryption is used.
•
WEP - data is encrypted using the WEP standard.
•
WPA-PSK - data is encrypted using the WPA-PSK standard. This is a later standard than
WEP, and provides much better security than WEP. Use this if possible.
Wireless Security - WEP
If "WEP" is selected, the screen will look like the following example.
Figure 11: WEP Screen
Security
System
WEP
Authentication
Select the appropriate value, as used on your Wireless LAN "Open System" or "Shared Key."
The 802.11b standard. Data is encrypted before transmission, but
the encryption system is not very strong.
Page 15
Key Size
Select the WEP Encryption level:
•
64-bit (sometimes called 40-bit) encryption
•
128-bit encryption (sometimes called 104 bit encryption)
This selection also allows you to choose the input type for the
keys - Hex or ASCII.
Keys
Passphrase
•
Use the radio buttons to select the default key.
•
Enter the key value(s) you wish to use. Other stations must
have the same key values.
•
Keys can be entered in Hex or ASCII, according to your Key
Size selection. Hex characters are the digits (0 ~ 9) and the
letters A ~ F.
Enter some printable characters in the Passphrase field and click
the "Generate Keys" button to automatically configure the WEP
Key(s). For 64 bit keys, four keys fields will be generated. For
128 bit keys, only the selected WEP key will be generated.
Wireless Security - WPA-PSK
If "WPA-PSK" is selected, the screen will look like the following example.
Figure 12: WPA-PSK Screen
Security
System
WPA-PSK
Passphrase
Enter the Keyword key value. Data is encrypted using a key
derived from the PSK. Other Wireless Stations must use the
same PSK. The PSK must be from 8 to 63 characters in length.
Encryption
Other Wireless Stations must use the TKIP method.
Like WEP, data is encrypted before transmission. WPA is more
secure than WEP, and should be used if possible. WPA-PSK is
the version of WPA, which does NOT require a Radius Server
on your LAN.
Page 16
Other Screens
Server Status

Regulatory Approvals
FCC Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and
used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver
is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
To assure continued compliance, any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the
party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment.
(Example - use only shielded interface cables when connecting to computer or peripheral
devices).
FCC Radiation Exposure Statement
This equipment complies with FCC RF radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled
environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with a minimum distance of 20
centimeters between the radiator and your body.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter.
The antennas used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at
least 20 cm from all persons and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any
other antenna or transmitter.
Channel
The Wireless Channel sets the radio frequency used for communication.
•Access Points use a fixed Channel. You can select the Channel used. This allows you to
choose a Channel which provides the least interference and best performance. In the USA
and Canada, 11 channel are available. If using multiple Access Points, it is better if adjacent
Access Points use different Channels to reduce interference.
• In "Infrastructure" mode, Wireless Stations normally scan all Channels, looking for an
Access Point. If more than one Access Point can be used, the one with the strongest
signal is used. (This can only happen within an ESS.)
• If using "Ad-hoc" mode (no Access Point), all Wireless stations should be set to use the
same Channel. However, most Wireless stations will still scan all Channels to see if there
is an existing "Ad-hoc" group they can join.
Note:This equipment marketed in USA is restricted by firmware to only operate on 2.4G channel 1-11
