Do not connect the MFP Print Server while power is On. • Find the Default Server Name for your MFP Print Server. The Default Server Name is shown on a sticker on the base of the device. It consists of 8 letters and/or digits. Record this name; it may be needed during configuration. 2. Connect the Printer Use the cable supplied with your printer to connect the printer to the USB port on the MFP Print Server unit. 3. Connect the Network Cable Connect the network cable to the 10/100BaseT LAN connector on the MFP Print Server. • To use the LAN interface, the LAN cable needs to be inserted BEFORE powering ON. • In the default Wireless "Infrastructure" mode, connecting a LAN cable will disable the Wireless interface. To use both the LAN and Wireless interfaces, the Wireless mode must be changed to "Ad-hoc". • The Wired (LAN) interface should be used for initial configuration. 4. Power Up Plug in the power adapter cable and power up. Start-up will take only a few seconds. Use only the Power Supply unit provided with the MFP Print Server. Using a different Power Supply may cause damage. 5. Check the LEDs • • The Error LED should flash, then turn Off. When the Error LED goes off and the Status LED remains lit or flashes, the Print Server is ready. The Error LED will remain flashing if the MFP Print Server can't connect to the USB printer. Page 5 Chapter 3 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: • Windows-based Wizard - see below for details. • Web-based setup - see Chapter 4 for details. Using the Windows Wizard The Windows-based Wizard is supplied on the CD-ROM, and runs on Windows XP and Windows Vista. Using this Wizard is the recommended method to configure the MFP Print Server. It can be used configure the Print Server for your Network environment, even if the MFP Print Server does not have a valid IP address. Procedure 1. Insert the supplied CD-ROM into your drive. If the setup program does not start automatically, run SETUP.exe in the root folder. 2. On the first screen, shown below, click Setup Wizard. Page 6 Figure 2: MFP Screen 3. Click OK or Skip if all the setup procedures listed on the first screen are checked. 4. Select your MFP Print Server, then click Next to continue. Figure 3: Adapter Screen 5. Click Next to configure the IP Address screen. • Select Obtain IP Address automatically if your LAN has a DHCP Server, otherwise select Use following IP address. • For Use following IP address, enter an unused address from the range used on your LAN. Use the same Subnet Mask and Default Gateway as PCs on your LAN. 6. Click Next to see the following screen Page 7 Figure 4: Status Screen 7. Click Next and Exit to continue to the final screen 8. Click Finish to save the data to the MFP Print Server. If the desired MFP is not listed: • Check that both the MFP Print Server and the printer are properly connected, and powered on. • Check that the proper Printer Driver has been installed. Windows Setup 1. Insert the supplied CD-ROM into your drive. If the setup program does not start, run SETUP.exe in the root folder. 2. Click PC Install to install the utility and bus driver. Figure 5: Main Screen 3. Follow the prompts to complete the installation. 4. The MFP Print Server Utility will then run. Page 8 MFP Print Server Utility Setup 1.

Otherwise the default status icon should be available. if the MFP is Figure 6: MFP Icon If your MFP Print Server is not listed: • Check that both the MFP Print Server and the printer are properly connected, and powered on. • Check that the proper Printer Driver has been installed. 2. Once the MFP has been connected successfully, the button will show "Disconnect" instead of "Connect". Page 9 Figure 7: Utility Screen 3. Configuration is now complete. Note: If MFP has been idled for 5 minutes after connected, you will see the following message Figure 8: Idle Message The MFP will be disconnected automatically if you don't respond to the message within 1minute. Page 10 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. TCP/IP Figure 9: TCP/IP Screen IP Address DHCP Client Select this if your LAN has a DHCP Server. The MFP Print Server will then automatically obtain an IP address from the DHCP Server. Fixed IP Address Select this to assign a fixed IP address to the MFP Print Server. If selected, you must enter the Device IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway. Device IP Address IP Address assigned to the MFP Print Server. Enter an unused IP address from the address range used on your LAN. Subnet Mask Use the same values as PCs on your LAN (or on the same LAN segment, if you have a Router). Gateway Address Use the same values as PCs on your LAN (or on the same LAN segment, if you have a Router). Page 12 Connection Delay before reconnection attempt Sets how long the MFP Print Server should wait before retrying a TCP/IP connection which is lost. Allowable values are from 0 to 255 seconds, with 2 as the default. Number of reconnection attempts Set how many attempts at reconnection will be made. After that, the TCP/IP session will be terminated. Allowable values are from 0 to 255, with 254 as the default. Page 13 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 This screen shows server system data and the current settings for all of the other screens. It is read-only; no data can be input on this screen. Printer Status This screen displays the current status of each port. For each port, the following data is listed: • Connected Printer- the model name of the printer connected to the port, if the printer name is known. (If the printer is not bi-directional, this information is unavailable.) • Status - the current status of the printer (On-line, Off-line, Out of paper) • Printing Information - this will show either Idle or Printing.

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
