Server starts to work normally.
3.2 Wireless connection
This section only applies to TEW-MP2U.
3.2.1 Preliminary
Before you can access wireless network, wireless parameters should be set
correctly. You have to setup the first wireless parameter set through LAN
(wired) connection.
Wireless access can be set as 1. Infrastructure (station) mode, which need an
access point to route network messages, or 2. Ad-hoc mode, which connect
nearby wireless PC/devices with the same SSID (Service Set ID).
Wireless access can be secured by WEP64, WEP128, or WPA-PSK/TKIP.
In infrastructure mode, if network administrator wants to change any security
related parameters, TEW-MP2U should be changed first, and then access
point. If parameters mismatch causes wireless access is not allowed, you
have to modify those parameters through LAN connection.
In infrastructure mode, the maximal transfer rate is 54 Mbps depending on
access point’s capability. In ad-hoc mode, only 802.11b (the maximal
transfer rate is 11 Mbps) is allowed by specification.
3.2.2 Set Wireless Configuration Using MFP Server Control Center
1. Install MFP Server Control Center. MFP Server Control Center is available in the
included Product’s CD-ROM.

a MFP Server from the server list.
4. Double click the highlighted server (or click the “Configure MFP Server” button)
and type the server’s administrator (default: admin) and password (default:
admin).
5. After you login successfully, from the Server menu, select wireless. The set
Wireless dialog appears.
6. In order to join an existing wireless network, you have to set the correct
network type (infrastructure or ad-hoc), SSID, and the correct security method
with the correct key information.
7. If the wireless network is secured by WEP 64 or WEP128, authentication method,
key index, and WEP key must be set correctly.
11
8. If the wireless network is secured by WPA-PSK/TKIP, the shared key must be set
correctly.
12
9. Click Apply to save your settings. And the server will reboot.
10. You have now finished the procedure of setting the wireless parameters.
# In infrastructure mode, TEW-MP2U searches all channels to join the matched wireless
service set. In ad-hoc mode, TEW-MP2U searches all channels to join the matched wireless
ad-hoc service set too, however, if none are found, TEW-MP2U creates that service set in the
assigned channel.
# In ad-hoc mode, WPA-PSK/TKIP is not allowed.
3.2.3 Set Wireless Configuration Using Server’s Web Pages
1. You can see the IP address of MFP Server in the server list. Open IE Browser and
type server’s IP address or click the Home Icon of MFP Server Control Center.
13

must be set correctly.
15
7. If the wireless network is secured by WPA-PSK/TKIP, the shared key must be set
correctly.
16
8. Click Submit to save your settings. And the server will reboot.
9. You have now finished the procedure of setting the wireless parameters.
# In infrastructure mode, TEW-MP2U searches all channels to join the matched wireless
service set. In ad-hoc mode, TEW-MP2U searches all channels to join the matched
wireless ad-hoc service set too, however, if none are found, TEW-MP2U creates that
service set in the assigned channel.
# In ad-hoc mode, WPA-PSK/TKIP is not allowed.
After properly configuring the wireless parameters, you can remove the network
cable and reboot the TEW-MP2U. TEW-MP2U will then connect to your wireless network.
TEW-MP2U will detect if a network cable is plugged-in or not. If a network cable is
plugged-in, TEW-MP2U will always connect to the network through the network cable.
Otherwise it will always connect to the network through wireless module. Once
TEW-MP2U connects to the network, either by network cable or by wireless module,
all operations of print / scan / file server are exactly the same.
3.3 Assigning an IP Address to the Server
3.3.1 Preliminary
If you have a DHCP server on your network, your Server will receive an IP
address automatically. The IP address will then appear on the Control Center
or on the page of configuration report that you printed earlier. If your DHCP
server does not give an IP address to the Server, the Server will use the
Default IP address: 192.168.1.100.
If you are not working in a DHCP network, you need to manually set the
Server’s IP address.
3.3.2 Ethernet Address
You do not need to know the Ethernet address of your Server for assigning an IP
address to it. The Control Center can automatically search Servers and list their
Ethernet addresses. Besides, you can find Ethernet address that is located on the
backside label of the Server.
3.3.3 IP Address
Unless you are assigning an IP address using DHCP, you must obtain an unused IP
address from your network administrator.
3.3.4 Methods for Setting the IP Address
You can set the IP address of your Server using one of the following methods,
depending on your network operating environment:
Automatic IP Address Assignment
Manual IP Address Assignment
17
3.3.5 Server Names and Server Name Rules
The default server name of the Server is “TE100-MP1U” or “TE100-MP2U” or
“TEW-MP2U”. If you put two or more Servers in your local area network, to avoid using
the same server names you have to change the server names by using the Control
Center or the Server’s web pages. If your server name is longer than 15 characters,
the Server uses only the first 15 characters.
3.3.6 Setting the IP Address Using DHCP
Follow the instructions below to get an IP address using DHCP:
1. Edit or create a scope in the DHCP manager of the DHCP daemon. The entries
included in this scope should contain the following parameters:
y range of IP addresses
y subnet mask
y default router IP address
y DNS server IP address
y lease duration
2. Activate the scope. The Server automatically gets the DHCP parameters. If you
are using DNS, you may include at least one DNS server IP address in the DHCP
scope or manually set the DNS server IP address using Server’s web pages or
the Control Center.
3.3.7 Setting the IP Address Using the Control Center
11. Install the Control Center. The Control Center is available on the Product CD.
12. Start the Control Center and Auto-searching Server window will appear.
13. If the tool finds multiple Servers in your local area network, then you have to
select one Server from the Server List.
18
14. Double click the highlight list and enter the Server’s administrator (default:
admin) and password (default: admin).
15. After you have logged in successfully, select TCP/IP from the Server’s menu.
The Set IP Address dialog appears.
19
16. Click the button corresponding to your choice of IP setting method (static or
dynamic using DHCP). When assigning a static IP address you also have to
define Subnet Mask and Default Gateway. If you choose Automatically get
IP by DHCP, you can use desired DNS by clicking the Manual DNS button
and manually assigning a DNS.
17. Click Apply to save your settings. And the Server will reboot.
18. You have now finished the procedure of setting the IP address.
3.3.8 Setting the IP Address Using the Server’s Web Pages
1. If you don’t know the current IP of you Server, you have to do the Step1~Step4
of Set the IP Address Using the Control Center.
2. You can see the IP address of you Server in the Server List. Open IE Browser
and enter the Server’s IP address or click the Home Icon of the Control Center.
3. Go to the web page and click CONFIG icon.
20
4. Enter administrator (default: admin) and password (default: admin).
5. Click TCP/IP icon.
6. Click the button corresponding to your choice of IP setting methods (static or
21
dynamic using DHCP). When assigning a static IP address you also have to
define Subnet Mask and Default Gateway.

example, the printer model name is “LaserJet 3030 PCL 6” and then the
default printer name will be set as “LaserJet 303”.
2. If system cannot get the printer model (For example, you use some
parallel printers and use Parallel-to-USB cables to connect the printers),
the default printer names are set as: USB1_Printer and USB2_Printer
with respect to USB1 port and USB2 port.
3.4.2 Storage Names
The local drives of the two storages in USB1 port and USB2 port are named as
USBx_DyPz, where USBx represents the USBx port, Dy represents the y-th Disk (in
particular to card reader plugging in multiple cards) and Pz represents the z-th
partition.

Chapter5 Print Server in Unix/Linux
This chapter describes how to add network printers to Unix/Linux PC.
5.1 Configuring Host File
If using IP administration system like DNS, manually registering the Server Name and
IP address may be not required. Otherwise, you have to edit hosts file and contact
your network administrator.
1. Log in to Linux machine by “root”.
# login root
2. Register the Server’s Server Name and IP address into /etc/hosts file.
To edit host file, use an editor, e.g. “vi”.
Example: The IP address is “192.168.1.100”, Server Name is “MP2U”
192.168.1.1 dns # DNS Server
192.168.1.2 mail # Mail Server
192.168.1.100 MP2U # Server
3. Switch on the Server. Verify the network connection by using the ping
command.
# ping MP2U
If there is no response or error occurs, there may be problems with IP address
configuration, host file editing or network status. Please contact your network
administrator.
5.2 Printing by LPD/LPR
This section explains how to print using LPD protocol of TCP/IP.
For further information on “lpr” and “lp” commands, refer to your workstation manual.
LPD Protocol: LPD (Line Printer Daemon) is a protocol that enables you to execute
printing to a printer on the network.
Remote-Printer Queue: The Server has two remote printer queues: USB1_LQ and
USB2_LQ with respect to USB port 1 and UB port2.
To print files using a printer driver, use “lp” or “lpr”.
5.3 Using the Server on BSD UNIX/Linux

Printer1:\ ---(A)
:lp=:rm=MP2U:rp=USB1_LQ:\ ---(B)
39
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/Printer1:\ ---(C)
:lf=/var/spool/lpd/Printer1/Printer1_errs: ---(D)
where
(A) Describes the printer name.
(B) lp: Device file name to connect printer. No name designation required on the
network.
rm: Server Name for the remote printer. Enter the Server Name registered to
/etc/hosts file.
rp: Remote printer name. Please input the remote printer queue name.
(C) sd: Spool directory name. It must be the absolute path.
(D) lf: Error log file name. It must be the absolute path.
3. Create the spool directory and error log file registered to /etc/printcap file.
Example: To create the spool directory “Printer1” and error log file
“Printer1_errs”.
# mkdir /var/spool/lpd/Printer1 Create the spool directory
# touch /var/spool/lpd/Printer1/Printer1_errs Create the error log file
# chown -R daemon /var/spool/lpd/Printer1 Change the owner to daemon
# chgrp -R daemon /var/spool/lpd/Printer1 Change the group to daemon
4. Start Printing.
A. Use the "lp" command.
- # lp -d Printer1 <Print file name>
- # lp -d Printer2 <Print file name>
B. Use the “lpr” command.
- # lpr -P Printer1 <print file name>

Chapter7 The NetUSB Technology
7.1 Introduction
The goal of TE100-MP1U/TE100-MP2U/TEW-MP2U USB MFP Server is to provide the
print/scan/file server in a single product. For printers and scanners, there is no
industrial standard. In order to support many different models of printers and
scanners from various vendors, one way is putting so many printer/scanner drivers
into a single product. Obviously this is very hard and not practical. We have developed
a new technology, called “NetUSB”, to solve this problem. With the NetUSB technology,
it is not necessary to implement printer/scanner drivers in TE100-MP1U /
TE100-MP2U/TEW-MP2U. Actually, TE100-MP1U/TE100-MP2U/TEW-MP2U relies on
printer/scanner drivers that are installed on PCs. By the way, in the field of traditional
network print server, the common protocols used are, for example, SMB/CIFS, LPR,
raw TCP, and IPP. However, in order to reduce cost, many printer vendors produce
so-called GDI or host-based printers. For technical reasons, these kinds of printers
can not work with the traditional network printer protocols. The NetUSB technology
can also deal with the problem. The basic concept and the usage of NetUSB will be
introduced in this chapter.
In summary, TE100-MP1U/TE100-MP2U/TEW-MP2U has a totally different technology,
“NetUSB”, to deal with printers and scanners (MFPs).
A. For printers, some special kinds of printers, such as GDI printers or host-based
printers, can not work well with traditional print server technology as described in
the previous chapters. Users should use the NetUSB technology to deal with these
kinds of printers.
B. For MFPs or scanners, the NetUSB technology is able to support almost all models
from all MFP/scanner vendors..
C. For USB mass storage, such as USB hard drives and flash drives and card readers
on some kinds of MFPs, users can also use the NetUSB technology to access them
in single-user mode. By this way, NTFS file system is supported for read/write. To
use the NetUSB technology to access storage, please set the storage access mode
to NetUSB mode. Please refer to chapter 8 for how to set the storage access
mode.
Note: The default storage access mode is server mode.
7.2 Connect & Disconnect
“NetUSB” allows you to use USB printers or USB MFPs as if they were connected
directly to your PC although they are actually connected to the TE100-MP1U
/TE100-MP2U/TEW-MP2U USB MFP Server. The “connect” operation is a software
operation that simulates an actual USB device plug-in. That is to say, when you do a
“connect” operation in the Control Center, PC can then detect a USB device’s plug-in,
although actually you do not plug in any USB device. Similarly, the “disconnect”
56
operation is a software operation that simulates the disconnection of the USB device.
Once the connect operation is successful, the operations to use that USB device are
just the same as if the USB device is directly connected to the PC.
If a USB device is “connected” by a PC, we say that PC has the ownership of the USB
device. Only one PC can get the ownership of a USB device at the same time.
For printers, users can mix print jobs with traditional printing protocols, such as LPR or
SMB or IPP, and with the NetUSB printing, as long as the printer is in “disconnect”
state (that is, no PC get the ownership of that printer.) when a print job with traditional
protocols occurs. For USB storage, if the storage access mode is in NetUSB mode,
users can only use NetUSB technology to access storage. On the other hand, if the
storage access mode is in server mode, users can only use FTP or SMB to access
storage.
7.3 How to Use
7.3.1 Remote Installation
Here we will describe how to use the NetUSB technology to do “remote installation” for
a USB device. Before using the NetUSB technology, you must first make sure that your
PC can access USB MFP Server via TCP/IP. The simplest way to do this is using “Control
Center” to search for the USB MFP Server on the network and change its IP address to
be the same subnet as your PC. If the MFP Server and your PC are not in the same
TCP/IP subnet, Control Center will show the MFP Server in green, as the following
figure. You must change the IP address (or using DHCP) of the MFP Server so that the
MFP Server and your PC are in the same subnet. Control Center will show these MFP
Servers in blue, meaning you can safely access these MFP Servers by the NetUSB
technology.
The steps to do remote installation for USB devices, like MFPs:
A. Turn on the TE100-MP1U/TE100-MP2U/TEW-MP2U and the USB device.
B. Connect the USB device to TE100-MP1U/TE100-MP2U/TEW-MP2U. The LED of the
USB port will light-on.
C. Run the Control Center. In the “USB MFP Server List” window, you can see the
server names and IP addresses all of the TE100-MP1U/TE100-MP2U/TEW-MP2U
Servers (in blue) on the network, as the following figure.
57
D. Click the server. Then all USB devices attached on the server will be shown.
E. Please follow the user manual of the USB device to do the driver installation. For
example, you may put the driver CD of the USB device in the CDROM to install the
driver.
F. When you are asked to plug in the USB device into PC’s USB port, either before
running the driver setup program or during the execution of the driver setup
program (This depends on the USB device. Please check the user manual from
the vendor.), click the desired USB device in the Control Center and then click the
“Connect” button to do the connect operation and get the ownership of the USB
device, as the following figure. The computer name of the device owner will be
shown at the end of the device.
58
G. PC will automatically detect the plug-in of the USB device. On the right side of
Windows Task Bar, you can see the information of the new device. Continue to
follow the user manual of the USB device to do the rest jobs of installation, until
the driver installation finished.
After the installation, you can see the newly created devices on the PC. If the USB
device is a MFP, you can see a new printer and a new scanner from the “Control Panel”.
7.3.2 NetUSB Printing
After the driver is installed as described in the previous section, you can see a newly
created printer in the Control Panel’s “Printers and Faxes”. Follow the steps below to
do a NetUSB printing.
A. In the Control Center, click the MFP Server that has the desired printer (or MFP)
attached.
B. Click the desired printer (or MFP).
C. Click the “Auto Connect Printer” button and choose “Set Auto-Connect Printer”.
The following figure will appear.
59
D. Choose the desired printer. The desired printer must be the Windows printer (this
is a logical printer) that matches the printer attached on the MFP Server (this is a
physical printer). Then click the “Apply” button.
E. Then, the printer will be marked as an “Auto-Connected Printer” in red. If you
choose “Auto-Connected Printer List” in the “Tools” menu, you can see a newly
created item that describes the association between the Windows printer and the
physical printer on the server.
60
F. Then try to issue a print job to the desired printer. You will see the Control Center
will automatically do a connect operation. Then, the print job will be issued to that
printer. This is so-called “Auto Connect Print” operation.
G. Of course you can issue print jobs using manual “connect” and “disconnect” rather
than “Auto Connect Print”. To do this, click on the printer, then click the “Connect”
button. The name of the computer that has the ownership of the printer will be
shown after the printer in the Control Center. Now you can issue print jobs to this
printer. After all print jobs are finished, click the “Disconnect” button.
H. Even you already properly setup an auto-connected printer, the Control Center
must be running while a print job is issued. This means you’d better run the
Control Center every time after you login Windows. In order to skip this manual
operation, you can make the Control Center be run automatically after you login
Windows. To do this, choose the “Configuration” item in the “Tools” menu. The
following window will appear. Click on the check box and then on the “OK” button.
This feature is enabled by default.
I. If you would like to break the association between the Windows printer and the
physical printer, just click on the association and click the “Delete” button in the

F. After the scanning finished, click the “Disconnect” button in the Control Center to
release the ownership of the scanner (or MFP).
The steps described above require manual “connect” and “disconnect” operations
62
before and after the scanning, respectively. We will introduce “auto-connect scanning”
in the following section.
7.3.4 NetUSB Scanning using Network Scan
For NetUSB scanning, we recommend you use Network Scan as the following steps.
A. In the Control Center, click the MFP Server that has the desired MFP attached.
B. Click the desired MFP.

device.
Please note that by this way, FAT32 and NTFS file system can be fully supported.
7.4 Limitations
There are some limitations to use the NetUSB technology.
A. Only supports Windows 2000/XP/2003. Windows 98/ME is not supported.
B. Only one PC can get the ownership of the same USB device at the same time.
Moreover, once a USB device is “connected” by a PC so that the PC “owns”
that USB device, other PCs can not “access” this USB device by any means.
For example, if a printer is connected by a PC using the NetUSB technology,
no other PCs can print to this printer by LPR or SMB or IPP protocols, until the
printer is disconnected.
C. For USB storage, although NTFS can be supported by the NetUSB technology,
it can not be shared among network users.

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 communica-
tions. 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
