SNMP Setup  TCP/IP  networks  use  a  standard  management  protocol  called  Simple  Network Management Protocol (SNMP). SNMP is widely used in the industry as a solution for remote network  management  and  monitoring  of  networking  devices.  SNMP  actually  includes  a protocol, a database structure specification, and a set of database objects. The database objects are contained in a standard database called Management Information Base (MIB) that  is  stored  on  the  networking  device  called  SNMP  agent.  The  print  server's  SNMP implementation runs in a TCP/IP environment.  A  host  on  the  network  running  Network  Management  System  (NMS)  software  can access the print server device by reading and writing the MIB objects stored in the device. The Network Management Systems are available from many third-party vendors, such as Hewlett-Packard's OpenView.  When accessing (traversing) MIB objects in the print server using NMS software called SNMP  manager,  you  need  to  provide  a  community  name  in  each  SNMP  request  for authentication purpose. The print server supports up to two community names. The default community name is public (case-sensitive), with Read Only access right in default. When  an  unusual  condition  or  activity  occurs,  the  SNMP  agent  alerts  the  SNMP manager through SNMP traps. Following list summaries SNMP trap messages that the print server will send out.   Activities/SNMP Trap Messages       Description Link Up or Link Down  When the network interface on the print server fails, a link down trap message is generated; if the network interface comes back to life, a link up trap message is sent.  Cold Start or Warm Start  When the print server restarts, the cold start or warm start trap message is generated.  Authentication Failure  When  the  print  server  received  a  SNMP request  with  a community  name  that  does  not  match  the  community name  the  print  server  is  configured  with    (stored  in  the print  server's memory),  an  authentication  failure  trap message is generated.   In the print server's SNMP implementation, the following MIB objects are available for updating.
  54MIB Object Names          Description system.sysContact  Indicates the network administrator's name.  system.sysName  Indicates the print server's name for identification.  system.sysLocation  Indicates the location of the print server. snmp.snmpEnableAuthenTraps Enables  or  disables  the  function  of  sending  SNMP Authentication  Failure  trap  message  to  the  network administrator,  if  the  community  name  within  a  SNMP request is not correct.

TCP/IP LPR Port Printing Installation    Basic TCP/IP Installation Overview When installing your print server in a TCP/IP environment, IP addresses are essential as a basic means of communications.  It is therefore necessary to first assign an IP address to your  print  server  unit.  After  assigning  an  IP  address,  the  print  server  can  be  configured accordingly.    Assigning an IP Address The first step to install a print server on a TCP/IP network is to assign the print server an IP address and  other  related  TCP/IP settings  before  the  print  server  can  function.  You  can select the following two methods to specify an IP address the print server. Each method will be detailed in the following section.  1.  Use the PSAdmin utility.  2.  Manually specify (using DOS commands or UNIX text-mode commands. This   applies to Windows NT/2000/XP/2003 and UNIX systems).  Note: The Network  Print  Monitor can only search for  the  print  server(s) over the same network  segment  the  Windows  NT/2000/XP/2003/UNIX  computer  is  located.  You would like to install a print server on a different network segment.    DHCP
  62The print server supports DHCP feature, allowing the print server to obtain an IP address and  related  TCP/IP  settings  automatically  from  a  DHCP  server.  While  the  print  server supports DHCP, we strongly recommend you  manually  specify a fixed IP address  to  the print server. By default, the print server’s DHCP function is disabled.

Moving Your Computer to A New Segment  If you are using  the  print  server  through  the  Network  Print  Port  on  your  NT  or  Windows 95/98/Me computer and your computer is going to be moved  onto  another  segment,  you have to reconfigure the print server on your computer to use your print server. However, this situation is like moving the print server to a new segment. Please refer to the “Moving the print server to a new segment” section for more detailed reconfiguration instructions.  Novell NetWare Troubleshooting Many  printing  problems  can  be  traced  back  to  incorrect  or  incomplete  print  server installations. It is always wise to check the installation configurations first.
                                                                                            77  In some cases, if necessary, delete the print server, print queue(s) or other setting(s). Next recreate the necessary parameters or reconfigure the print server by running the PSAdmin.  TCP/IP Troubleshooting When you  are configuring a new print server  on  your  NT/UNIX  server  through  LPR  Port printing under  TCP/IP protocol,  you  might  encounter  the  following  problem in  your  initial installation steps:       " I can do the "arp" command. However, when I am going to ping or tftp the print server, it always  shows  Request  timed  out.  I  have  checked  the  print server’s  power  and  it  exactly passed the POST. Besides, the network cabling is OK. As such, I can't do tftp command to get and put the print server's configuration file and save its IP address permanently. I can't, therefore, continue installing the print server."   Regarding this problem, there are three possible causes:  A.  The print server's Node ID you specified in the "arp" command is not correct.                                                          If this is the case, please ensure the Node ID field in the corresponding entry of the print server's IP address in NT's ARP cache table is correct by typing the following command at NT's DOS prompt. "arp -a"  If the Node ID shown on the screen doesn't match the print server's Node ID, please follow the instructions below to reset the entry.  1.  At NT's DOS prompt, type "arp -d <print server's IP address>" to delete the current entry.  2.  Type "arp -s <print server's IP> <print server's Node ID>" to specify a new ARP entry.  3.  Refer to Chapter 7 for the detailed instructions to complete the installation.   B.  The print server's IP address is duplicated or is as same as another computer's IP address on the network.                      If this is the case, please consult your network administrator to obtain an unused IP address for your print server.   C.  The print server is on one segment and your Windows NT server is on the other segment.                                               (This troubleshooting guide will also apply to a multiple-segmented network while installing the print server)  For example, assuming the print server is on Segment A, NT server is on Segment B, and there is a gateway computer between Segment A and Segment B. The network might be a complete TCP/IP network, or a hybrid of TCP/IP and IPX/SPX network.
  78If this is the case, you have to adopt the following steps, depending on which platform the gateway computer is.  a.  If the gateway computer is a NT/UNIX server:  You have to do the same "arp" command to specify an entry on the NT/UNIX computer as a gateway in order for it to forward your subsequent "ping" or/and "tftp" commands to the print server.  b.  If the gateway computer is a Novell NetWare file server:  1.  Due to the presence of this NetWare file server, the IPX/SPX protocol might be used on your  network.  Therefore,  we  strongly  suggest  you  run  the  PSAdmin  from  any  client computer and select "Manual Setup" to specify the print server's IP address (For more detailed information about Manual Setup, please refer to Chapter 3).  2.  If  the  solution  described  above  is  not  applicable,  you  have  to  follow  the  instructions below to set up the print server's IP address. For  the  purpose  of  explanation,  we  assume  the  NT  server  is  on  Segment  A  and  its  IP address is 192.72.214.66 (subnet mask: 255.255.255.224), the print server is going to be installed on Segment B, with IP address, for example, 192.72.214.100.  1.  Find an unused IP address on Segment A for temporary use in the following steps, for example, 192.72.214.68.  2.  Connect your print server to Segment A as a networked node.  3.  On  your  NT  server,  type,  for  example,  "arp  -s  192.72.214.68  00-40-01-3F-02-AB". Please note, in this arp command you have to type 192.72.214.68 on purpose. Do not type this IP address as 192.72.214.100.  4.  Type  "tftp 192.722.214.68 get  config.txt". The  configuration  file  will  then  be  retrieved and transferred to your NT server.  5.  Type "edit config.txt" to modify this configuration file.  6.  In your editor, modify "BoxIPAddress" field from "0.0.0.0" to "192.72.214.100". Leave other options as default and do not change their values. When done, save this new file  and  quit  from  your  editor.  Please  note,  in  this  step  you  must  specify  an  IP address  which  is  valid  on  Segment  B, such  as  192.72.214.100  in  this  example, rather than 192.72.214.68.  7.  Type, for example, "tftp 192.72.214.68 put config.txt" to save this new configuration back to print server.  8.  Move the print server back to the Segment B.   9.  Done!
                                                                                            79   Appendix  SMB Printing with Windows XP 1.  Enable  the  SMB  settings  from  the  print  server’s  WEB  configuration.  Assume  your computers use the “WORKGROUP” as the SMB workgroup name in Windows. Please assign the same SMB name to your print server. If print server uses the different SMB name from computers’, the SMB printing won’t active.                         2.  Now you can find the print server from the SMB workgroup of Windows. Then, double click it. 1 2 3

Print Self-test Page: 1.  Verify the power of print server is turned on. 2.  Press the reset button for 5 seconds, and then release it. 3.  Then the self-test page including the factory default settings will be printed.                    Note: 1. It is strongly recommended to use Laser Printer for self-test page printing. 2. Some printers are not supposed to print the self-test page completely. For example, the HP deskjet 948c/895CXi will print the self-test page, but its paper-out LED will light up.
  84 Frequently Asked Questions  Question A  Print jobs are sent to the print queue successfully, but fail to be sent to the printer.  Possible explanations  1.  The Print server Name/Print Queue configuration in PCONSOLE is incorrect. 2.  The Print server name specified and stored in the print server memory doesn’t match the same one set in PCONSOLE. 3.  The  network  cable  or  power  adapter  connected  to  the  print  server  is  loose  or disconnected. 4.  The printer is off-line, jammed or out of paper.  Solutions  1.  Check all the information in PCONSOLE. 2.  Check all the information of the print server by running PSAdmin. 3.  Check to see that if the network cabling and power adapter are properly connected. 4.  Recheck  the  print  server  connection  by  running  the  PSAdmin.  It  should  read “Connected.”   Question B  Print jobs start printing, but print very slowly or print unknown characters.  Possible explanation and solution  A printer driver is missing or is incompatible with that printer.  Using a print driver that is not specific for the printer can cause printing errors.  Install the proper printer driver. If these printer drivers are not available to you, please contact your printer manufacturer.   Question C  The  upgrading  process  indication  bar  stops  and  does  not  seem  to  proceed  again  while upgrading the print server.  Possible Explanation
                                                                                            85   There might be a network problem. This causes the upgrading procedure to fail.  Solutions  1.  Check the network cabling, especially from the workstation running the PSAdmin to the print server unit. 2.  Run the PSAdmin and upgrade the print server again. Question D  The Status LED light keeps blinking after POST.  Possible explanation and solution  The last upgrade process was not completed.  The print server must be upgraded again by using the PSAdmin.  Please see Chapter 3 for details.   Question E  The  PSAdmin reports  “Create  Print  server  Error”,  “Create  Printer  Error”,  or  “Create  Print Queue Error” while using Auto Setup.  Possible Explanation  The print server name, the printer name, or the print queue name you specified in the Auto Setup dialogue box contains a space.  Solution  Check to see if there is a space in the print server name, the printer name, or the queue name. Type in a new name without a space between two characters or replace a space by a dash (-) or an underscore (_).   Question F  The PSAdmin reports “Print server Already Exists”, “Printer Already Exists”, or “Print Queue Already Exists” after specifying the print server name, or the print queue name in Auto Setup.  Possible Explanation  A same print server name or queue names exists in the specific NetWare file server as the one you specified in the Auto Setup dialogue box.  Solution
  86Specify a new print server name or queue name in the Auto Setup.   Question G  The setup Wizard can’t find print server.  Possible Explanation  The Personal Firewall installed in your computer blocks the connection.  Solution  Please disable the Personal Firewall or adjust the security level to lower.
