Introduction The C82331* EPSON Type B Ethernet Interface Card is a combination of hardware and software that lets you connect an EPSON printer equipped with an optional Type B interface slot directly to your network.
AppleTalk D Supports Ethertalk Phase I and Phase II communication. Ll Provides easy installation with Epson Zoner and Epson Namer utilities. Requires only the Epson Zoner utility for set up in Ethertalk Phase II. Cl Works with optionally equipped PostScript TM (EpsonScript) printers.
Ethernet Card Hardware The Ethernet Card is an interface card that plugs into an EPSON printer’s optional Type B interface slot. It has connectors for either an Ethernet Thin Coaxial (l0BASE2) or an Ethernet Twisted-Pair (l0BASE-T) network connection.
EPSON Printers Supported by the Ethernet Card EPSON’s Ethernet Card can be installed in a variety of EPSON laser and dot-matrix printers. Check you printer guide for a list of optional interfaces that can be installed in your printer, or check with your local EPSON dealer.
Note: LI The default interface setting is print server mode. If you are setting up the card for use in the Novell Net Ware environment, you will need to determine whether you want to set up the Ethernet Card in print server, remote printer, or Auto PrintServer/Remote mode.
Ethertalk is AppleTalk’s communication protocol governing Ethernet transmissions. A print spooler is an application that places print jobs or requests in a queue. TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) is a layer of protocols that provides communications between nodes on a network.
This chapter explains how to install the Ethernet Card in your printer. Subsequent chapters describe how to install the interface on your network. See the section that applies to your particular network for more information.
You need to install the Ethernet Card in the optional interface slot of your EPSON printer. Bee your printer guide for the location of the optional interface slot. The method of installing this interface card varies by printer. The instructions for your printer are located in your printer manual in the section on using printer options.
Connecting the network cable Once the board is installed in your printer, you must attach the network cable to the interface. The Ethernet Card can accept either a 10BASE-T or 10BASE2 network cable.
Ethernet Card Operation The LED lights and the status sheet function can provide you with important information about the operation of the Ethernet Card. Lights This section describes the Ethernet Card indicator light behavior, including when you first turn on the host printer, during normal conditions, and when errors occur.
Printer Initialization After Ethernet Card installation, the red and green status lights on the interface flash simultaneously during printer initialization. Network recognition and normal operation At start up, the Ethernet Card checks all active NetWare file servers.
If normal operation is suspended for any reason, the Ethernet Card enters an error state (red and green status lights are lit). To obtain a printout describing the error, press the Status Sheet/Error Resume button once. After printing the report, the card returns to its normal operating mode (green status light is lit).
Chapter 2 Installing on Novell NetWare The Ethernet Card can function as a print server or remote printe r running under Novell NetWare. It also has an automatic print server/remote printer mode that allows it to switch modes depending on network conditions.
Before setting up Lt First decide whether you want to use the interface card as a dedicated print server or remote printer, or in Auto PrintServer/Remote mode. Lt Install the Ethernet Card and connect it to the network following the instructions in Chapter 1.
For DOS: At a workstation with a high-density disk drive, insert the EPSON Net! for NetWare diskette in drive A (or B). Use the DOS COPY command (copy a:filename. *) to copy the following files to a network directory or to your hard drive: EPNWDE.EXE! EPNWDE.
Remote printer mode As a remote printer, the Ethernet Card emulates a workstation running Novell’s RPRINTER program, and operates under the control of a Novel NetWare print server. The print server can be either a dedicated workstation running PSERVER or a file server.
Auto PrintServer/Remote mode In Auto PrintServer/Remote mode, the Ethernet Card provides automatic switching between print server and remote printer operation, depending on network conditions.
Using the Ethernet Card as a Print Server Each Ethernet Card, whe n running in print server mode, requires a connection to a file server. In addition, the Ethernet Card can service up to 32 queues and eight file servers in print server mode.
2. Run the EPSON Net! utility program to configure the card. After searching the network, the following dialog box appears. 3. Highlight the printer you want to configure from the list and then click Open. The following dialog box opens, giving you important information about the status of your printer.
4. For additional information, click the Printer Status button. Click OK to exit. 5. From the NetWare Status dialog box, click Edit to configure printer.
The default setting is print server mode. You can also configure the printer to work in remote printer or Auto PrintServer/Remote mode. For more information, see the related sections later in this chapter. 6. The default printer name appears in the Print Server name box.
11. Repeat steps 7 through 10 if you want to add additional print queues to the print server. 12. To save your settings, click Save. Caution: Once you make changes to the Ethernet Card, you must wait for at leastfive minutes before turning off or rebooting your printer.
2. Select the file server you want to attach the printer to from the File Server list. If you have not already logged on to the selected file server, the Login Fileserver dialog box appears. 3. Enter a user name with supervisor privileges and the password and click OK.
Changing the configuration in print server mode In print server mode, you can use the EPSON Net! utility to do the following: Cl Rename print server 0 Enter password Cl Set queue polling time Before editing the Ethernet Card configuration with EPSON Net!, you must first log on to the network with supervisor privileges.
A password is not required for Ethernet Card operation. However, if you wish to connect to a restricted file server, you will need to use EPSON Net! to enter the encrypted password. To enter the password, follow these steps: 1. From the NetWare config dialog box, click Password.
Setting the queue polling time interval Use EPSON Net! to change the interval at which the parallel port(s) check queues for waiting print jobs. To reduce network traffic, you can change the polling interval from 1 second up to 90 seconds. The default setting is 5 seconds.
2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. Enter PCONSOLE. From the Available Options screen, select Print Server Information. Next, select the print server name from the Print Servers list and press Enter. From the Print Server Information list, select Print Server Configuration and press Enter.
Using EPSON Net! 1. Run EPSON Net!. 2. Select the printer you wish to configure and click Open. 3. Click Edit to open the NetWare config dialog box. 4.
Changing the port number Use the EPSON Net! utility to change the parallel port number for the remote printer as follows: 1. Enter the number for any available port in the Port No. box. The available settings for Novell NetWare versions 3.x and below are from 0 to 15.
Configuring the Ethernet Card in Auto PrintServer/Remote Mode When using the Ethernet Card-equipped printer in Auto PrintServer/Remote mode, you need to configure it for both print server and remote printer operation.
Chapter 3 Installing on an Apple Ethertalk Network This chapter describes how to configure the Ethernet Card for use on an Apple Ethertalk network. Use the Epson Zoner and Epson Namer utilities to configure and install the interface card.
Renaming Your Printer Becuase your printer has a defualt name, you will need to rename it to avoid having multiple printers on the same network with the same name. Choose any name you like for your printer. The Epson Namer utility renames a selected AppleTalk device (printer).
3. Double-click on the Epson Namer icon to start the utility program. After Epson Namer searches your network, the following screen appears. You may need to scroll through the list of zones to find the one that contains your printer. Device Types: AppleTalk Zones: sni% Select Printer: New Name: hd TP System hd TP System 2 hdTP -NW 4.
5. Choose the zone, if any, that contains the printer you want to rename from the AppleTalk Zones list. 6. Select the printer you want to rename from the Select Printer list. If the zone has only one printer of the type specified in the Device Types list, that printer will be selected automatically.
Note: Do not use a name that is already assigned to an existing printer. 8. Click Rename. After a few moments, the new name will appear in the Select Printer list.
Selecting a Zone with Epson Zoner A zone is a group of users, computers, and devices, including printers. Zones can be grouped according to physical location, and would include, for example, all of the printers in a particular building. Zones can also be grouped logically, according to work groups or departments.
4. 5. 6. Double-click on Epson Zoner to expand the utility. Next, double-click the Epson Zoner icon. After searching your network, Epson Zoner displays the following screen. Highlight your printer name in the Printer list. If there are many devices on the network, you may have to scroll through the list to find your printer.
8. Click Quit to exit Epson Zoner. Be sure to notify all network users of the new zone for your printer. They will have to reselect the rezoned printer in the Chooser.
Chapter 4 Printing Documents with Windows NT The Ethernet Card provides network printing support in the Windows NT environment with DLC Transport protocol, and can be configured without a special setup utility.
How to configure the printer Follow these steps to configure the printer: 1. 2. Select Print Manager from the Main group. Choose Create Printer from the printer menu at the top of the screen. The Create Printer dialog box appears. 3. 4. 5. Enter a name for the printer in the Printer Name field.
9. Click OK to exit the Add a Network Peripheral Port dialog box. Note: You may share the new printer if you wish. To do so, click the Share the Printer on the Network box. The share name defaults to the printer name and can be changed if necessary. 10.
Chapter 5 Installing in Unix The Ethernet Card supports many standard UNIX commands and can be configured from a host computer without using a special setup utility.
Unless the network is not yet in existence, however, an address will already have been given to the network section that the Ethernet Card is to be plugged into.
Updating Hosts file Once the IP address is defined, the file /etc/hosts needs to have this IP address and host name added. For example: 132.147.69.4 Allison Testing the connection Use ping to test if the Ethernet Card is responding. For example, send the following command: PING Allison or PING 132.
5-4 Installing in UNI X.
Operation After setting up the card, you can use the routine lpr command from any host to direct a print file to the Ethernet Card. The card does not have to interpret any of the incoming print data whatsoever, allowing binary image files, font download files, as well as ASCII text to be printed transparently.
For programmers’ information, the Ethernet Card TCP/IP mode responds only to arp packets and to TCP/IP connections made to port (socket) x0203, and ftp socket.
ftp (Form feed) The Ethernet Card will append a form feed to the end of the print job if the destination file is given the name of “FEED” or “feed.
Note: tl To eliminate confusion, you should give the local and remote printers the same name, except where an existing local default name is required. Q Use the local printer name as the lpr entry on the lpr command line to direct the print.
Set Up Variations for Different UNIX OS Here are some scripts and setup examples for different types of UNIX systems: General interface program file $NETPRINTER=“132.200.69.4” copies=$4 shift;shift;shift;shift;shift; files&~$WJ i=l while [$i -1e $copies] do for file in $files do /bin/cat/tmp/ftp.
Set up for SCO UNIX Some UNIX systems, such as SCO, do not support the Berkeley lpr print function, The following script allows you to print from within some applications using ftp, which is supported on most TCP/IP systems. The script has been tested for SCO UNIX, but may require modification for other systems.
This script intercepts the print command and runs another printer interface script, in this case the printer “standard” using the same options ($@), redirecting the output to a temporary file. The script then opens an ftp session with the printer, sets binary mode and sends the temporary file to the printer.
Name of Queue EPSON Queuing discipline first come first serve Activate the queue Yes Destination Host 11.22.33.44 Pathname short filter Pathname long filter Name of queue for remote printer C8233l_PRT 5. Check the entry for your queue under Remote Printer Queue devices.
Set up for HP-UX System There are two methods of printing from HP UX, ftp and rlp (lpr). Both are set up using SAM. Enter the IP and Host name in the /etc/hosts file before starting SAM.
# Log in to peripheral switch to binary and send temporary file ( echo user xx echo binary echo put $TMPPATH echo bye ) ftp -i -n $PERIPH ERRSTAT=$? /bin/rm $TMPPATH exit $ERRSTAT * End of Script * RL.
