• The ARP command only works once. For security reasons, once you have successfully configured the IP address of a Brother Print Server using the ARP command, you can not use the ARP command again to change the address. The print server will ignore any attempts to do this. If you wish to change the IP address again, use a web browser, TELNET (using the SET IP ADDRESS command as described in Appendix A), the printer front panel (if you have an LCD panel) or factory reset the print server (which will then allow you to use the ARP command again). 2. Verify the connection by using the “ping” command with the address or name of the print server. For example: ping 192.189.207.77 If you have put an entry into the hosts file, substitute 'bro' with the name you have entered. Otherwise use desired IP address in place of 192.189.207.77. In the above example, the name 'bro' will be associated with the IP address 192.189.207.77. 3-11 USER’S GUIDE USER’S GUIDE 1. From the OS/2 desktop open the Templates folder. Use the right mouse button to drag the Printer icon (not the Network Printer icon) onto the desktop. 2. The Create a Printer window should be open (if it is not, double click on the printer icon). - Type in any name for the printer. - Select the default printer driver. If the desired printer driver is not listed, click on the Install new Printer Driver button and add the driver. - Choose the output port. IBM TCP/IP automatically creates 8 named pipes called \PIPE\LPD0 through to \PIPE\LPD7. Pick an unused port and double click on it. 2 Note Early versions of Warp Server have a bug in which the named pipes do not appear (the problem does not affect Warp Connect or LAN Server). This problem is fixed via a patch available from IBM. You will get the Settings window. Enter the following: LPD server The Brother print server name (from the HOSTS file)or its IP address. LPD printer For most applications, use the Brother print server 'binary' service BINARY_P1. However, if you are printing text files from the DOS or OS/2 command prompt, you should use the text service TEXT_P1, which will add carriage returns for proper formatting of the data (but will potentially distort graphics printouts). Host name The IP name of the OS/2 file server User The IP address of the OS/2 file server You may leave the other entries blank. Click on the OK button. The pipe should be highlighted; if not click on it. Click on the Create button to create the printer. 3. Open the LAN Services folder and execute the LAN Requester program: 3-12 CHAPTER 3 WINDOWS NT AND LAN SERVER NETWORK CONFIGURATION (TCP/IP) CHAPTER 3 WINDOWS NT AND LAN SERVER NETWORK CONFIGURATION (TCP/IP) Alias Should be same as the printer name previously defined Description Anything you want Server name Name of OS/2 server Spooler queue Name of printer as defined previously Maximum number of users Leave blank unless you want to limit the number of users - Exit the LAN Requester program. 4. You should now be able to print. To test the queue, type the following from either the OS/2 command prompt or from a DOS workstation: COPY C:\CONFIG.SYS \\servername\alias Where servernameis the name of the file server and alias is the alias name that you specified during this configuration process. This should print the CONFIG.SYS file on the printer. Note that if you selected a binary service as the LPD printer name, the lines will be staggered; don't worry about this because normal DOS, Windows, and OS/2 applications will print OK. 5. The Brother print server will appear as a standard OS/2 printer to application programs. To make the print server operate transparently with DOS programs, execute the following command on each workstation: NET USE LPT1: \\servername\alias This will make the printer and the Brother print server appear to the software as a printer that is directly connected to the parallel port of the workstation. 3-13 CHAPTER 4 WINDOWS 95/98 PEER-TO-PEER CONFIGURATION WINDOWS 95/98 PEER-TO-PEER CONFIGURATION CHAPTER 4 WINDOWS 95/98 PEER-TO-PEER CONFIGURATION WINDOWS 95/98 PEER-TO-PEER CONFIGURATION Microsoft's Windows 95/98 operating system features built-in networking capabilities. These capabilities allow a Windows 95/98 PC to be configured as a client workstation in a NetWare, Windows NT, PATHWORKS, LAN Server, and Banyan VINES environment. For smaller networks, Windows 95/98 also allows the PC to operate in a peer-to-peer mode. In this mode, the PC can share resources with other PCs on the network without the need for a central file server. There are two methods of working in Windows 95/98 peer to peer printing mode. One method uses the Brother LPR Port driver. Brother print servers are also compatible with HP’s JetAdmin compatible method. LPR method This software requires the TCP/IP protocol to be installed on your Windows 95/98 peer-to-peer computers and an IP Address had to be defined for the print server. To install the TCP/IP protocol refer to your Windows 95/98 docume...
