7 NetW are 4.x & 5.x Directory Services Configuration NetW are Directory Services (NDS) configuration is accomplished using two utilities; 1) NetW ares NW Admin is used to define the required D.
8 NetW are Directory Services Configuration continued... 3000E IPX Based Configuration IPX configuration is accomplished using the Management Access Program (MAP). 1. Install and Run MAP . ê Insert the CD included with the EcoLAN 3000E. ê In Windows 95, 98 or NT 4.
9 2. NetWare Configuration. ê Select Setup NetWare in the Protocols column. ê Enter the Print Server Name , Preferred NDS Context , and Print Server Password (if a password was defined) exactly as they were entered in NW Admin. Note: Entries are not case sensitive (except the sysadm pass- word).
10 Macintosh Configuration KPDL, Kyoceras PostScript compatible mode is required for Macintosh printing. KPDL is standard on many Kyocera printers, however , it is optional on the following models: FS-600, FS-680, FS-7000 and all LS (Japanese) models.
11 Inst alling the Driver and Selecting the Printer 1. The Macintosh LaserWriter Driver is installed from the CD provided with the printer . Insert the CD, open the Drivers folder , then the appropriate country folder , and double click on the FS-Series Installer program in the desired language.
12 Windows Peer to Peer Printing Configuration Peer to Peer printing is available for Windows 95, Windows 98 and Windows NT 4.0. What is Windows Peer to Peer Printing? The peer to peer printing software which is included with the EcoLAN 3000E allows Windows PCs to communicate directly with network attached printers.
13 IPX Printer Name: The IPX peer to peer printing software uses the NetW are Print Server Name to identify the 3000E. The default name is the serial number preceded by KYO, e.g., KYO_163495. If desired, this name can be changed to a more easily identifiable name with MAP .
Windows NT 4.0 Configuration There are several options for setting up printing in a Windows NT environment. u If a NetWare server is present, NetWare print services may be used by following the NetWare configuration instructions in this guide.
15 Configuring the Printer Driver for LPR Printing The printer driver should be installed from the CD which is shipped with the printer . Unfortunately , Windows does not make the Add LPR Port available to the Install Wizard on the CD. Therefore, the printer driver should be installed selecting a standard port such as LPT1.
16 DHCP Configuration (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) IMPORTANT: EcoLAN 3000E IP address assignment with DHCP will not work if the 3000E has an existing IP address and IP persistence is Permanent. DHCP provides a mechanism for delivering IP configuration parameters, including IP address, subnet mask, etc.
17 WINS Configuration (Windows Internet Naming Service) WINS provides a mechanism for mapping NetBIOS (Windows) names to IP ad- dresses. WINS enables defining a printing configuration which references the printer by its name rather than by its IP address.
18 UNIX Configuration UNIX printing utilizes a line printer daemon (lpd) to direct print jobs to the printer . The 3000E supports two modes of lpd printing, host-based lpd and printer-based lpd. With host-based lpd, the line printer daemon is run on one or more workstations (hosts) where print jobs are accepted and sent to the 3000E.
19 IP Address Setup with the Printer Front Panel Set the IP address and other 3000E parameters using the following procedure. Note: Setting the IP address with the front panel automatically sets IP Persistence to Permanent, that is, the IP address is maintained when the printer is turned off and on.
