Chapter 3 Configuring The Print Server
Configuration Alternatives
Besides the HTML forms and software provided, the LineJet Print Server
internal command shell, npsh, can also be reached using the following
methods.
The Print Server Manager Utility
The Print Server
printer manager utility is a versatile and dynamic program. It
allows you to remotely organize all the printers in your office in a single
database; download software and printer settings from a host computer with a
single mouse click; and use a virtual operator’s panel to configure printers in
the same room or on the other side of the world.
Telnet
A TCP/IP command that helps configure LineJet Print Server settings
remotely. A TCP/IP host starts a Telnet session with the print server and logs
in to the device command shell to alter and view settings.
Example:
telnet 192.75.11.9
Remote Shell
A TCP/IP command that helps configure print server settings remotely. A
TCP/IP host uses this command to remotely execute a single command on
the LineJet Print Server.
Example:
rsh spike list prn
This command remotely executes the npsh command list prn on the
LineJet Print Server named
spike
.
Configuration Using a Web Browser
The LineJet Print Server settings can be configured over TCP/IP through a
standard Web browser. The LineJet Print Server Web pages provide a handy
way to access some of the commands built into the print server. You can
access online help for all HTML pages.
To access the LineJet Print Server home page:
1. Make sure the print server has an IP address and subnet mask so it is
recognizable on your TCP/IP network.
Note If a router is used, make sure a gateway value is configured.
