UNIX NOTE Not all utilities are provided for every operating system. Please check with your support website for latest information. This section applies to devices which support PCL or Postscript. OVERVIEW The printer supports many protocols such as LPD, FTP, TELNET, SNMP and IPP, and works within the UNIX environment. To use the network card within the UNIX environment, the following steps are required: CONFIGURATION NETWORK INTERFACE CARD SETTING The first step in installing the network card under UNIX is to set up the IP address, Subnet Mask and Gateway. This section explains one way to set them up from a UNIX workstation. > The network addresses used in this manual are shown as examples only. Network addresses used in your installation must be generated for your own network. > Log in as root to change the configuration of the printer. > If an incorrect IP address, Subnet Mask or Gateway is entered, the network may go down or other damage may occur. Check the address with your network manager. The following explanation uses Sun Solaris 2.8 (Solaris 8) as an example. The actual commands may differ between versions of UNIX, so refer to the workstation manuals for more information. NOTE If you do not have superuser rights, the network manger should conduct the configuration. 1. Log in as root to the workstation. 2. If the printer does not have an IP address already assigned, use the arp command to set a temporary IP address. Example: for IP address 192.68.20.127 and network card address 00:80:87:01:00:D2 # arp -s 192.168.20.127 00:80:87:01:00:D2 temp The Ethernet address (MAC address) 00:80:87:01:00:D2 in the above example can be determined from the network card self-diagnostic test. 3. Use the ping command to confirm the connection with the network interface card. Example: for IP address 192.168.20.127 # ping 192.168.20.127 If there is no reply, there is a problem with the configuration of the IP address (the IP address has already been set manually or dynamically), or with the network. Reset the network interface card settings to default and try to set a temporary IP address. If you still have the problem after resetting the network interface card, consult the network manager.
