Frequently Asked Questions
17.
Is the appliance compatible with non-HP print servers?
Yes. Any print server that supports LPD should work with the appliance. You may have to know the
proper LPD remote queue name for the print server. Many print servers will work without specifying
a remote queue name (use the default HP PRINT SERVER setting); however, some require a special
string in order to work. The LPD remote queue name can be obtained from the print server vendor.
18.
What kind of security does the appliance employ?
The appliance has a front panel password to prevent unauthorized front panel configuration. It also
has a web password required to configure the device or manage print queues. The appliance also
supports
NT domain
19.
My DHCP server automatically assigned an IP address to a new printer I've added to the
network. Where do I find that address?
You can either print out a printer test page, or access the DHCP server to display the scope of Active
Leases.
20.
How do I store new printer drivers on the appliance?
The appliance comes preloaded with numerous HP printer drivers. While these will cover most needs,
other drivers might be required. This section discusses the procedure for adding drivers to the
appliance.
The first step is to create a printer on the appliance and the second is to update the driver from a
Windows NT or Windows 2000 client. After a driver has been added using this procedure, the driver
will be available to printers subsequently created from within the web interface.
Step 1: Create a Printer on the Print Server Appliance
The first step to adding a driver that is not already on the appliance is to create a printer using the
standard steps. You should web into the appliance and select the Printers page.
