The impact of IPsec when you print using Océ WPD through a print server
2. To test the configuration, open a 'command' window and issue a 'ping' command from this IPsec
station to the printer/scanner controller
When the test works properly it is recommended to disable the 'Failsafe mode' on the printer/
scanner controller. So, only the IPsec station is allowed to communicate with the printer/scanner
system.
NOTE
In case you use the WPD driver, see

The impact of IPsec when you print using Océ WPD through a print server
Introduction
When you use WPD on a print server, with advanced accounting activated, the use of IPsec has
an impact on the workflow.
When the following conditions are gathered:
• A print server is configured as an IPsec station. Océ WPD is installed on the print server.
• IPsec is activated and the 'Failsafe mode' is disabled on the printer controller.
• The client workstation is not configured as an IPsec station.
• The client workstation uses the Océ WPD shared driver installed on the print server (Point &
Print) to print jobs.
Pre-requisites
When advanced accounting is required, make sure you configured Account Center BEFORE
disabling the 'Failsafe mode' on the printer controller.
Consequences of the IPsec configuration on the client workstation:
The back-channel information (printer status, feed data) is not retrieved from the printer. It is not
displayed in the driver interface.
On the workstation, when the job is sent with Océ WPD:
• The required accounting information is not requested when submitting the job.
• The submitted job is stored in the Smart Inbox. It is not printed since accounting information is
missing.
Open the Inbox in Océ Express WebTools (on an IPsec station) to enter the required accounting
information and print the job.
NOTE
To be able to enter the accounting information and print directly from the workstation, enable
the 'Failsafe mode' on the controller.
Then, the accounting window will be displayed on the client workstation, and the accounting
information can be entered to print the job.
