Configuring Network Settings With A Configuration File - PrinterOn PrintConnect Installation And Configuration Manual

PrintConnect looks for and processes the configuration file first. If both a reset and a
configuration file are present on the USB drive, the configuration file is processed first
and then the reset file is processed. The device reboots after processing each file.

3.2.1 Configuring network settings with a configuration file

To create a PrintConnect configuration file, you need the PrintConnect Configuration
Utility, available at www.printeron.com/support/downloads.html. The utility requires
JRE v1.6.0 (also called Java Version 6) or later. The JRE is available for download from the
same location.
To configure the PrintConnect with a configuration file:
1. Download and launch the PrintConnect Configuration Utility.
2. Using the Configuration Utility, set the values for PrintConnect Hardware ID,
password, log level, Fixed IP and HTTP Proxy, as required.
Note: The Hardware ID value, is the Configuration Key for your PrintConnect, a 12-
character alphanumeric value unique to each device, which you should have
recorded
that your PrintConnect came in.
For details on any of the other options, refer to
interface.
3. Copy the configuration file to your USB drive.
Important! Ensure there is no "reset" file on the USB drive.
4. Insert the USB drive into one of the USB ports on the PrintConnect.
5. With the USB drive inserted into the PrintConnect, restart the PrintConnect device.
When the device restarts, it process the configuration file.
After the file is processed, PrintConnect reboots to ensure that all configuration
values are updated correctly.
After the reboot, the configuration file is renamed config.bak.
6. Press the ? key on the PrintValet. The second line of the PrintValet screen should
display 12-character alphanumeric Configuration Key for the PrintConnect.
