Accessing the Printer

Th e printer can be accessed and confi gured through the web interface,
but there are other ways to access the printer using the network. In this
chapter you can fi nd information about these additional interfaces.

Raw TCP

Having assigned an IP address to your EasyLAN network interface card,
as described in the Installation Instructions, you can manage your printer
using Telnet and Fingerprint or IPL commands.

Connection Settings

Th ere are some settings that will aff ect your connection. One way,
and perhaps the easiest, is to manage these through the web interface.
Connect to your printer using a web browser.
When an application is running, it may alter the communication settings
and therefore interfere with raw TCP (telnet) communications. Th e
settings described below makes it possible to connect to the printer with
a telnet client.

Std I/O and Application (Fingerprint only)

When you have accessed the printer's internal web pages, click on
Confi guration, Printer, and fi nally Web Shell.
Make sure that the standard I/O port is set to either auto or net1: and
that the application is set to Fingerprint. If you make changes, reboot the
printer for the settings to take eff ect.

TCP Port Number

When connected to the printer's internal web pages, click on
Confi guration, Network Admin, and fi nally TCP/IP.
Th e net1 TCP Port Number, default set to 9100, is needed to connect
with the telnet client.

Connecting

Start your telnet client and connect to the printer using either Host
Name or IP Address follow by the TCP Port Number. For example:
Telnet 192.168.235.150 9100
Th is will open a connection, which can be used to issue commands to
manage the printer.
