Connecting The Printer Through The Parallel Port; Printing A Test Label - Intermec EasyCoder PD41 User Manual

Chapter 1 — Getting Started
3 Turn the printer off. Print a test label to find out which IP
number has been assigned to the printer (see the next section
for information on how to print test labels).
4 Enter the printer's IP number in the address field of your web
browser (for example http://255.255.255.001). This brings
up the printer's home page, where it is possible to check and
modify various printer settings. Modifying settings requires a
login and a password: by default, these are set to "admin" and
"pass" respectively.
Please refer to the EasyLAN Software for PD41 Installation
Instructions document and the EasyLAN User's Guide for more
information on how to set up and operate the PD41 in your
network environment.
If your network does not assign IP numbers automatically, or the
Ready-to-Work indicator is flashing to indicate a network error,
you can use PrintSet 4 (found on the PrinterCompanion CD) to
correct the network settings. Alternatively, set up a terminal
connection through the serial interface and use the Fingerprint
command. See "Changing Configuration Settings" on
SETUP
page 44, or refer to the Intermec Fingerprint v10.X.X
Programmer's Reference Manual. IPL users should turn to the
EasyLAN Software for PD41 Installation Instructions for
information on how to manually configure the network
connection.

Connecting the Printer through the Parallel Port

Use the parallel interface (also referred to as "centronics"), with
Intermec LabelShop or the Intermec InterDriver. The parallel
port supports Windows plug-n-play and additional status
reporting through IEEE 1284 nibble ID mode. Cable is not
included.

Printing a Test Label

In order to verify that the printer is fully functional and to obtain
its current configuration, you can print a test label. This
procedure is part of the Testmode function, described in full in
Chapter 5.
