Page 6: Introduction
The D-Link DP-G310 Print Server is an 802.11g Wireless USB 2.0 high-speed print server that also can connect to your Ethernet/Fast Ethernet network anywhere you wish to locate printer services. The DP-G310 manages the flow of print files from workstations or file servers to connected printers, delivering print jobs to printers much faster than a file server or a PC acting as a print server can.
Page 7 Because the DP-G310 is very portable and inexpensive compared to a PC-based print server, and Print Server connects to your file servers through the network, printers can be deployed to locations of maximum convenience to users. The DP-G310 offers extraordinary flexibility, operating with all major network...

Page 12: Wireless Basics
D-Link wireless products are based on industry standards to provide easy-to-use and compatible high-speed wireless connectivity within your home, business or public access wireless networks. D-Link wireless products allow you to access the data you want, when and where you want. You will be able to enjoy the freedom that wireless networking brings.
Page 13 Wireless network devices are as competitively priced as conventional Ethernet network devices. Standards-Based Technology Based on the IEEE 802.11g standard, the DP-G310 is interoperable with existing ∗ compatible 2.4GHz wireless technology with data transfer speeds of up to 54Mbps ∗ Maximum wireless signal rate based on IEEE Standard 802.11g specifications.
Page 14: Wireless Installation Considerations
1. Keep the antenna of the DP-G310 in an upright position. 2. Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the DP-G310 and other network devices to a minimum. Each wall or ceiling can reduce your D-Link wireless products range from 3-90 feet (1-30 meters). Position your devices so that the number of walls or ceilings is minimized.
Page 15: Setting Up The Dp-G310
Follow this procedure to avoid complications at the configuration stage. 1. Confirm proper operation of the printers to be connected to the DP-G310. 2. When you have confirmed proper operation of the printer, switch its power OFF.
Page 16: Power On Self-Test
Power ON Self-Test Every DP-G310 has been factory-tested to operate properly. When the DP-G310 is powered ON, it also automatically performs a Self-Test on each of its major components. The final result of the Self-Test is signaled by the state of the USB LED indicator following the Self-Test. Preliminary to the actual component tests, the four LED indicators are tested to confirm their steady and flashing operation.

Page 119: Unix/Linux Printing
Unix/Linux Printing Printing Text Files form Unix Text files on Unix systems contain lines that end with “newline” characters, as opposed to MS-DOS and Windows-related operating systems that end with a carriage return followed by a linefeed. Most printers require a carriage return/linefeed pair at the end of each line, making it necessary for some translation to be done before Unix text files can be printed on most printers.
Page 120: Printing Form Bsd Unix Versions
SunOS 4.x, Linux, BSD/OS, FreeBSD, or NetBSD, you can use the following procedure to enable users to print to a printer connected to your D-LINK network print server: 1. Log in as the superuser (root). 2. Add an entry for the print server in the host’s /etc/hosts file, giving a hostname for the print server’s IP address.
Page 121 chown bin.daemon /var/spool/hp5l chmod 775 /var/spool/hp5l 5.
