Changing Workgroup Names

Windows environments define groups of related computers as "workgroups."
By default, "WORKGROUP" is the name that is assigned to the ethernet
workgroup. However, you may want to change this to suit your network better.
To do this:
1. Load a Web browser on your Windows station and direct it to the URL:
http://EthernetInterfaceIPaddress/networkConf.html
(e.g., http://192.75.11.9/networkConf.html).
NOTE: If prompted for a "User ID" and password first, type in root for the ID
2. At the "Network Configuration" HTML form that displays, search for the
"Windows (NetBIOS TCP/IP)" section and highlight the "Workgroup
Name" field.
3. Type in the new workgroup name for the ethernet.
4. Click on the SUBMIT button when done and physically repower the print
server to make the new settings take effect.

Changing Destination Names

When defining some printers within Windows environments, the ethernet
requires that you specify a predefined destination rather than any name you
would like. For example, when creating a new printer under Windows NT, a
screen similar to Figure 27 displays.
The first field requires the IP address for the ethernet, and the second field
must be filled in with a valid destination from the print server (e.g., d1prn).
Otherwise, LPR will not be able to access the printer. Table 6 outlines the
default destinations to choose from.
