    Basic Terminology 1.1 Basic Terminology In order to install your print server, you will need various data and parameters. This information will be explained in this section. 1.1.1. Hardware Address Structure of A print server is addressable by means of its world-wide unique Hardware Address hardware address.
  • Page 11: Print Server Name

    Basic Terminology 1.1.2. Print Server Name Name Structure The print server name is made up of two letters 'SB' and the print server number. The print server number consists of the last six numbers of its hardware address. Example: Hardware address: 00:c0:eb:00:01:ff Print server name: SB0001FF...

In order to install your print server in TCP/IP-based networks, you must enter certain data and parameters. This information is described in the following section.
  • Page 15: Methods Of Saving The Ip Address In The Print Server

    Basic TCP/IP Terminology The following network classes can be distinguished: Fig. 1-1: TCP/IP network classes All IP addresses assigned in a logical network must belong to the same class. Example You have applied for a class C network ID and receive network ID '192.168.0.' Due to the fact that user IDs '0' and '255' are reserved for broadcast addresses, a valid IP address must lie somewhere between '192.168.0.1' and '192.168.0.254', such as...

The BOOTP Boot Protocol If your network uses the boot protocol BOOTP, the '/etc/bootptab' file must be supplemented. This file is located on the host running the BOOTP daemon.
  • Page 17 Basic TCP/IP Terminology either the local 'etc/hosts' file or the DNS host. The print data can then be sent to this IP address. You can also enter the IP address instead of the host name during print server installation. If you have done this, you may then send print data directly to the IP address.

You can also enter the IP address instead of the host name during the print server installation. If you have done this, you may then send print data directly to the IP address.
  • Page 19 Basic TCP/IP Terminology Procedure Proceed as follows: 1. Edit the ARP table: Syntax: arp -s <IP address> <hardware address> Example: arp -s 192.168.0.123 00-c0-eb-00-01-ff 2. Assign a new IP address to the print server: Syntax: ping <IP address> Example: ping 192.168.0.123 Trouble Shooting The 'Addition failed' error occurs when you use the 'arp' command.

KYOCERA Printer Operating Panel With all KYOCERA printers, you can enter the IP address directly into the printer operating panel and save it in the print server. In addition to the IP address, you can also change other parameters using the printer operating panel.

    Basic TCP/IP Terminology 1.2.2.6. PRESCRIBE Commands for KYOCERA Printers You can also use PRESCRIBE commands to save the IP address in the print server. In addition to the IP address, you can also change other parameters using PRESCRIBE commands. Please read the "Configuring Parameters Using PRESCRIBE Commands for KYOCERA Printers"...

This is carried Name out either in the 'hosts' file or on the DNS or WINS server. In this manual, only the allocation of the host name to the IP address using the 'hosts' file is described.
  • Page 23: Tcp/Ip Ports

    Basic TCP/IP Terminology 1.2.5. TCP/IP Ports What Are TCP/IP During the transfer of files between two computers, addressing Ports? with the IP address alone generally does not suffice. In addition to the IP address, the port number (TCP/IP port)is used. This number defines a specific computer memory area reserved for a specific communications connection.
  • Page 24: Gateway

    Basic TCP/IP Terminology Port number Preset function Logical printer 9104 Prints all data in hex dump mode. Hex dump mode is mainly used to search for errors in print data. The data is printed as a byte in hexadecimal form instead of letters and numbers. Printer control commands are printed as hexadecimal values and do not influence the printing result in any way.
  • Page 25 Basic TCP/IP Terminology Example If no subnetwork is used, the subnet mask of a class C network is set to '255.255.255.0'. If two subnetworks are used, the subnet mask may be set to '255.255.255.128,' for example. Valid IP addresses in this example are '192.168.0.1' to '192.168.0.127' in the first subnetwork and '192.168.0.129' to '192.168.0.254' in the second subnetwork.

    DHCP 1.3 DHCP The print server completely supports DHCP, according to RFC 1542, so that a simple and fast administration via DHCP is provided. Network Structure The dynamic administration of IP addresses via DHCP requires a Using DHCP system that administers the allocation of IP addresses to host names.
  • Page 27 DHCP What Happens During the installation of the print server, its host name is When Printing? displayed on the monitor of the computer intended for printing. In order for you to be able to assign the host name to the IP address, the computer asks the DNS server for the IP address of the print server.

  • Page 182: Basic Principles

    Network printers are integrated into BS2000 networks via a direct TCP/IP connection. Via TCP/IP ports, the print data can be transferred from the spooler to the KYOCERA-PrintServer. For this purpose, you must configure the port number. In the process, you also set up a port and enter the port number. With BS2000 systems, the TCP/IP port 2900 is used to implement a bidirectional socket connection.

    Saving the IP Address in the Print Server 7.2 Saving the IP Address in the Print Server With all KYOCERA printers with the exception of the FS-400, FS-600, FS-680, FS-1000, and some of the older models, you can enter the IP address directly into the printer operating panel and save it in the print server.

  • Page 190: Function Of Shell Scripts

    Function of Shell Scripts A.2 Function of Shell Scripts In UNIX networks, you can use shell scripts to print when remote printing via the LPD protocol and printing via direct TCP/IP ports are not possible. The *.sh shell scripts are sample scripts for the standard printer interfaces of the print spoolers supported by the print server: lpsched, lpd, and qdaemon.
  • Page 191 Function of Shell Scripts shell script comes to an end and informs the spooler of the correct completion of the print job via a return value of '0.' If the printer port is already occupied because another printer is currently printing, for example, the printer server sends the '552 No print slot available' message to the FTP server.
  • Page 192: Description Of Variables

    Description of Variables A.3 Description of Variables In this section, the variables of the shell scripts which must or can be changed are described. HOST Contains the host name or IP address of the print server, such as HOST=SB0001FF. PORTS Indicates the logical printer.
  • Page 193 Description of Variables a value greater than zero, another attempt will be made to send the data to the printer via FTP. After every attempt, the loop counter will be decremented and the waiting period will be doubled. This will be repeated until the data have been able to be printed or MAXR has reached a value of '0,' and the shell script has come to an end.
