The Network Interface Board functions as a SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) agent us- ing the UDP and IPX protocols. Using the SNMP manager, you can get information about the printer. The factory default community names are "public" and "admin". You can get MIB information using these community names.
Page 181: Spool Printing
Important Do not turn off the printer or the computer when a print job is being spooled and the Data In indicator is blinking. If you do, the print job will remain in the Printer Hard Disk and be printed when the printer is turned on.
Page 182: Setting Spool Printing
(In this example, the IP address of the machine is 192.168.0.10) Click “Admin Info”, and then “Spool Printing Job List (Printer)” to display the spool jobs. To delete, check the box next to the name of the file you want to delete. Enter the password [Delete].
Page 183: Remote Maintenance By Telnet
Remote Maintenance by telnet You can view the printer status and configure the Network Interface Board using telnet. Note You should specify a password so that only the network administrator, or a person having network administrator privileges, can use remote maintenance.
Page 184: Commands List
The Network Interface Board is reset automatically when the settings are changed. When the Network Interface Board is reset, the active print job which has already been sent to the printer will finish printing. However, jobs that have not been sent yet will be canceled. Commands List This is a list of commands that can be used via remote maintenance.

Page 187 - Address Subnet Mask A number used to mathematically “mask” or hide the IP address on the network by eliminating those parts of the address that are alike for all the machines on the network. Note To get the above addresses, contact your network administrator. The subnet mask is the same as that for the LAN interface and IEEE 802.11b interface.
Page 188 Note The access range restricts the workstations from which printing is possible by means of an ad- dress. If you do not need to restrict printing, make the setting “0.0.0.0”. The entry is invalid if the start address is greater than the end address. Up to five access ranges can be specified.

Page 203 The Ethernet interface and IEEE 802.11b interface will have the same printer name. SNTP The printer clock can be synchronized with a NTP server clock using the Simple Network Time Proto- col (SNTP). To change the SNTP settings, use the sntp command.
Page 204 The factory default setting is 3600 seconds. You can set the interval from 16 to 16384 seconds. If you set 0, the printer synchronizes with the NTP server only when you turn the printer on. After that, the printer does not synchronize with the NTP server.

Page 228: Precautions
Connecting a Dial Up Router to a Network When the NetWare file server and the printer are on the opposite side of a router, packets are continu- ously sent back and forth, possibly causing communication charges to increase. Because the packet transmission is a specification of NetWare, you need to change the configuration of the router.
Page 229 Configuring the printer with NetWare A A A A Follow the setup method in this manual, configure the file server. B B B B Set the Frame type for a NetWare environment. Reference For more information about selecting a Frame type, see using the Control Panel”.
Page 230: Postscript Printing From Windows
NetWare Printing Form Feed You should not configure the form feed on NetWare. The form feed is controlled by the printer driver on Windows. If the NetWare form feed is configured, the printer might not print properly. If you want to change the form feed setting, always configure it on Windows.
Page 231: Using Dhcp
Printing after resetting the printer After resetting the remote printer, it will be cut off from the print server for about 30-40 seconds before connecting again. Due to the NetWare specification, print jobs may be accepted, but they will not be printed during this interval.
Page 232 Supported DHCP server is Windows NT 4.0 Server Service Pack 4 or later, Windows 2000 Server and NetWare 5. If you do not use the WINS server, reserve the printer's IP address in the DHCP server so that the same IP address is assigned every time.
Page 233: Configuring A Wins Server
Configuring a WINS Server The printer can be configured to register its NetBIOS name with a WINS server when power is turned on. This enables the NetBIOS name of the printer to be specified from SmartNetMonitor for Admin even under a DHCP environment.
