1 Introducing the HP Jetdirect Print Server Introduction HP Jetdirect print servers allow you to connect printers and other devices directly to a network. By attaching directly to a network, devices can be conveniently located near users. In addition, a network connection allows data transfers to or from the device at network speeds. HP Jetdirect external print servers connect printers to the network by adapting the printer’s parallel port to a network port. Depending on the model, HP Je

HP Install Network Printer Wizard (Windows) The HP install Network Printer Wizard is a utility for printer discovery, setup and installation on a TCP/IP network. Once your printers have a network connection, the wizard installs the printer on your systems or servers that will send print jobs directly to the printer. This is called “direct-mode”, or “peer-to-peer” printing. If your system is a server, you can share the printer so that network clients can use the printer through the server,

HP Web Jetadmin HP Web Jetadmin allows you to use a Web browser to install, view, manage, and diagnose devices connected to an HP Jetdirect print server or any standard printer MIB devices. For information about a procedure or window in the HP Web Jetadmin software, see the online help. System Requirements HP Web Jetadmin software runs on Microsoft Windows 2000, XP Professional, and Server 2003, and selected Linux systems. For information on supported host operating systems, clients, and c

Internet Printer Connection Software HP Jetdirect print servers (firmware version x.07.16 or later) support the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP). Using the appropriate software on your system, you can create an IPP print path from your system to any HP Jetdirect-connected printer over the Internet. Note For incoming print path requests, the network administrator must configure the firewall to accept incoming IPP requests. Security features available in the software are currently limited.

(Example: http://169.254.227.113/ipp/port2) Then click Next. 5. You will be prompted for a printer driver (the HP Jetdirect print server does not contain printer drivers, so your system cannot automatically obtain the driver). Click OK to install the printer driver onto your system and follow the instructions on the screen. (You may need your printer CD-ROM to install the driver.) 6. To complete the print path setup, follow the instructions on the screen. Features Features and benefits pro

3 TCP/IP Configuration Introduction To operate properly on a TCP/IP network, the HP Jetdirect print server must be configured with valid TCP/IP network configuration parameters, such as an IP address. Depending on your printer and system, this can be done in the following ways: Note When shipped from the factory, the HP Jetdirect print server has no IP address. If the HP Jetdirect print server is not configured with a valid IP address within two minutes after power up, a factory default v

Note Linux and UNIX systems: For more information, see the bootpd man page. On HP-UX systems, a sample DHCP configuration file (dhcptab) may be loaded in the /etc directory. If your HP-UX system does not provide Dynamic Domain Name Services (DDNS) for its DHCP implementations, HP recommends that you set all print server lease durations to infinite. This ensures that print server IP addresses remain static until such time as Dynamic Domain Name Services are available. ● By a network-based

Using BOOTP/TFTP This section describes how to configure the print server using BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol) and TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) services on UNIX servers. BOOTP and TFTP are used to download network configuration data from a server to the HP Jetdirect print server over the network. Note On supported Windows server systems, use the Microsoft DHCP utilities to set up HP Jetdirect configuration via BOOTP. For more information, see “Using DHCP”. Note If the Jetdirect print

Systems That Use Network Information Service (NIS) If your system uses NIS, you may need to rebuild the NIS map with the BOOTP service before performing the BOOTP configuration steps. Refer to your system documentation. Configuring the BOOTP Server For the HP Jetdirect print server to obtain its configuration data over the network, the BOOTP/TFTP servers must be set up with the appropriate configuration files. BOOTP is used by the print server to obtain entries in the /etc/bootptab file on
