DP-300+ Multiprotocol Fast Ethernet Print Server User’s Guide  

Introduction 

 

Port Connectors 

The DP-300+’s three printer ports are located on its rear panel. 
Two identical parallel ports are labeled LPT1 and LPT2; the 
single serial port is labeled COM.  These printer ports are 
independently configurable using the 

PS Admin

 program or the 

print server’s 

telnet

 interface. (See the 

Print Server 

Administration User’s Guide

 for information about configuring 

the print server’s ports.) 

The print server also supports web configuration permitting 
users to configure settings through the web browser.  DP-300+ 
default IP address as follows: 

 

Default IP address – 192.168.0.10 

 

Subnet Mask – 255.255.255.0 

Note:-                                                                                             

The PC’s IP address must correspond with the print server’s IP 
address in the same segment for the two devices to 
communicate.
