3 - Getting Started
This chapter covers some background information to get you started using the RapidPrint 500.
Topics include methods used to initially set up the RapidPrint 500 as well as ongoing maintenance
issues, such as rebooting the server and restoring factory default settings
This chapter assumes the following:
• The RapidPrint 500 has booted properly and is running RapidPrint 500
operational code
• The RapidPrint 500 is connected to the Ethernet
• For IP network users, the RapidPrint 500 has been assigned a valid IP
address.
NOTE: See your Configuration Guide for details on booting, connecting your unit to the
Ethernet, and setting the IP address.
3.1 Configuration Methods
The RapidPrint 500 may be configured using one of two methods: the EZCon configuration soft-
ware, or commands issued at the command line (Local> prompt).
To configure the RapidPrint 500 when a problem has occurred, refer to the Troubleshooting appen-
dix of your Configuration Guide.
3.1.1 EZCon
The EZCon software is the easiest way to configure the unit. EZCon guides you through configu-
ration using a graphical interface.
UNIX, Macintosh, and Windows versions of EZCon are shipped with the RapidPrint 500 on CD-
ROM. To use the CD-ROM, refer to the instructions on the CD-ROM case. To install EZCon, refer
to the appropriate EZCon README file located on the CD-ROM.
NOTE: EZCon configurations take effect immediately, like Set commands, and are perma-
nent, like Define commands. See
Command Types for more information.
All instructions for using EZCon are included in each README file. For assistance once EZCon is
running, refer to the EZCon on-line help.
