Chapter 5 — Basic Operations (Fingerprint and IPL)
Confi guring the Printer
Having assigned an IP address to your EasyLAN, as described in
the installation instructions manual, you can change the EasyCoder
parameter settings using the File Transport Protocol (FTP).
You can do this by using your preferred text editor to create a simple text
fi le containing the desired Fingerprint or IPL commands. Th
e commands
are explained in detail in the programmer’s reference manuals for IPL
and Fingerprint.
After creating the fi le, you can send it to the printer by following the
steps below.
1 Start an FTP application connected to the printer:
ftp xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
2 Log on using your user account name and password.
3 Send the confi guration fi le to the printer. For example, type:
put confi guration.txt pr1
SNMP
You can use SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) for
remotely monitoring and confi guring the EasyLAN. All major
functions for print servers are supported. SNMP refers to a set of
standards for network management, including a protocol, a database
structure specifi cation, and a set of data objects. Th
e EasyLAN SNMP
implementation runs in the TCP/IP environment. Th e management
is handled by NMS (Network Management System) software running
on a host in your network. Th
e NMS software communicates with
network devices, such as the printer by the means of messages, which
are references to one or more objects. A message can be a question or
an instruction to a device, or an alarm triggered by a specifi c event in a
device. Objects are contained in databases called MIBs (Management
Information Bases), where MIB-II is a standard database. Th
e EasyLAN
supports all relevant parts of MIB-II and also includes Intermec MIBs.
For more information regarding SNMP, see Chapter 6, “Advanced
Confi guration.”
