6.5 Attaching a Network Printer
The oMG can support a network printer via an Ethernet port for use on its LAN.
Use the following steps to configure a network printer:
1.
Identify the Ethernet port number that the printer is attached to.
2.
Navigate to LAN > LAN Segments and ensure that the Ethernet port is
assigned to the Default LAN Segment. Also set the Enable DHCP Server field
depending on if the printer will use a static IP address or will obtain one
through DHCP from the oMG and click Save. See
on page 34 for information on configuring and assigning LAN segments.
3.
Configure the printer to use either a static IP address or to obtain an IP
address from the oMG using DHCP. Refer to your printer manual for more
information.
Note: If a static IP address is used, it must be within the subnet range defined by the IP
address and network mask in the Default LAN segment configuration. To avoid collisions
with DHCP clients, the static address should also be outside the specified DHCP address
range.
4.
Attach the network printer to the oMG and print the network status page to
verify that an IP address is correctly assigned. If the printer is using DHCP
and an IP address is not shown, verify that there is a connection light on the
printer indicating LAN activity, and that the printer is properly configured to
use DHCP. Refer to your printer manual for more information.
5.
Attach a PC to the oMG through either a WiFi connection or through an
Ethernet port. From a command prompt on the PC, verify that a ping to the
printer IP address is successful. If the ping is successful, use the PC's printer
utility software to add a local printer using a standard TCP/IP port. Use the
