NetWare Utilities Overview
This section provides information on the various NetWare utility programs that are available to you, with
emphasis on the Novell PCONSOLE utility that is used to perform all KN-302 print server functions.
As an alternative to using PCONSOLE, the procedure using the NWADMIN utility is provided for configur-
ing NetWare 4.0x (NDS).
PCONSOLE is an integral part of the Konica Network Management Utility. Separate procedures are provided
to show how to configure the KN-302 for the NetWare version you are using.
Before users of the Novell NetWare Network Operating System can print, the KN-302 print server must be
configured according to the instructions included in this section.
Highlights of this section are outlined below.
q How to Access the HTTP Server with an IP browser other than the MAP Utility.
q Konica Management Access Program (MAP) is a Windows based browser utility. The MAP utility
allows you to access the KN-302 and can be used to activate network protocols, configure the print server
and printer port, reset KN-302 from a remote location, and troubleshoot problems. Help screen information is
included to show you how to use the MAP Utility.
q Configure Using NetWare 2.15 and 3.1x describes how to use PCONSOLE to configure and set up KN-
302 printers for printing and to set up the Notify option.
q Configure Using NetWare 4.0x Directory Services (NDS) describes how to use the Konica Network
Management Utility as well as the NWADMIN utility to configure and set up the KN-302 print Server for
use with version 4.0x Directory Services.
q Configure Using NetWare 4.0x Bindery Emulation describes how to use PCONSOLE to configure and
set up the KN-302 Print Server for use with Version 4.0x Bindery Services.
q Primary File Server explains how to define a Primary File Server and gives you guidelines beforehand
about the effect it has on your network system.
3-2 NetWare Configuration

The following is a list of Novell NetWare utilities.
PCONSOLE
• Use PCONSOLE to set up the KN-302 print server and set the print queues. This utility helps you
control network printing and allows you to view information about network printing.
PRINTDEF
• Use to set up a database of printer definitions. Define device drivers for network printers, plotters,
and other devices. The information defined with the utility is then used by CAPTURE, NPRINT,
PCONSOLE, and PRINTCON.
PRINTCON
• Use to define the preferred print options and set the options up as standard configurations.
PRINTCON serves as a database for printing with CAPTURE, NPRINT, and PCONSOLE.
• The tasks include edit print job configurations, select default print job configurations, and copy
print job configurations from one user to another.
CAPTURE
• Use to print screen displays, save data to a network file, and print to a network printer from a non-
network software application.
NPRINT
• Use to print files from outside an application to a network printer. The files must be DOS text files,
or files that are formatted by the application for a specific printer type (for example, HP Laser).

How To Access The HTTP Server With An IP Browser

Use the following procedure to access the HTTP (HyperText Transfer Protocol) with your favorite IP
Browser, such as Netscape. This access allows you to perform all print server functions.
Option: If you have the MAP (Konica Management Access Program) Utility, use instructions on p. 3-7.
MAP gives you access to the Konica Network Management Utility, which allows you to perform all print
server functions.
If you do not have the MAP Utility, perform the following steps:
1. Assign an IP address to the KN-302.

See instructions for Assigning IP Address, starting on p. 5-5.
2. Start the IP Browser you normally use.
3. When the browser is up and running, type http:// followed by the IP address of the unit in the
Location field at the top of the browser screen, or by going to File at the menu bar and choosing
Open Location.
Example: For a unit with an IP address of 199.9.200.200, type:
http://199.9.200.200
At this point, the IP Browser works the same as the Konica MAP Utility
(see Network Setup screen on p. 3-8).

Using Konica Network Management Utility
Overview
The Konica Network Management Utility is a Windows based HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP) utility
that enables you to configure network protocols for the KN-302 print server; remotely reset the KN-302 print
server to clear an error or to return the print server to factory settings; troubleshoot problems; enable/
disable the status sheet printout; and access context-sensitive Help.
While the Konica Network Management Utility can be accessed with any browser, such as Netscape, you
can also use the MAP (Konica Management Access Program) Utility to access and configure the KN-302.
The MAP Utility automatically installs when you install the Konica Network Management Utility CD-ROM.
If you have not already done so, install the Konica Network Management Utility program using the installa-
tion procedure on p. 2-6.
NOTE: The Konica Network Management Utility CANNOT be installed from DOS.
Using MAP (Management Access Program)
The MAP utility consists of the MAP Setup program and the MAP program. (See sample screens on next
page.)
MAP Setup Program

The MAP Setup program allows you to configure the MAP program to search for IP or IPX based printers.
You may also configure the maximum number of hops for the IP searches. The hop count number determines
how many sub-networks the program will search to find the print server units. An entry of zero [0] on the
screen searches only the current subnet. An entry of [2] searches a wire that is directly connected to the
workstation and all networks accessible through two routers. An entry of 15 or higher automatically
searches every connected network; but such a high number is not recommended due to the amount of traffic
it would generate.
MAP Program
The MAP program lets you utilize the default browser for viewing and changing the Print Server configura-
tion settings. To do so, click on any active KN-302 Print Server unit (see next page).

After clicking on any one of the active KN-302 Print Server units listed in the MAP Program, the Network
Setup screen displays (see next page) to allow you to select any function related to the printer system. (See
APPENDIX A for a full description of the resident HTTP Server).
NOTE: Menus and function items are explained in Using The MAP Utility (see p. 3-9) .

Select the Network Setup button on the left of the Main Screen to display the Network Setup screen, which
allows the selection of functions related to the KN-302 Print Server.
The MAP Network Setup allows you to access the Konica program and use the functions relating to the
System, Protocols and Printer. Simply click on the menu item you require, and the easy-to-use screens will
guide you through each procedure.
The bottom of your screen displays Home and Unit Info. Clicking on Home gets you back to the basic menu.
Clicking on Unit Info displays the current Ethernet option associated with this Printer Server.
To learn more about using the MAP Utility, see Using the MAP Utility which begins on the next page.
To configure the KN-302 Print Server for use with NetWare, see Configure KN-302 for Use With Novell
NetWare p. 3-21.
NOTE: You will be required to enter a password to perform most of the functions.

System Functions
System Functions allow you to reset the unit when an error condition occurs; reset the unit to download a
new version of the print server software; return the unit to its factory defaults before configuring; check the
unit status on Novell NetWare, TCP/IP, or AppleTalk protocols; update the Ethernet network; change the
password assigned to the unit.
Reset
Two functions are available: Reset Unit lets you reset the print server to clear an error condition that is
preventing you from printing. Reset simply recycles the unit and leaves all current print server settings
intact. Typical error conditions that would require resetting the unit include the situation where the printer
port does not accept data for a print job, or the printer is printing codes instead of the desired text. When
you reset the unit, you may need to recycle the printer power Off, then On again to correct the problem.
Reset the Unit for Download lets you reset the print server in to download mode to enable you to update the
unit's flash read-only memory (ROM) with a new or updated software release. A software release normally
includes new features or fixes for the print server.
Factory Defaults
This function resets the print server to the factory default settings that came with the unit. This feature is
useful in the event you are moving the print server to a new location, or if the unit was set up improperly
and you need to start over again. Remember that this option clears any settings already defined for the print
server.
Unit Status
The Unit Status screen displays the current state for each protocol and print server port available on your
print server model. For each supported protocol (Novell NetWare, TCP/IP, AppleTalk), the top line displays
the protocols supported and indicates whether the protocol is currently enabled or disabled.

System Functions
Unit Status
Novell NetWare
For Novell NetWare, the file server status for each print server post is displayed as explained in the follow-
ing field descriptions:
File Server: The name of the file server(s) to which the print server is connected.
File Server Status: These status messages inform you of whether the server is connected or disconnected to
the print server. It also lets you know when the server is shutting down its connection to the print server.
Queue Name: The queue name assigned to the print server printer port.
Queue Status: This field displays the status of the queues servicing the print server printers. If there is a
problem printing, e.g., the queue is not available, the problem will be listed here.

Default Gateway Address (if needed): This address is used if the routers on your network have a default
gateway address that needs to be listed for accessing the print server printers.
Base Port Number: The base number assigned to the print server port. For example, port [1] would be 100001.
DHCP: DHCP displays on the screen whether the function is On or Off. When DHCP is On, the KN-
302automatically obtains the IP address from the DHCP Server.
IP Address in NVRAM: This displays on the screen whether or not the IP Address is to be retained between
power cycles.
Banner: This displays whether the banner page option is turned On or Off.
The LPD settings are displayed for each print server port. This information includes the type of print jobs
supported for each print server printer. For example, if PCL and PS are displayed, this means that the printer
supports PCL and PS compatible print jobs.
AppleTalk
The print server unit name and the AppleTalk zone in which the print server resides are displayed. The name
will either be the default name KN3_(serial_number) or a user-defined name. The Port Status has a default
assigned printer name of Unit # (serial_number) 1. You cannot print to any printer with a disabled port
status.

System Functions
Network Address
Important: This field is for display only.
The network address screen displays the print server unit serial number and the Ethernet address for the

Configure KN-302 For Use With Novell NetWare
Overview
Basically, the configuration function tells the Print Server which printers it is supporting. Configuration
procedures are performed using the PCONSOLE utility. To use the PCONSOLE utility, you must have
supervisor privileges.
Make sure your PCONSOLE version is not version 1.0, as the KN-302 cannot be configured with version 1.0.
Contact Novell if you need to upgrade your version of PCONSOLE.
• To configure the KN-302 for use with NetWare 4.x NetWare Directory Services, see p. 3-36.
• To configure the KN-302 for use with NetWare 4.x Bindery Emulation, see p. 3-49.
• To configure the KN-302 for use with NetWare 2.15 and 3.1x, see procedure starting on the next
page. Configuration on NetWare 2.15 or 3.1x requires the following basic steps:
1. Login to the network as Supervisor.
2. Start PCONSOLE.
3. Create a Print Queue to be serviced by the KN-302 (see next page).

This step may be skipped if you intend to use an already existing queue.
4. Create a new print server and enter the KN-302 print server name.
5. Configure the KN-302 print server.
6. Assign print queues to the KN-302 printer.
7. Set up the NOTIFY options for the KN-302 printer (optional).
Repeat the procedure for other file servers. When you are finished, turn the printer off and on
again. The printer creates a status report that indicates the file servers to which the unit is attached
and the queues which it services.
See the detailed procedure starting on the next page.

Configure Using NetWare 4.x NetWare Directory Services
Overview
NetWare Directory Services (NDS) offers a different, more advanced approach to network management than
previous NetWare versions. Generally, it stores and tracks all network objects.
As a rule, all 4.x servers must have NDS loaded in order to function. In this way, every NetWare 4.x server is
a Directory server, because it services named Directory objects, such as printers, print servers and print
queues.
With the appropriate privileges, you can create a print server object, which, once configured in its context
(or location) on the network, eliminates the cumbersome setup of print servers on every network server.
NDS provides true enterprise networking based on a shared network database rather than on individually
defined physical sites. The result is greatly improved print server setup and management.
NetWare 4.x also provides backward compatibility for 2.x, 3.x and 4.x print service in Bindery emulation.
The Directory Information Base (DIB) is used to store information about servers and services, users,
printers, gateways, etc., and is a distributed database, allowing access to data anywhere on the network
wherever it is stored.
NetWare versions prior to 4.x provide the same data found in the DIB but the data is stored in the NetWare
Bindery. DIB was designed with more flexible access, more specific security, and, since it is distributed, it
was designed to be partitioned.
The Directory uses an object-oriented structure rather than the flat-file structure of the Bindery, and offers
network-oriented access, rather than server-oriented access found in the Bindery.
The Directory is backward-compatible with the NetWare Bindery through Bindery emulation mode. When
Bindery emulation is enabled, Directory Services will accept Bindery requests and respond just as if a
Bindery existed on the NetWare server being accessed.

Overview (continued)
Information obtained from the Bindery query may not be stored in the server, since the Directory is a
partitioned and distributed database. Even though the NetWare 4.x server is not operating from a Bindery,
the applications making Bindery requests will not know the difference.
The Konica Network Management Utility program provided with the KN-302 is used to configure the
context of the KN-302 Print Server.
Novell NWADMIN
The Novell NWADMIN (NetWare Administration) program is used to create the directory tree, print server,
printer and print queue objects within the tree. See procedure on p. 3-43.
Snap-in support for the NetWare administrator (NWADMIN) utility is provided for the print server. This
offers a single point of control for Administrators for NetWare Directory Services (NDS).
NWADMIN lets administrators manage the print server from a central location.

The NetWare Configuration Menu shown above is for your reference while configuring NetWare Directory
Services. The procedure starts on the next page.


Follow the steps below to complete the configuration procedure using the Konica Network Management
Utility:
1. If you have not already done so, install the Konica Network Management Utility on your system (see
Installing the Konica Network Management Utility, p. 2-6). Make sure the Konica Printing system is
powered up and connected to the network.
2. Start the Konica MAP utility at a Windows workstation.

The “WELCOME” screen displays (see p. 3-35).
3. Select the KN-302 device you want to configure.
The displayed KN-302 device names are KN3_<serial Number>.
NOTE: The serial number is the 6-digit number located on the label attached to the KN-302 circuit board.
To display detailed information about the individual KN-302 device(s), select “Options” from the Network
Setup menu and then select “Show All”).
The selected KN-302 unit’s Network Setup menu appears. See p. 3-36.
4. Under the “Protocols” section of the Network Setup menu, click on “Setup NetWare.” The NetWare
Configuration Menu displays.
Refer to the menu screen illustration shown on the previous page, as you follow the steps shown below.
5. Make sure that the “Enable Netware” checkbox is checked. X

6. To change the default Novell Print Server name from “KN3_<serial number> to a more descriptive name,
edit the “Print Server Name” field. This name must match the Novell Print Server Object Name you will define
when creating the object with NWADMIN or PCONSOLE.
7. Leave “Print Server Password” and “Password Retype” fields blank, unless you plan to assign a pass-
word to the Novell Print Server. The password entered here must match the password you define when
creating the print server object in NWADMIN or PCONSOLE.

8. In the “Preferred File Server:” field, enter the name of the Preferred File Server that you want the KN-302
Print Server to attach to first. This operation, in conjunction with listing all the file servers to be serviced on
this preferred file server, lets you connect directly to the file servers of choice rather than having the KN-302
search for all file servers it is to service (which may take a long time).
9. In the “Preferred NDS Context:” field, enter the preferred NDS context. The Preferred NDS Context refers
only to the context name, whether typed or non-typed. Do not begin the context path with a trailing period
(.). You do not need to write a container name (KN-302 Print Server Name) because it was provided in the
field above. See example below:
ou=standard.o=organization_1 (KONICA)
10. In the “Preferred NDS Tree” field, enter the preferred NDS tree name. If you don’t know what the tree
name is, type WHOAMI at the DOS prompt.
11. The “Print Queue Scan Rate” lets you select how often the KN-302 polls the Novell Netware queues to
see if any new print jobs need to be serviced. The default is one (1) second. Enter in the “Print Queue Scan
Rate” field a value between 1 and 255 seconds.
12. Select the “Ethernet Frame Type:” you want the KN-302 to use. If you select Auto-Sense, the correct
frame type is automatically selected.
13. Click on the “Disable Bindery:” checkbox if you want to disable Bindery Services. Bindery services is
disabled if the checkbox is marked. When you disable Bindery Services, the KN-302 will not support any of
the print servers on any Bindery file servers.
14. After completing the above steps, enter the password in the password field, using lowercase letters, then
click on “Accept Settings" to store the new configuration settings in the KN-302’s nonvolatile memory.
NOTE: The default password is “sysadm.”
These changes will not take effect until you power down the Konica Printing System, and then power it back
on.

Using the NWADMIN Utility

See the steps below to complete the NWADMIN configuration. You will create printer, print server and print
queue objects; and assign, or associate, those objects with each other. You can keep Bindery resources on
any server under NetWare 4.x by declaring a SET statement in your AUTOEXEC.NCF file.
As an alternative to NWADMIN, NetWare offers PCONSOLE for those who prefer it. PCONSOLE can be
used to set up static information about print servers such as, which queues to service, and whom to notify
in the event of a problem. See Novell NetWare documentation for more information about the use of
PCONSOLE for NDS.

Configure Using NetWare 4.x Bindery Emulation
Overview
Novell’s NetWare 4.0x can operate in the Bindery Services Emulation mode and NetWare Directory Services
(NDS) mode (see NetWare Directory Services to configure the print server in this mode).
While Bindery Emulation services and NDS services run simultaneously and transparently to each other, the
print server may be configured to operate with Bindery Services mode only, as described in this section; or
with NDS only. When configured under NDS, the print server will also service older file servers operating in
bindery mode.
NOTE: If the Bindery Services mode is not running, the print server will be unable to find its file servers, and the status page
will indicate that the Novell NetWare protocol is not active.
Before installing the print server on a Novell NetWare 4.x server in Bindery Emulation mode, first check to be
sure the server has Bindery Context by using the Confirming Bindery Context procedure on the next page.
If the server does not have Bindery Context, the Novell administrator must execute either a SET command
from the console prompt, or, modify the AUTOEXEC.NCF file to include the proper SET command and
restart the server.
NOTE: The command entered from the console prompt takes effect immediately, whereas, the definition in the autoexec
file takes effect only when the server is shut down and then restarted.

Using PCONSOLE
Confirming Bindery Context
Perform the following steps to determine if the server has Bindery Context:
1. Login to the server as ADMIN.
2. At the prompt, perform a DOS TYPE of Z:\SYSTEM\AUTOEXEC.NCF.
3. When the file displays, look to see if you have a statement similar to
SET BINDERY CONTEXT=O=<Name>
Where =O=<Name> is a sample name for the file server context.

Use your own file server context in place of =O=<Name>.
<Name> is the designation for the Server Context, and is obtained by starting PCONSOLE. The Server
Context name is displayed in the upper left corner of the Available Options menu screen.
4. If no such name statement in on the screen, you must add that statement to enable the KN-302 to work. In
that case, exit from PCONSOLE and use a DOS text editor to add the following statement to the
AUTOEXEC.NCF file:
SET BINDERY CONTEXT =O=KONICA_CORP
5. After adding the statement to the AUTOEXEC.NCF file, you must power down the server and restart it for
the changes to take effect.
Or, as an alternative method, the network administrator can type the SET command at the Server console
to make changes immediately. In this case, any changes will be in effect until the server is powered down
and restarted again.
Important: The command at the console prompt takes effect immediately, whereas, the definition in the
autoexec file takes effect only when the server is shut down and then restarted.

Using PCONSOLE
Once you confirm the server has Bindery Context, you can configure the KN-302 using the PCONSOLE
procedure shown below. Use the function keys located at the bottom of the screen to configure the KN-302.
Configuring NetWare 4.0x Bindery Emulation requires the following steps:
1. Start PCONSOLE.
2. Select Bindery Mode.
3. Select Quick Setup option.
4. Enter the print server, printer, and queue names.
5. Enter the printer TYPE name.
6. Add to the print server and queue lists.

the Konica Digital Lab at 1 (800) 825-5664.

Using PCONSOLE
Supporting Multiple File Servers
See Appendix section for information on supporting multiple file servers. This includes information on
passwords for multiple file servers assigned to the KN-302 print server.
Status Page
The status page is formatted for PostScript printers and prints after self-tests and after power up of the KN-
302 print server. For text-based printers such as HP LaserJet, the status page prints the information shown
on the sample on the next page, as well as any PostScript codes. If after the self-tests, the KN-302 unit
cannot log into the file server or find a password, the status page prints details of the problem and the
solution.
Use the status page to check if the protocols you are using are defined for each KN-302 printer port. If a
protocol is not defined, first make sure the protocol is enabled. Protocols are enabled and disabled in the
Konica Network Management Utility.

Primary File Server
When To Define A Primary File Server
The procedure for defining a primary file server starts on the next page. A primary file server should be
defined only if you have a very large network tied into many different sites with several file servers. This
procedure is performed with the PCONSOLE utility in the File Servers To Be Serviced option, details of
which start on the next page.
If you do not wish to define a primary file server, go directly to the PCONSOLE configuration procedure for
your particular NetWare version.
The following information describes the effect on your system when a primary file server is defined and not
defined.
When a primary file server is defined -
• File servers require no more than a 1/4 second propagation delay.
• Minimum of two file servers can be placed on the file server list.
• The KN-302 searches for the primary server, starting with the servers that are closest (0 hops), and
works its way outward to amaximum of four hops.
When the KN-302 finds a primary file server, the print server -
• Stops searching for other servers.
• Reads the list of servers in NetWare’s PCONSOLE
• Attempts to attach to every server on the list, wherever located.
When a primary file server is not defined -
• File servers require no more that a 1/4 second propagation delay
• The KN-302 has a maximum limit of 16 file servers
• The KN-302 searches for file servers that are four hops or less away. The four hops that KN-302
searches are the four LAN segments directly connected to the first workstation or server.
NOTES:
1. The propagation delay is the time it takes for a packet of data to go from the file
server to the KN-302 unit.
2. A hop is a step in the data transmission from one node (a workstation or server)
through an intermediate node.

Primary File Server

How To Access The HTTP Server With An IP Browser
Access to the HTTP Server allows you to perform all print server functions.
Use the following procedure to access HTTP (HyperText Transfer Protocol) with your favorite IP Browser,
such as Netscape or Microsoft Internet Explorer.
1. Assign an IP address to the KN-302.

(See TCP/IP Users on the previous page.
2. Start the IP Browser you normally use.
When the Browser is up and running, type http:// followed by the IP address of the unit in the Location
field at the top of the Browser screen, or by going to File at the menu bar and choosing Open Location.

Section 5: UNIX Printing Through TCP/IP
UNIX Printing Through TCP/IP
Overview
The following pages explain how to configure the Konica Print Server and your network for use with TCP/
IP communication in various environments.
Independent setup and installation procedures are provided for Windows systems and for most popular
UNIX systems.
The Konica Print Server TCP/IP capability will also operate with lpr spoolers on other systems, and with
spooler/supervisor capabilities that communicate raw print jobs to the Print Server TCP/IP Port.
This port number defaults to 10001, but may be changed to any desired number using the Konica Network
Management Utility.
You can use Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for delivering IP addresses to hosts through an IP
network.
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a protocol for network management services.
SNMP is supported for Management Information Base (MIB) II over IP for the print servers. This support
allows you to query MIB II to get system information about the print server.
Installation in a Windows Environment
Several versions and variations of Microsoft Windows may be used on NetWare and/or TCP/IP networks,
as well as on native Microsoft Windows network. This flexibility allows various options for setting up the
network printing system even though this Konica Print Server does not support Netbeui.
• If the Windows workstations are connected to a NetWare network, configure the printer interfaces for
NetWare, and use standard Windows/NetWare utilities to provide access to the printer.
• If NetWare is not to be used, the users may access the printer using TCP/IP. This section describes
installation under Windows for Workgroups, Windows 95, and Windows NT.
5-2 UNIX Printing Through TCP/IP

Windows for Workgroups
UNIX Printing with TCP/IP requires that the workstation have TCP/IP capability; or that the workstation
can share an lpr queue on a Windows NT server (for example) that has one. In general, if printers are not
shared, an lpr queue must be created on each workstation from which printing is initiated. See Windows
documentation about sharing printers.
Windows for Workgroups does not normally come with TCP/IP. However, various TCP/IP facilities are
available for Windows for Workgroups workstations, including a free TCP/ IP stack provided by Microsoft.
Third party lpr spoolers are available.
The following instructions are based on the Microsoft TCP/IP stack and a shareware lpr application that is
available from various sources, including the Konica Print Server manufacturer.
• You will need files WFWTCP32.zip and WFWTCP32.txt for TCP/IP, and files WLPRS41.zip and
wlprspl.txt for lpr.
• You will need the BOOTPL.exe file if you wish to use the BOOTP Lite program to set up IP parameters.
The BOOTPL.exe file is located on the Konica Network Management Utility CDROM.
• WFWTCP32.zip, WLPRS41.zip, and BOOTPL.exe are both available for downloading from the Konica
WEB server located at: http://www.kbm.com.
UNIX Printing Through TCP/IP 5-3

Installing TCP/IP
To set up TCP/IP on the workstations, follow the instructions in the text file for the TCP/IP stack. These
instructions are part of the self-exploding files that you downloaded from the Web site. They are the
copyright of Microsoft and cannot be included here.
Loading the lpr Spooler
The Windows lpr Spooler Version 4.1 (wlprspl.txt), provides detailed instructions for decompressing and
installing the shareware lpr spooler.
Setting Up The Konica Print Server
The Konica Print Server must be given an IP address and routing information before being used with TCP/
IP.
This can be accomplished with Konica Printer Management for Windows if you have a NetWare connection
on your network, or with Apple Administration Program for Macintosh if there is an Apple Macintosh on
the network.
Follow the instructions for these programs provided in Section 3 or Section 4 (see Note).
NOTE: If you cannot use these programs, you can use either the BOOTP Lite program described on p. 5-5 or the ARP procedure
described on p. 5- 6.
Procedure prior to running these programs:
1. Install the Konica Print Server in your printer.
2. Power -up the printer.
3. Keep the status sheet handy for the Ethernet (MAC) address.
It should show that TCP/IP is enabled, but that the Protocol address is not configured.
NOTE: If the unit already has an IP address, the IP Address procedures on the following pages will not be required.

Assigning IP Address with BOOTP Lite
This procedure uses the BOOTP protocol. The Konica Print Server must be on the same network segment
as the workstation that you are using to configure it. The TCP/IP stack must be installed and operating.
The BOOTPL.exe program works with a 16 Bit TCP/IP Stack (FTP, NetManage, B&W, or WFWG).
1. Reset the print server.
NOTE: The BOOTP request is for a finite period of time. The print server must be freshly reset for this to work.
2. From Program Manager under File, select Run \windows\ BOOTPL.exe.
3. Pull down the Admin menu to Configure option.
4. Enter the IP address (you want to assign to the Konica Print Server);
the Subnet Mask ( matching what you are using on your subnet); the Default Gateway (your router's IP
address); the MAC address of the Konica Print Server (Hardware Address, listed on the Status sheet as
Ethernet Address). Use colons as delimiters as shown on the status sheet rather than the dashes that Win-
dows uses.
5. Click on Go. You will get a message that the program is Verifying, and then it will tell you whether the
unit is active or not.
6. Wait for about five minutes for the Konica Print Server to reset. The Status sheet should report the
newly entered IP information.
7. Enter the MS/DOS box. At the command prompt enter:
ping [IP address of Konica Print Server]
Continue until you get a reply. If you get no response, verify that TCP/IP is enabled on the status sheet. If
the IP information is not displayed on the sheet, then repeat the above procedure.

Assigning IP Address with ARP
Use the following procedure to use ARP to configure the IP address.
1. From Windows, enter the MS/DOS box.
2. At the command prompt enter:
(a) ping [any valid IP address on your network - not the print server].
The identified unit should reply. If you do not ping the network, the
arp cache will be empty (no static entries), and you will receive an
error 2 message (after performing the next step).
(b) arp -s [IP address of Konica Print Server]

[MAC Address of Konica Print Server]
The entry should be accepted. You will receive an error 3 message
if Konica's Remote Access Software (RAS) is installed.
(c) ping [IP address of Konica Print Server].

The request should time out.
3. Recycle the power on the print server. The Konica Print Server will produce a status page that should
include the entered IP address.
4. When the Konica Print Server is up again, type the following at the command prompt:
(a) ping [IP address of Konica Print Server]

Continue until you get a reply.
NOTE: This only enters the IP address. You must use the Konica Network Management Utility to enter the other IP parameters.

Creating an lpr Queue on the Workstation
Once you install the spooler onto the workstation, the setup program will create a group and icon.
1. Double click on the spooler icon.
2. Click on setup, and define a new queue.
3. At the Remote Host Name prompt, enter the Konica Print Server IP Address, and enter PORT1 for the
Remote Printer Name.
4. Go to Control Panel, Printers, and choose Connect.
5. Select your driver and click on Next.

At this point, you should see an entry for your Windows lpr Spooler's printer in the “Available ports”
listing. For example:
C:\SPOOL\PRINTER_NAME.

Microsoft Windows 95
Windows 95 comes with a TCP/IP stack. To print with this protocol, a client also requires an lpr utility.
This program is available from various sources. The lpr queue can be created on each workstation or the lpr
queue can be created on one workstation and shared on the network. Windows 95 workstations can also
share a lpr printer installed on an Windows NT server on the network.
The following instructions are based on a shareware lpr application that is available from various sources,
including the Konica Print Server manufacturer. You will need the wlprs41.zip and wlprspl.txt for the lpr.
If you wish to use the BOOTP Lite program, you will also need the ntBOOTP.exe file. The ntBOOTP.exe
files provided on the Konica Network Management Utility CDROM. ntBOOTP.exe and WLPRS41.zip are
also available for downloading from the Konica WEB server located at http://www.kbm.com.
Loading the lpr Spooler
The Windows lpr Spooler Version 4.1 (wlprspl.txt), provides detailed instructions for decompressing and
installing the shareware lpr spooler.
Setting up the Konica Print Server
The Konica Print Server must be given an IP address and routing information to be used with TCP/IP. This
can be done with Konica Network Management Utility for Windows if you have a NetWare connection on
your network, or with Apple Administration Program for Macintosh if there is an Apple Macintosh on the
network. Instructions for these programs are in Section 3 or Section 4. If you cannot use these programs,
you can use either thentBOOTP program or the ARP procedure.
2. Power up the printer.
Keep the status sheet handy for the Ethernet (MAC) address. It should show that TCP/IP is enabled but that
the Protocol address is not configured. If the unit already has an IP address, these procedures will not work.
Use the ntBOOTP Program or any standard Internet Web Browser to change the IP parameters.

Assigning IP Address with ntBOOTP
as the workstation that you are using to configure it, and the TCP/IP stack must be installed and operating.
Use ntBootp instead of ARP to configure the IP address.
You may provide the IP address and other IP parameters to the Konica Print Server on 32 Bit TCP/IP Stack
(Windows NT & Windows 95) using the ntBOOTP.exe program. You must store the file in the Windows
directory.
2. From Program Manager under File, select Run ntBOOTP.exe.
4. Enter the IP address that you want to assign to the Konica Print Server, its Subnet Mask (make sure it
matches what you are using on your subnet), Default Gateway (your router's IP address), and the MAC
address of the Konica Print Server (Hardware Address, listed on the Status sheet as Ethernet Address). Use
colons as delimiters as shown on the status sheet rather than the dashes Windows uses.
5. Click on Go.
6. Wait about five minutes. The Konica Print Server should recycle and produce a status sheet showing the
IP parameters you have just entered.
7. Pull down the Admin menu to Verify. You should get a message back stating that the Unit is Active. If you
do not get this message, verify that TCP/IP is enabled on the status sheet.
8. When you get a response that your unit is active, you should be able to ping the Konica Print Server.

Assigning IP Address With ARP

1. From Windows, enter the MS/DOS box. At the command prompt enter:
(a) ping [any valid IP address on your network - not the print server].
The identified unit should reply.
(b) arp -s [IP address of Konica Print Server] and [MAC Address].
The entry should be accepted.
(c) ping [IP address of the Konica Print Server].
Request should time out.
2. Recycle the power on the printer, or let the Konica Print Server reset itself. The Konica Print Server will
produce a status page that should include the entered IP address.
3. When the Konica Print Server is up again, at the command prompt, enter:
NOTE: This only enters the IP address. Use the ntBOOTP Program or any standard Internet Web Browser to change the IP
parameters.
Setting up lpr on the Workstation
Once the spooler is installed on the workstation, the setup program will create a group and icon.
1. Double click on the spooler icon.

2. Click on setup, and define a new queue.
3. For Remote Host Name, enter the IP Address; for Remote Printer Name, enter PORT1. You should be
able to print via the spooler.
4. Go to Settings.
5. Select Printers.
6. Choose Add Printer.
7. Click on Next.
8. Select your driver, and click on Next.
At this point, you should see an entry for your Windows lpr Spooler's printer in the “Available ports” listing
displayed as, for example:
C:\SPOOL\PRINTER_NAME

Windows NT Instructions
Windows NT (version 3.5 or higher) comes with TCP/IP and lpr capabilities, although these must be
installed when the unit is configured. You must install the TCP/IP Protocol, Simple TCP/IP Services, and
Microsoft TCP/IP UNIX Printing prior to entering the network printer on the workstation.
NOTE: Once you have lpr installed on a Windows NT Server workstation and have allowed printer sharing,
other workstations may use the printer through the Microsoft Windows Network without having to have
separate lpr queues installed on each workstation.
Setting Up the Konica Print Server
The Konica Print Server must be given an IP address and routing information before being used with TCP/
IP.
This can be done with Konica Network Management Utility for Windows if you have a NetWare connection
on your network, or with Apple Administration Program for Macintosh if there is an Apple Macintosh on
the network.
If you cannot use these programs, you can use either the ntBOOTP program or the ARP procedure. To use
ntBOOTP, you will need the ntBOOTP.exe file. This file is on the Konica Network Management Utility for
Windows CDROM supplied with the Konica Print Server, and can be downloaded from Konica's WEB
Server located at the following address:
http://www.konicabt.com
2. Power up the printer.
NOTE: Keep the status sheet handy for the Ethernet (MAC) address. It should show that TCP/IP is enabled but that the Protocol
address is not configured. If the unit already has an IP address, these procedures will not work. Use the ntBOOTP Program or any
standard Internet Web Browser to change the IP parameters.

Assigning IP Address with ntBOOTP
as the workstation that you are using to configure it, and the TCP/IP stack must be installed and operating.
You may provide the IP address and other IP parameters to the printer's Konica Print Server on 32-Bit
TCP/IP Stack (Windows NT & Windows 95) using the ntBOOTP.exe program. You will have to store the
file in the Windows directory. You can use ntBOOTP Lite to configure the IP address instead of ARP.
2. From Windows Program Manager under File, select Run ntBOOTP.exe.
4. Enter the IP address that you want to assign to the Konica Print Server; its Subnet Mask (make sure it
matches what you are using on your subnet); Default Gateway (your router's IP address); and the MAC
address of the Konica Print Server (Hardware Address, listed on the Status sheet as Ethernet Address). Use
colons as delimiters as shown on the status sheet rather than the dashes Windows uses.
5. Click on Go.
6. Wait about five minutes. The Konica Print Server should recycle and produce a status sheet showing the
IP parameters you have just entered.
7. Pull down Admin menu to Verify. You should get a message back stating that the Unit is Active. If you do
not get this message, check that TCP/IP is enabled on the status sheet
8. When you get a response that your unit is active, you should be able to ping the Konica Print Server.

Assigning IP Address With ARP

1. From Windows, enter the MS/DOS box. At the command prompt enter:
ping [any valid IP address on your network - not the print server]
The identified unit should reply.
NOTE: You need to ping something on your network prior to using the arp -s command. Windows NT will not allow you to add
an entry to an empty arp cache.
arp -s [IP address of the Konica Print Server] [MAC Address of

the Konica Print Server]. The entry should be accepted.
ping [IP address of the Konica Print Server].

Request should time out.
2. Recycle the power on the printer or let the Konica Print Server reset itself. The Konica Print Server will
produce a status page that should include the entered IP address.
3. When the Konica Print Server is up again, at the command prompt, enter:

NOTE: This only enters the IP address. Use the ntBOOTP Program or any standard Internet Web Browser to change the IP
parameters.

Setting Up lpr on the Workstation
Use this procedure to set up the lpr spooler on the Windows NT server.
1. Open Control Panel.
2. Go to Printers.
3. Choose Printer Menu.
4. Choose Create Printer.
5. Enter a printer name (For example, lprprinter).
6. Select the proper printer driver.
7. Enter a description. This is optional.
8. In the Print To dialog, choose Other.
9. In Print Destinations window, select lpr port.
10. When the add lpr compatible printer window is displayed, enter:
IP address [Line 1: Address of host providing lpd (Print server)]

PORT1 [Line 2: Name of printer] (the word PORT must be in uppercase format followed directly
by the number 1).
11. Choose OK to exit.
Your Konica Print Server is now configured to operate Windows NT.

You may print from any application by following the normal print instructions for that application.

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) provides a mechanism for delivering IP addresses to hosts
through an IP network, and, for the delivery of other configuration parameters, such as a subnet mask or
gateway address.
Important: When configuring a DHCP server, you need to establish a permanent lease or reservation for the
print server. Failure to do this may cause the same address to be given out to another host.
On power-up of the print server, a DHCP request is broadcast. Based on the tables established on the DHCP
server, the reserved IP address information will be returned, the print server will automatically be reset and
restarted using the reserved address information.
FTP UNIX Printing
FTP printing allows users several ways to print files through the internet directly from their favorite IP
browser or other FTP client.
To print from Netscape (only Netscape 2.0 or greater), use the following procedure:
1. Type: ftp://port1@<destination server IP address>
2. Select File.
3. Select Upload File.
NOTE: FTP printing does not support selecting multiple file names.
The selected file is now sent to the printer.

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
FTP UNIX Printing
ASCII to PostScript (A2PS) Method
If you wish to send text-based files to the PostScript printer on your print server, connect to that port. For
example, to print to A2PSx (ascii to postscript) on your print server from Netscape 2.0 (or greater):
1. Type: ftp://a2ps1@<destination server IP address>
2. Select File.
3. Select Upload File.

Drag and Drop Method
From Netscape 2.0 (or greater), use the drag and drop method of printing a file on your print server, as
follows:
1. Type: ftp://port1@<destination server IP address>
2. Click and hold on the file that is on your system and drag it to your IP browser's window.
3. Click on OK to upload the file.

NOTES:
1. FTP printing does not support selecting multiple file names.
2. Only one person can be logged on to a port at any particular time.
FTP Client
To print from a FTP Client, perform the following procedure:
1. Type: ftp <destination server ID>

2. Type: port1 (login using username of PORT1)
3. Type: put <filename>

Printing Overview
The Konica Print Server can support UNIX TCP/IP printing in two modes:
• Host-based where a supplied line printer daemon is run on one or more workstations and print data
is communicated to the Konica Print Server via a TCP/IP port
or
• Printer-based lpd where the printer appears as a host running a line printer daemon.
Many operating systems provide the option of using host-resident printing or print server-resident printing.
In general, printer-based lpd is easier to use on BSD UNIX systems. This requires an entry in the printcap
file once the Konica Print Server has its IP information. Some UNIX System V systems have restrictions on
support of remote lpd printers, requiring that the host-based lpd approach be used.
Each printing mode has certain advantages over the other mode, as follows:
• The host-resident method can print the username and filename on its banner page; whereas the
print server-resident method prints a banner page with the host’s name.
• The print server-resident method requires you to configure the printer only one time, when you
install the print server.; whereas, the host-resident method requires that a printing daemon be
installed on every host that you want to be able to print jobs.
NOTE: The Konica Print Server will also operate with other host-resident print supervisor/spooler programs that present a print
image to the printer over a TCP/IP port.

Printing Overview
Considering both the host-based and printer-based TCP/IP printing capabilities, the Konica Print Server
works with the following systems:
• All UNIX systems that support lpd
• System V Rel. 4 (on 386 platforms)
• DEC ULTRIX RISC Versions 4.3 and 4.4
• DEC OSF/1 Versions 2.0 and 3.0
• Solaris:
Version 1.1.3 (SunOS 4.1.3),
Version 2.3 (SunOS 5.3),
Version 2.4, and
Version 2.5
• HP-UX Series 700 and 800 Version 9.01 and Version 10.0
• IBM AIX Version 3.2.5 and Version 4.0
• SCO UNIX Version 3.2
• AS400
The TCP/IP CDROM also includes source code so that you can recompose host-based code for configuring
on other System V platforms.

Configuring the IP Address on the KN-302 Print Server
Regardless of the printing mode selected, the Konica Print Server must be given IP address and routing
parameters. You can configure the IP address for the Konica Print Server in one of the following ways:
• Use Konica Network Management Utility for Windows.

• Use Apple Administration Program for Macintosh.
• Use the Internet Boot Protocol (BOOTP).
• Use reverse ARP (rarp) capability (Ethernet II frame type only).
• Use arp and ping capability.
Depending on the topology, you need to provide the MAC address of the Konica Print Server.
The MAC address is the 12-character code that is printed on the configuration status report each time the
printer is turned on.
You can use the BOOTP, rarp, or ping procedures only when the print server is in its factory default state
(when no IP information has been entered.)
After the print server has an IP address, you must use the Konica Network Management Utility, or the
Apple Administration Program (for Macintosh) to change an IP address, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway.

Using BOOTP
The BOOTP daemon is a native TCP/IP option for configuring the IP address of a non-disk network device.
To communicate the IP address, use the following procedure:
1. Turn off the print server.
2. Log in as superuser on a host that is attached on the same network segment as the print server. Confirm
the subnet mask is the one you intend to use. However, if the server resides on another subnet, complete this
procedure to store the IP address in the print server.
3. Find the LAN address of the Konica Print Server. The address is printed on the configuration status
report each time you turn the printer on.
4. Edit the hosts file (usually /etc/hosts) or use NIS or DIS to add the IP address and Konica Print Server’s
node name. See the network administrator for the IP address. For example, a Konica Print Server named
printfast with an IP address of 192.9.200.200 has the following entry:
192.9.200.200 printfast
5. Stop the BOOTP daemon if it is running.
6. Edit the /etc/bootptab file and add the following information:

Konica_host:\
:ht = hardware type:\
:ha = ethernet address:\
:ip = IP address:\
:sm = subnet mask:\
:gw = gateway address:
Example, for an RFC 1048 system:
printfast:\
:ht = ether:\
:ha= 0040AF03AF6E:\
:ip = 192.9.200.200:\
:sm = 255.0.0.0:\
:gw =192.9.200.10:\
(If running SCO UNIX, add:)
:vm = rfc1048:

Using BOOTP (continued)
The same information uses the following format on an RFC 951 system:
host htype haddr iaddr bootfile
printfast 1 00:40:af:03:af:6e 192.9.200.200 default boot
7. Start the BOOTP daemon by typing: bootpd -s
8. Check the printer to verify that the Konica Print Server is connected to the network. Turn on the printer.
9. Wait until the printer powers up and finishes initializing to allow enough time for the IP address to
become known and to be saved in nonvolatile memory. The Konica Print Server should re-initialize itself.
10. After the Konica Print Server has re-initialized, send a ping command to verify that the print server
obtained its IP address. For example:
ping 192.9.200.200
If the print server has the address, a confirmation message displays:
192.9.200.200 is alive
11. Remove your changes to the /etc/bootptab file.
12. Stop the BOOTP daemon and, if you want it to run, restart it.

Using rarp
The Reverse Address Resolution Protocol (rarp) allows network devices to query a server for their IP
addresses on start-up. This procedure requires a workstation with a rarp server.
To store the IP address, use the following procedure:
1. Turn the printer off.
2. Log in as superuser on the rarp server.
If the server resides on another subnet, complete this procedure to store the IP address in the print server.
Reconnect the print server anywhere on the network.
3. Find the Ethernet address of the Konica Print Server. The address is printed on the configuration status
report when you power on the printer.
4. Edit the hosts file (usually /etc/hosts) or use NIS or DIS to add the IP Address and Konica Print Server's
node name.
See the network administrator for the IP address. For example, a print server with the name of printfast has
the following entry:
192.9.200.200 printfast
5. Edit the /etc/ethers file or use NIS or DIS to add the Ethernet address.
To continue the example, for the printfast card with an Ethernet address of 00:40:c8:00:00:ff, make the
following entry:
0:40:c8:0:0:ff printfast

Using rarp (continued)
6. If the rarp daemon is running, stop it and restart it. Verify that the daemon is running.
7. Check the printer to see that the print server is connected to the network. Turn on the printer.
8. Wait until the printer powers up and finishes initializing to allow enough time for the IP address to
become known and to be saved in nonvolatile memory. The Konica Print Server should then reset itself.
9. After the Konica Print Server has reset, send a ping command to verify that the print server obtained its
IP address. For example:
ping 192.9.200.200
If the print server has the address, a confirmation message displays:
192.9.200.200 is alive
10. Remove your changes to the /etc/ethers file.
11. Stop the rarp daemon and, if you want it to run, restart it.

Using ping
Use the following procedure to enter the IP address:
1. Turn off the printer.
2. Log in as superuser on a host on the same subnet as the print server. However, if the server resides on
another subnet, complete this procedure to store the IP address in the print server.
3. Find the Ethernet address of the Konica Print Server. The address is printed on the configuration status
report each time you turn the printer on.
4. Edit the hosts file (usually /etc/hosts) or use NIS or DIS to add the IP address and print server’s node
name. See the network administrator for the IP address. For example, a print server with a name of printfast
and an IP address of 192.9.200.200 has the entry:
192.9.200.200 printfast
5. Add an entry to the arp cache for the print server’s IP address and Ethernet address, as:
arp -s 192.9.200.200 0:40:c8:0:0:ff
RS6000 (AIX) requires the ether option after arp -s.

For example: arp -s ether 192.9.200.200 0:40:c8:0:0:ff
6. Check the printer to see that the print server is connected to the network. Turn on the printer.
7. Send a ping command the Konica Print Server to verify it is running on the network, as for example:
ping 192.9.200.200 or ping printfast
The Konica Print Server will not respond to this ping command but it will read its IP address from the
packets.
8. Turn the printer off and back on again and then send the ping command again to verify that the print
server obtained its IP address. A confirmation message displays as:
192.9.200.200 is alive
9. Remove the entry from the arp cache using the following command. Specify the print server either by its
IP address or by its name, for example:
arp -d printfast

lpd UNIX Printing
lpd is an implementation of the standard UNIX line printer daemon that lets you print across a TCP/IP
network without the need to install software on your workstation, with all filtering and banners done by
Konica Print Server.
Remote printing uses the same commands (lpr, lpq, lpc) as local printing.
The process begins when the lpr call finds a printer on a remote system by looking at the remote (rm) entry
in the /etc/printcap file for that printer.
lpr handles a print job for a remote printer by opening a connection with the lpd process on the remote
system and sending the data file (followed by the control file containing control information for this job) to
the remote system.
The printer-based lpd then filters the data and prints the job according to information contained in the
control file and its own printcap file.
The Konica Print Server lpd recognizes the format of a certain printer emulation and filters the data, if
possible, so it can be printed on the printer type you specify.
You can indicate to the Konica Print Server lpd what type of printer is attached to by either:
1. Accepting the default port setting (PCL, PostScript and other), or

2. Changing the listed emulations via a standard IP based Web Browser.
The sections that follow give specific lpd setup instructions for various systems.

lpd UNIX Printing
Setting Up a BSD Remote Printer to Use lpd
To set up a remote printer on the host that sends jobs to Konica Print Server using printer resident lpd, add
an entry to the /etc/printcap file on your host for each printer you use. The procedure is described below.
1. Open the /etc/printcap file.

Make an entry naming the Konica Print Server as the remote host and PORT1 as the remote printer name. A
typical printcap entry is as follows:
<printer_name>\ (for example, lprprinter)
:lp=:\
:rm=<remote_host>:\ (
for example, name as entered in /etc/hosts)
:rp=PORT1:\
:sd=/usr/spool/lpd/<printer_name>:
(for example, spool directory on system used to spool
data and control files)
This entry will send jobs spooled at /usr/spool/lpd/<printer_name> to the printer designated
<printer_name> to be printed at port 1 (the internal connection to the printer) of the Konica Print Server
designated as <remote_host>.
2. Create the spooling directory. For example, type:

mkdir /usr/spool/lpd/<printer_name>
3. To print via the spooler, use the lpr command. Type:

lpr-P <printer_name>< file_name>
Installation and testing are done. You are now ready to print.
Setting Up an AIX Remote Printer to Use lpd
Use the following procedure to set up a remote printer on the host that sends jobs to the Konica Print

11. If the connection is confirmed, you can now print.

lpd UNIX Printing
Setting Up an AS/400 System to Use lpd
When working with the output queue description (WORKOUTQD), there are several fields that must be
defined for the Konica Print Server to function properly as a remote printer device.
Use the following procedure to define fields for the print server to make it function as a remote printer:
1. When prompted for the remote system, type INTNETADR so the AS/400 recognizes the device as an IP
device.
2. Type: PORT1
3. Connection type must be IP.
4. Internet address must be the IP address of the Konica Print Server device.
5. Destination type must be OTHER.
6. When prompted for transforming SCS to ASCII, type YES to allow the AS/400 do the character transla-
tion.
7. Manufacturer type and model must be the print driver that goes with your printer. For example,
OKI320IBM.

:sd=/usr/spool/lpd/printer1: (name of the spool directory on the client)

lpd UNIX Printing
Setting Up System V Release 4 and Solaris 2.X to Use lpd
If your system recognizes the LPSYSTEM command, you do not need to install Konica's host-side software.
Another option is the admintool if your system supports it.
LPSYSTEM Installation
The following procedure must be executed from the Bourne Shell.
Type: SH then press Enter to enter the Bourne Shell program.
Use the following procedures to install LPSYSTEM:
1. lpsystem -t bsd
Print server host name in /etc/hosts file. Your system may want its IP address instead of the remote host
name.
2. lpadmin -p <local printername> -s <remote host name or IP address>!PORT1
NOTES:
1. There is no space between the remote host name and !PORT.
2. Enable <local printername>
3. Accept <local printername>

Installing TCP/IP If Not Running lpd
The TCP/IP CDROM provided with the KN-302 Print Server includes install scripts for various UNIX
systems.
This section describes how to install TCP/IP printing on the KN-302 Print Server for any of the following
operating systems:
• DEC ULTRIX 4.3 RISC
• System V Rel. 4
• Solaris (Ver. 1.x, 2.x)
• SCO UNIX
• OSF1/ALPHA
• IBM AIX
• HP/UX
Once the Konica Print Server has its IP information loaded, the following steps are necessary for host-side
TCP/IP printing:
1. Load the print server software on your workstation.

It is presented as a tar file on the TCP/IP CDROM.
2. Run the appropriate installation script, if available.
3. Complete the configuration for your operating system.

Loading the Software
The following procedures are only necessary when using the supplied host-based lpr capability.
Loading the software is not necessary if printer-based lpr is used.
1. Log in as superuser to the system that spools directly to the print server.
2. Insert the print server’s TCP/IP CDROM in the host drive.
3. Go to or create the directory in which you want to install the software.

For example:
mkdir /usr/PSC_install
NOTE: If you already have a Konica Print Server printer at your site and you are now installing another one, delete the files in the
installation directory not (/usr/Konica). If these files remain, they can prevent the installation of a subsequent print server.
4. Use the tar command to load the software from the CDROM. Choose your UNIX version from the
example from the following table, or if not shown, consult the man page for your system:
UNIX Version Example
BSD/ULTRIX/AIX/SCO tar -xvf/dev/rfd0

System V tar -xvf/dev/rdsk/f13ht
System V/Solaris 2.3 tar -xvf/dev/rCDROM
NOTE: The device name varies depending on the computer and its peripheral designations. The first BSD floppy device is often
called rfd0.
5. After performing the tar, the system will display a list of Konica Print Server files copied by the tar. At
this point, go to the appropriate section in this manual for instructions on running the installation script on
your system.

Filters
There will be certain options in executing the script for various systems.
PostScript UNIX Printing
The installation script can create an entry in the /etc/printcap file for your printer:
ASCII, PCLfiles
If your printer is not a PostScript printer, the install script uses an input filter (infilter) that supplies CR/LF
translation to print ASCII files on a PCL printer.
If your printer is a PostScript printer, your printcap file will reference psfilter which offers easy ASCII-to-
PostScript conversion. Normal PostScript format files are not affected. Proprietary and public domain filters
are available for broader filtering capabilities.
PSBanner
The Konica Print Server ships with an input filter called psbanner, an output filter to print PostScript
banners.
You may change infilter or outfilter entries in the /etc/printcap file.
The following is a sample printcap entry using these filters:
<print_name> | Konica Print Server printer:\
:lp=/dev/nic/<printer_name>:\
:if=/usr/nic/psfilter:\
:of=/usr/nic/psbanner:\
:sd=/usr/spool/<printer_name>:

Installing and Printing on Ver. 1 Solaris and OSF1 Systems
1. Run the Installation script by typing: nicinst.
The script automatically downloads the correct Konica Print Server utilities for your particular system and
prompts you for information as needed.
2. What is the node name of the Print Server unit?

Type the node name entered in /etc/hosts.
For example, type: printfast, then press Enter.
3. What is the printer name? Type desired printer name, then press Enter.
4. The screen displays install script information you provided, as for example:
Node name of the Konica Print Server: printfast
Printer name to be used: <printer_name>
The printer is attached on: PORT1
When asked to OK this configuration, type yes or no, then press Enter.
5. The script creates a printcap entry for the printer just configured.
The screen displays the entry and asks if you want the script to append it to your /etc/printcap file. See
below for a sample printcap file.
Type yes or no, then press Enter.

If you type no, you may perform manual edits.
In your /etc/printcap file, be sure not to change the name of the device given Konica Print Server in Step
2. You must reference the same lp: entry you wrote on the lp command line of the printcap file. For ex-
ample:
<printer_name> | Konica Print Server printer:\
:lp=/dev/<printer_name>:\
:if=/usr/nic/infilter:\
Except for the first line, all printcap entries must be prefaced with a tab.

Installing and Printing on Ver. 1 Solaris and OSF1 Systems (continued)
6. The Installation script creates a spool directory in /usr/spool and starts the daemon for the newly config-
ured printer.
It also displays the path used in case you need to restart the daemon.
For example:
/usr/nic/nic_print /dev/nic/<printer_name> printfast 10001 &
7. Run the ps command so that you can view all your lpd processes.
Type: ps -ax | grep lpd
8. To stop ALL printing, use the kill command on your lpd processes.
Type: kill -9 <Process ID>
9. Restart the daemon.
Type: /usr/lib/lpd
10. Installation for the system is completed.

When prompted to configure additional printers:
Type yes or no, then press Enter.
It is recommended that you ping the Konica Print Server to test communications.

Installing and Printing on DEC ULTRIX 4.3 System


Type the node name entered in /etc/hosts. For example,
type printfast, then press Enter.
3. What is the printer name?

Type the desired printer name, then press Enter.
4. The screen displays your install script information, as, for example:

You are asked to OK this configuration. Type yes or no, then press Enter.
5. The script creates a printcap entry for the printer just configured.
The screen displays the entry (see sample printcap file below) and asks if you want the script to append it to
your /etc/printcap file.
Type yes or no, then press Enter. Type no to perform manual edits.
<printer_name> | Konica Print Server printer:\

:lp=/dev/<printer_name>:\
:if=/usr/nic/infilter:\
6. Installation for the system is completed. When prompted to configure additional printers, type yes or no,
then press Enter. It is recommended that you ping the Konica Print Server to test communications.
Like all BSD systems, ULTRIX uses the /etc/printcap file to configure a printer. The interface to the
installation script is the same for all BSD systems, however, the printcap entry is different.
If you use the printcap entry generated automatically by the installation script, this will be transparent to
you.

Installing and Printing on HP/UX System


Type the node name entered in /etc/hosts. For example,
type printfast, then press Enter.

Type the desired printer name, then press Enter.
4. Your screen displays your install script information, as for example:

5. The script starts the daemon for the newly configured printer automatically. It also displays the path used
should you ever need to restart the daemon. In the following example, the path would be:
/usr/nic/nic_print /dev/Konica/printer_name printfast 10001 &
This example reflects names supplied to the script earlier.
When the installation script is completed, you must configure the printer and make it known to the lp
system. The HP/UX lp system uses the lpadmin maintenance command to configure a printer (there is no /
etc/printcap file).
Use the following specific commands to configure the printer:
lpadmin -p printer_name -v /dev/nic/printer_name

enable printer_name
accept printer_name
See HP's alternative SAM method for configuring the printer on next page.

Installing and Printing on HP/UX System (continued)
Using the SAM Program to Configure the Printer
HP supplies the sam program as an alternative method for configuring the printer. The printer name must be
the same as the one you entered during the Konica Print Server installation.
When using sam, specify everything as if the printer were directly connected to /dev/lprprinter/
printer_name.
The software installed with your HP system can satisfy most of your printing needs. HP supplies ASCII-to-
PostScript filters, and the system will invoke the filters automatically if you define the content type of the
printer as PostScript.
The HP/UX lp system also supplies interface scripts that produce PostScript banners. Use the lpfilter
command to define new filters and content types if necessary.
The full power and flexibility of the lp print service is now available to you. The fact that you are printing
across the network is completely transparent.

Installing and Printing on System V (Solaris Ver. 2)/System V Rel. 4 386-based Machine
Installation and setup is exactly the same for System V Solaris and SVR4 i386-based machines.
Solution uses a network direct filter called nicfilter. The system invokes nicfilter directly from the printer
interface file.
After completing the software download in Loading the Software, you must configure the printer and make
it known to the lp system.

2. Select your system by choosing one of the following options:
1) AT&T/SVR4; 386
2) SCO UNIX System V
3) None of the above
Type 1, 2, or 3, then press Enter.
3. You have now installed TCP/IP on the Konica Print Server.
Copy your interface file.

(/usr/nic is a good place to keep your copy).
4. Edit the printer interface program this printer uses to redirect output to the Konica Print Server. Then,
configure your printer using lpadmin.
In most cases you would use the default interface script named standard (usually found in the /usr/spool/
lp/admins/lp/model directory).
If you wish to use an interface tuned to a specific printer, you must have a copy of the interface file for the
port you want to initialize. For example:
cp /usr/spool/lp/model/standard /usr/nic/port1_interface

Installing and Printing on System V (Solaris Ver. 2)/System V Rel. 4 386-based Machine
(continued)
Most Version 2 Solaris machines have a shell variable called FILTER that can be changed to invoke
nicfilter.
A typical example is:
FILTER=" /usr/nic/infilter | /usr/nic/nicfilter \
PSC_name 10001 ${nobanner} \
${user_name} ${request_id} ${files} "
You must specify the Konica Print Server name (PSC_name) and the Konica Print Server port (10001)
indicated above to enable the nicfilter to connect to the Konica Print Server unit. The name must be the
same as the one you entered in /etc/hosts for this Konica Print Server.
The remaining arguments are optional. nicfilter uses them to produce a high quality banner. The lp print
service user name, request id, file names and options always pass to the interface file. They will be available
in any interface script as shell variables, although they may have different names.
If you disable banners in the lp command, the system will set the ${nobanner} option to yes. This will
suppress the Konica Print Server banner generation.
If you don’t define the FILTER shell variable in your interface file, you can usually modify it to pipe data to
nicfilter. The simplest way to accomplish this is to enclose the entire script in parentheses and pipe it to
nicfilter, using the arguments described above.
If you wish to use the banner generated by the interface file, simply omit the last four arguments.
NOTE: These arguments are shell variables from the interface file. They may have different names (names used above are from the
standard interface file supplied with most Version 2 and i386 systems).

Installing and Printing on SCO UNIX System
Installation and setup is similar for HP/UX and SCO UNIX systems.
The Konica Print Server solution uses a network direct filter called nicfilter. The system invokes nicfilter
directly from the printer interface file.
After completing software download in Loading the Software, you must configure the printer and make it
known to the lp system. Use the following steps:

2. Select your system. Choose one from these options:
1) AT&T/SVR4; 386
2) SCO UNIX System V
3) None of the above
Type 1, 2, or 3 and press Enter.
3. What is the node name of the Konica Print Server?
Type the name assigned in the /etc/hosts file, then press Enter.
For example, type: printfast
4. What is the printer name for this Konica Print Server-linked printer?
Type a printer name, then press Enter.
5. The screen displays your install script information. For example:
Do you want to accept this configuration? Type yes or no, then press Enter.

Installing and Printing on SCO UNIX System (continued)
6. The script automatically starts the daemon for the newly configured printer. It also displays the path used
should you ever need to restart the daemon. In the preceding example, the path would be:
/usr/nic/nic_print /dev/nic/printer_name printfast 10001 &
This example reflects names supplied to the script earlier. When the installation script is complete, you must
still configure the printer and make it known to the lp system.
The SCO UNIX lp system uses the lpadmin maintenance command to configure a printer (there is no /etc/
printcap file).
The specific commands to do this are:

lpadmin -p printer_name -v /dev/nic/printer_name
NOTE: Your host may require you to specify the model by using the -i command.
enable printer_name
accept printer_name
You can also use other options for the lpadmin command. See your system documentation for details. Note
that the printer name must be the same as the one you entered during Konica Print Server installation.
The software installed with your SCO system can satisfy most of your printing needs. SCO supplies ASCII-
to-PostScript filters and the system will invoke them automatically if you define the content type of the
printer as PostScript.
The SCO UNIX lp system also supplies interface scripts that produce PostScript banners. Use the lpfilter
command to define new filters and content types if necessary. The full power and flexibility of the lp print
service is now apparent. Your printing across the network is completely transparent.

Installing and Printing on AIX RISC System/6000
The AIX printing subsystem is driven by the qdaemon program.
The qdaemon uses configuration information stored in the /usr/lpd/qconfig file to manage queues and
route jobs to the proper devices. This information includes entries for each virtual printer and physical
device known to the system.
An AIX virtual printer is simply a high level software view of a data stream, queue, and device that controls
how a given job will be processed. A different virtual printer should be defined for each data stream that a
real printer supports. For example, you would use different virtual printers for PostScript and PCL jobs even
though they are destined for the same physical printer.
Configuring a Konica Print Server printer on an AIX system approximates configuration of a local printer as
closely as possible. The only difference is that the physical device associated with your Konica Print Server
printer must be a named pipe used by the print daemon to route data to Konica Print Server.
The following procedure shows the most straightforward way to add a printer to your system:
1. Run the Install script by typing: nicinst.


Type the node name entered in /etc/hosts, for example,
type: printfast, then press Enter.
Type: the desired printer name, then press Enter.

Installing and Printing on AIX RISC System/6000 (continued)
4. The screen will display the install script information you provided, as for example:
5. Configure a virtual printer using printer_name as the physical device, where printer_name is the same
printer name chosen during install.
6. Use the following command to shut down the qdaemon and stop all printing:
stopsrc -s qdaemon
7. Edit /etc/qconfig to change the special file for device printer_name
from: /dev/printer_name
to: /dev/nic/printer_name.
8. Restart the daemon with:

startsrc -s daemon
The installation script creates the named pipe and starts the supplied print daemon using the printer name
and Konica Print Server information you supplied.
Since the AIX System Management Interface Tool (SMIT) cannot accept a named pipe as a printer device,
the installation script creates a null character device in /dev/printer_name.

Virtual Printer Commands
By entering the device name printer_name for configuration purposes, virtual printers can be added either
through SMIT or through the mkvirprt command.
During this process you also select a particular printer type for the new printer, which inherits the set of
predefined attributes for that printer type.
In most cases, this set of attributes will be sufficient, but it can be changed either through SMIT or by using
the chvirprt command. If you need to make more extensive changes on your printer, see the AIX RISC
System/6000 documentation for information.
Before you edit the files, be sure that the following daemon is running:
/usr/nic/nic_print /dev/nic/printer_name printfast 10001 &
Use the following procedures to add or change virtual printers:
1. Run nicinst.
When prompted, enter information for the following questions:
• Nodename (host name in the /etc/hosts file)

• Printer name
• Unit type
• Port number - Enter 1 for parallel port 1
Answer y to accept the configuration and n when prompted to configure

another printer.
2. At the prompt, type smit, then press Enter.
3. Choose Devices.
4. Choose Printer/Plotter.
5. Choose Manage Local Printer Subsystem.
6. Choose 1. Printer or Plotter attached to Host.

Virtual Printer Commands (continued)
7. Enter the Device name.

Use the same name entered during the install for printer name.
8. For Type of Printer, enter a number from the printers list, then press Enter.
9. Header pages wanted? Type n for none.
10. Trailer pages wanted? Type n for none.
11. Enter Print Queue name. Type ! to bypass configuration.
12. Should this be the default queue?

Enter y for yes or n for no, then press Enter.
13. Exit smit.
14. Type cd/etc, then press Enter.

After the virtual printer has been added, there will be a stanza in /etc/qconfig for device printer_name
that looks like the following:
printer_name:
file=/dev/printer_name
backend=/usr/lpd/probe
Edit /usr/qconfig and change the following:

file=/dev/printer_name to file=/dev/nic/printer_name
15. Type stopsrc -s qdaemon.
16. Type startsrc -s daemon. Now you can print using the lp command.
AIX Print Commands
The AIX lp command works slightly differently from the lp command for other System V Release 4
systems. The following lp commands can be used to print files:
lp -d <queue_name> <filename> or
lp -d <queue_name>:<device_name> <file_name>

Troubleshooting
How to Determine the Cause of a Problem
To determine the cause of your printing problems, check the following:
• CHECK PRINT SERVER STATUS PAGE(S) TO CONFIRM THAT EACH NETWORK PROTOCOL IS INSTALLED
AND CONFIGURED CORRECTLY.
Unit Serial No: 123456 Version: 00

Network Address: 00:40:af:02:71:50
Novell Print Server Name: KN3_123456
• IF YOU MADE CHANGES TO YOUR NETWORK, BE SURE THE CHANGES DID NOT AFFECT THE PRINT
SERVER PRINTER(S) CONFIGURATION.
Check to see if you installed and configured the Print Server correctly. See section 3 for Novell or
section 5 for TCP/IP.
• CHECK TO SEE IF OTHER PRINT SERVER USERS CAN PRINT.
If you added, changed or removed any network hardware, check to see if it is installed correctly.
• CHECK TO SEE IF THE USERS ARE ON THE SAME NETWORK OPERATING SYSTEM. IF YES, REFER TO
TROUBLESHOOTING INFORMATION FOR NOVELL OR TCP/IP.
If you added or updated software, make sure the version is compatible and installed correctly.
Go to your Novell NetWare manual to confirm Setup.
• PRINT SERVER AND PRINTER
Check the printer connections for the printer.

If each user is using a different NOS, go to the sectionfor the specific NOS. If users are trying to
print to different printers, check all cables and connections.
Troubleshooting 6-7
Troubleshooting
Printer Basic Checklist
• An error on your printer control panel may indicate a break in communication from the network to
the printer. This may be a result of the network server going down, or from cables that are loose or
disconnected.
• Check to see if the printer control panel displays printer status, and be sure the printer is on-line.
If the control panel displays an error, check error conditions and jam conditions in the printer
manual.
• If the printer is plugged into the power outlet and the printer is turned ON, try using another outlet.
• Make sure that all your connections are securely fastened.
• Make sure the file server is up and on-line.
Network Connections to the KN-302
• Make sure you are using the correct network interface port and that each connection is secure.
• Try another cable to make sure you do not have a bad cable.
6-8 Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting
KN-302 Troubleshooting
Make sure you have properly configured the KN-302 for each network protocol you are using, i.e., Novell,
AppleTalk, and TCP/IP.
• Enable all protocols you are using.
• Use the Konica Network Management Utility to enable the protocols that you are using with
KN-302.
Novell
• For Novell, make sure you configure all KN-302 printers usingPCONSOLE.
You need to configure each printer you want to use.
AppleTalk
• For AppleTalk, make sure the KN-302 printer(s) are listed in Chooser.
This printer appears as the KN3#<Serial number> 1 in Chooser (unless you changed it).
All Protocols
• Check the KN-302 status page to make sure your network protocol is enabled.
• Check the KN-302 status page to make sure there is no error message.
If there is an error page, follow the instructions on the page to make your corrections and then try
printing again.
Troubleshooting 6-9
Troubleshooting
Novell Protocol
It is recommended that you first run the Konica Network Management Utility for Windows to try and
troubleshoot your NetWare problem. If you still cannot resolved the problem, then go through the checklist
below.
Print Server
• Check that the print Server name is entered correctly as KN3_<serial number>
• If the printer is serviced by more than one Print Server make sure the print jobs are directed
correctly through PCONSOLE.
Printer
• Check print queue assignment to be sure that print queues are assigned ONLY to the Print Server
printers; otherwise print jobs will go to other network printers.
• Check the PCONSOLE configuration to be sure the KN-302 printer(s) are assigned in
PCONSOLE to the printer type REMOTE OTHER/UNKNOWN.
• Check PCONSOLE configuration to be sure the correct form is enabled.
• If you are printing graphics that may require two minutes or longer to print out, increase the
timeout using NetWare's PRINTCON or CAPTURE utility.
NOTE: If the PCONSOLE settings are correct, the connection between the printer and the network may have been broken. Turn
the printer off and wait for a status message that indicates the printer is Not Connected (using PCONSOLE). When printer power
is resumed the status should change to Waiting for Job.
6-10 Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting
Novell File Server Checklist
• First, check to be sure the File Server has enough Hard Disk space and is up and running.
• Use PCONSOLE to verify that the correct File Server is associated with the Print Server.
If the KN-302 Loses Its Novell File Server Connection
• If the KN-302 loses its connection to the file server, it can take approximately five to ten minutes
to reconnect. No action is required, since it will automatically try to reconnect on its own.
• If the connection is not made after a reasonable amount of time, you should check the other error
conditions listed in this chapter to help troubleshoot the problem.
KN-302 Workstation Checklist
• Be sure you have Supervisor/Administrator rights to configure the Print Server using PCONSOLE.
• From any workstation, run NetWare's COMCHECK to verify that the File Server and the Print
Server are communicating.
• Make sure the network is loaded on every workstation that is trying to access Print Server printers.
See Novell NetWare documentation.
• Make sure the workstation's programs are set up to print to the Print Server printer; and you are
using the connect printer driver.
• Verify that the workstation is connected to the correct print queue by printing a file.
• Make sure the print queues assigned to the Print Server printers are not assigned to other network
printers.
• Use NetWare's PRINTCON to enable AUTOENDCAP.
• Use PRINTCON or CAPTURE to set a longer print job timeout. A setting of two minutes or more
is recommended for printing graphics.

Troubleshooting
KN-302 Configuration Checklist
Workstation > Queue > File Server > Print Server > Printer
• Using the MAP browser from the workstation, look under Protocols and Protocol Status to check
the Print Server status, or to display the server's queue status.
• Using PCONSOLE from the workstation, direct the print jobs to the correct queues, then check to
see if the print job is in the queue. Use PCONSOLE to be sure you correctly configured any
devices you may have changed or added.
• Make sure the Print Server name is entered correctly as KN3_<serial number>. If you changed
the name using the MAP browser, be sure to change the name in PCONSOLE to make the
change effective.
• PCONSOLE Version 1.0 cannot be used to configure the Print Server. To upgrade PCONSOLE,
contact Novell.
• Use the MAP browser to access the Konica Printer Management System and check the Uniport
configuration. If this port is being used as an output port, it must be enabled to receive print jobs.
Print Server/File Server/Printer Connection Checklist
Workstation > File Server > Print Server > Printer

• If the Print Server cannot log into the File Server or cannot service jobs from the server, check the
following:
• Check to see if the Print Server is configured for the file server. If it is not, use PCONSOLE to
configure it.
• Use the MAP browser to access the Konica Printer Management System and update the password
stored in the Print Server. The password assigned to the Print Server through PCONSOLE must
match the one assigned through MAP.
• Use PCONSOLE to verify that print jobs are being sent to the Print Server printer. Be sure the
print jobs are in the print queue and are waiting to be printed. To check this, PCONSOLE must be
in the Remote Printer mode.
Troubleshooting
Workstation to KN-302 Connection Checklist
Workstation > Print Server > Printer
• Using PCONSOLE from the Workstation print a file to be sure the print job gets to the Print Server
print queue. If it is successful, the problem is not in the Workstation to Print Server connection.
• Use NetWare's CAPTURE utility to send data from a Workstation software application to the Print
Server Printer. See NetWare Print Server manual.
• Verify that another printer is not taking the print jobs from the queue(s) BEFORE the Print Server
can service the job. Disable the other printer until you can verify the Print Server printer setup.
• Be sure that serial connected printers match the baud rate, flow, word size, parity and stops of the
Print Server units.

• Use the AppleTalk Administration Program in Section 4 to verify if you selected the correct
KN-302 and the correct zone.
Printer Checklist
• From the Macintosh workstation, use chooser to see if there are other printers with similar names,
and choose the correct KN-302.
• If background printing is enabled, select Print Monitor to see ifthere is an error in printing.
• If you used the AppleTalk Administration Program, check to see if you configured the KN-302
printers correctly.
• The printer name must appear in Chooser. If you did not use the AppleTalk Administration
Program to configure the KN-302, look for the printer named KN3_<serial number> in Chooser.
• Use Chooser to confirm that AppleTalk is On.
• If the network has multiple zones, be sure to choose the correct zone. See Section 4.
• If you renamed the printer in the AppleTalk Administration Program, you must reselect the printer
under the new name.
• If you placed the printer in a new zone, you must select the new zone in order to select the printer.
Multiple Zones
• If the network has multiple zones, be sure to choose the correct zone. See Section 4.
• If you renamed the printer in the AppleTalk Administration Program, you must re-select the printer
under the new name.
• If you placed the printer in a new zone, you must select the new zone in order to select the printer.
