Wireless Operating Modes

The AXIS OfficeBasic USB Wireless print server communicates either

in Infrastructure mode, where there is an 802.11b Access point

acting as a bridge between the workstation/laptop and the print

server, or Ad-hoc mode, where the workstation/laptop

communicates directly with the print server.

Infrastructure (AP)

Workstations and laptops communicate over the WLAN and the LAN

through an Access Point with the print server.

See Print Server setup for Windows, on page 10 or Printer

Installation - Mac OS, on page 18 for installation instructions.

Ad hoc (Peer to Peer)

Workstations and laptop computers communicate directly over the

WLAN with the print server.

See Setup in Ad Hoc (Peer-to-Peer) Networks, on page 24.

ENGLISH

Hardware Installation

1. Turn off the printer’s power.

2. Connect the print server to your printer with the supplied USB

cable.

3. Turn the printer’s power on.

4. Plug the AC power adapter into the power connector on the

backside of the wireless print server.

5. Wait 1 minute.

6. Press the print server’s external Reset button for 5 seconds. A

test page will be printed on the connected printer, displaying

information about the print server’s IP address, firmware

number, etc.

See Print Server Management Using the Reset Button, on page 21 for

detailed instructions on using the reset button.

• The Status LED will flicker when data is being transmitted and

printed.

• When the print server is powered on, the Status LED will flash 5

times as part of the unit’s Power On Self Test (POST). If the LED

doesn’t flash 5 times when you power on the unit, disconnect all

cables and repeat the installation procedure described here.

ENGLISH

IP Addressing

To enable network communication with the print server, it must

have a proper IP address. Use one of these methods to assign an IP

address to the print server:

Obtaining an IP address using DHCP

If you are working in a network with dynamic IP address

assignment, your print server will obtain an IP address automatically

when you connect it to the network. Follow the instructions on this

page to verify the IP address:

1. Print a test page by pressing the reset button for 5 seconds.

Locate the print server’s IP address on the test page.

2. Open a web browser (e.g. Internet Explorer).

3. In the Web browser’s Location/Address field, enter the print

server’s IP address and press Enter.

4. If the Wireless Print Server web page appears in your Web

browser, the IP address is fully functional. Continue with

Windows Setup, on page 13 or Printer Installation - Mac OS, on

page 18.

5. If the Wireless Print Server web page does not appear, you

need to set the print server’s IP address manually, described in

Set a Temporary IP Address with Arp/Ping:, on page 8.

Method: Server

Required: Operating System Comment:

DHCP DHCP server Windows

Mac OS

The print server obtains an

IP address automatically

from a DHCP server. By

default, the print server’s

DHCP function is enabled.

Arp/Ping Mac OS

Windows

Manual assignment of an IP

address.

ENGLISH

Set a Temporary IP Address with Arp/Ping:

You can assign a temporary IP address to the print server using

arp/ping and then access the print server’s internal web pages to

assign a fixed IP address:

1. Locate the print server’s serial number (S/N) found on the print

server’s underside label. The Ethernet address is based on the

serial number:

2. Open a Command Prompt or Terminal and enter the following

syntax:

3. The host will return psname is alive (Mac OS Terminal) or Reply

from 192.168.3.191... (Windows Command prompt) or a

similar message. This indicates that a temporary IP address has

been set and that communication is established.

4. Next, open a web browser (e.g. Internet Explorer).

5. In the Web browser’s Location/Address field, enter the print

server’s IP address and press Enter.

Serial number: MAC/Ethernet address:

00408c181cf0 00-40-8c-18-1c-f0 (Windows)

00:40:8c:18:1c:f0 (Mac OS)

Syntax Example Windows (Command prompt)

arp -s <IP address> <Ethernet address>

ping <IP address>

arp -s 192.168.3.191 00-40-8c-18-1c-f0

ping 192.168.3.191

Syntax Example Mac OS (Terminal)

arp -s <IP address> <Ethernet address>

ping <IP address>

arp -s 192.168.3.191 00:40:8c:18:1c:f0

ping 192.168.3.191

ENGLISH

6. The print server’s web page will appear. Go to Setup | TCP/IP:

7. Assign a fixed IP address to the print server: select Use the

following TCP/IP settings radio-button and enter a valid IP

address, Subnet Mask and Default Router.

8. Click Save and Restart. The new, static IP address will be

loaded.

9. Check the communication by entering the new IP address in the

browser and that the print server’s web pages appear again.

Continue with Windows Setup, on page 13 or Mac OS Setup, on

page 27.

• When you execute the ping command for the first time, you may

experience a significantly longer response time than usual.

• The IP address and serial number used here are sample values. You

must acquire a new and unused IP address from your network admin-

istrator.
