Introduction
The DP-300+ Print Server is a compact print server which connects to your
Ethernet or Fast Ethernet network anywhere you wish to locate printer services. It
manages the flow of print files from your workstations or file servers to its connected
printers, delivering print jobs to high-performance printers much faster than a file
server or a PC acting as a print server can.
DP-300+ print servers improve network printing services in three ways:
The DP-300+ picks up the workload of managing print file traffic to its con-
nected printers. This provides workload relief to your file servers, and allows
the file servers' full capacity to be used for file access or other direct services
to network users. On peer-to-peer networks, workstations can print directly to
the DP-300+ without increasing the load of another workstation or server.
The DP-300+'s parallel printer ports are IEEE 1284 compliant high-speed
bidirectional ports, which can transmit to high-speed laser printers much
faster than a PC's parallel printer port. High-speed laser printers connected to
the DP-300+'s parallel ports can be operated at full their capacity.
Because the DP-300+ is very portable and inexpensive compared to a PC-
based print server, and because the DP-300+ connects to your file servers
through the network, printers can be deployed to locations of maximum con
venience to users.

The DP-300+ offers extraordinary flexibility, operating with all major network
operating systems and protocols:
TCP/IP
Unix lpr/lpd (HP-UX, SunOS, Solaris, SCO, UnixWare, IBM AIX)
Windows NT/2000/XP
LPR for Windows 95/98/Me
NetWare 5.x NDPS LPR remote printing
NetBEUI
Windows NT/2000, Windows 95/98/Me
AppleTalk
MacOS EtherTalk
Windows-based setup and administration software, PS Admin, is supplied with the
DP-300+, making configuration and management quick and easy. The DP-300+
also supports configuration and management via the telnet protocol for networks
without Windows-compatible machines.

External Features
Port Connectors
The DP-300+’s three printer ports are located on its rear panel. Two identical parallel
ports are labeled LPT1 and LPT2; the single serial port is labeled COM. These
printer ports are independently configurable using the PS Admin program or the print
server’s telnet interface. (See the Print Server Administration User’s Guide for infor-
mation about configuring the print server’s ports.)
The print server also supports web configuration permitting users to configure set-
tings through the web browser. DP-300+ default IP address as follows:
Default IP address – 192.168.0.10
Subnet Mask – 255.255.255.0
Note:
The PC’s IP address must correspond with the print server’s IP address in the
same segment for the two devices to communicate.
Note:
The PC’s IP Address must be in the same subnet as the Print Server’s IP Address for the
two devices to communicate. (For example, if your Print Server’s IP Address is 192.168.0.
10, with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, then your computer’s IP Address should be 192.
168.0.x, where x is a value between 1-254, excluding 10.)

Network Cable Connector
The DP-300+’s rear side panel features an RJ-45 connector for connection to
10Base-T Ethernet cabling or 100Base-TX Fast Ethernet cabling (which should be
Category 5 twisted-pair cable). The port supports the NWay protocol, allowing the
print server to automatically detect or negotiate the transmission speed of the
network.
DC Power Connector
The DC power input connector is located on the DP-300+’s rear side panel and is
labeled DC 5V.

Power
-A steadily lit LED indicates the proper operation of the print server.
Link/Act
-A steadily lit LED indicates proper network connection; no lit LED indi-
cates an unsuccessful network connection. A blinking green LED indi-
cates activity (configuration or printing).
LPT1, LPT2, COM
- These LED indicators light to show that the DP-300+ is transferring
print data through the appropriate parallel or serial port.
These three indicators are also used by the print server’s power-on self test (POST)
to indicate any hardware failures.
The front panel of the DP-300+ features five LED indicators:

When you entered the default IP address, the main screen of the Print Server’s
configuration will appear (see below). In addition to the product information, you can
access and control the Print Server’s configuration through four links on the top of
this main screen: Home, Configuration, Tools, and Help.
Open your web browser and type http://192.168.0.10 in the address box, and press
<Enter>. This set of numbers is the default IP Address of your Print Server. Please
note that the PC’s IP Address must correspond with the Print Server’s IP
Address in the same segment for the two devices to communicate.

Home
Click on Home tab from the tools bar of the main screen to display information of
the DP-300+’sSystem Status and Printer Status.
System
As shown below, the System displays the status of your print server, printer, and
network. Clicking Refresh will update the information.
Device Status:The information about the print server, including the firmware
version, MAC/IP address, and up time, can be found in this field.
Printer Status:The items in this field display the information of the printer, such as
the given name for the printer, speed, printer status, and status of your printing tasks,
etc.
Ethernet Status:You can monitor the networking status in this field, including the
network connection, speed, and the packets status.
