The D-Link DP-301P+ Print Server is a pocket size print server that connects to

your Ethernet/Fast Ethernet network anywhere you wish to locate printer services.

The DP-301P+ manages the flow of print files from workstations or file servers to

connected printers, delivering print jobs to printers much faster than a file server or

a PC acting as a print server.

The DP-301P+ includes easy-to-use software to install on most Windows-based

networks. Protocol support for TCP/IP, NetBEUI, and AppleTalk are provided to

ensure seamless connection to major networking operating systems.

The DP-301P+ has a built in Web-based management feature that allows users to

easilyconfigureandmanage multiple printqueuesthroughTCP/IP.TheDP-301P+

also supports Telnet as an alternative method to configure the unit.

The DP-301P+ improves network printing services in the following ways:

Introduction



TheDP-301P+managesprintfiletraffic. Thisprovidesworkloadrelief

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 print server

without increasing the load of another workstation or server.

BecausetheDP-301P+isveryportableandinexpensivecomparedto

a PC-based print server, and the print server connects to your file

servers through the network, printers can be deployed to locations of

maximum convenience to users.

External Features

PortConnectors

The DP-301P+’s parallel port is located on its front panel. The port can be

configured using the PSAdmin program or the print server’s Telnet interface. (See

the PSAdmin User’s Guide, available on the CD that came with the DP-301P+, for

information about configuring the print server’s ports.) The print server also

supports web configuration permitting users to configure settings through the Web

browser. The default IP address is as follows:

Default IP address – 192.168.0.10

Subnet mask – 255.255.255.0

The DP-301P+ offers extraordinary flexibility, operating with all major network

operating systems and protocols:

TCP/IP

UNIXLPR/LPD(HP-UX,SunOS,Solaris,SCO, UnixWare,IBMAIX)

Windows NT/2000, Windows 95/98SE/Me, Windows XP

NetWare 5.x NDPS LPR Remote Printing

NetBEUI

Windows NT/2000/XP, Windows 95/98SE/Me, Windows for Workgroups,

MicrosoftLANManager,IBMLANServer

AppleTalk

Mac OS EtherTalk

Windows-based setup and administration software,PSAdmin, is supplied with the

print server, making configuration and management quick and easy. The print

server also supports configuration and management via the Telnet protocol for

networks without Windows-compatible machines.

Note:

ThePC’sIPaddress mustbeinthesamesubnetas theprintserver’sIPaddressforthe

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

shouldbe192.168.0.x,wherexisavaluebetween1-254,excluding10.)

LANPort-NetworkCableConnector

The print server’s rear panel features a LAN port for connection to Ethernet/Fast

Ethernet cabling (which should be CAT5 twisted-pair cable). The port supports the

NWay protocol, allowing the print server to automatically detect or negotiate the

transmission speed of the network. Use this port to connect to your network router.

Power- DCPowerConnector

The DC power input connector is located on the print server’s rear panel .

LEDIndicators

The back panel of the print server features three LED indicators:

ACT - Lights up to indicate activity on the network.

LPT - Lights up to indicate printing activity.

1 - Lights up to indicate that the DP-301P+ is powered ON.

The front panel of the print server features the parallel port connector. Plug this

connectordirectly intothe parallelport on your networkprinter.There isno needfor

a parallel port cable between the print server and your network printer.

Setting up the DP-301P+

Installing the Print Server

WARNING:Configurationproblemsmayresultiftheprintserverispowered

upwithoutfirstestablishingitsnetworkconnection.Followthisprocedureto

avoidcomplicationsattheconfigurationstage.

Plug the power adapter into the DP-301P+’s DC 5V power socket.7.

Plug the power adapter into a power outlet. This will supply power to the print

server, as it has no external power switch. The green Power LED on the Print

Server’s front panel should illuminate steadily, and the Print Server’s Self-Test

will proceed.

Switch on the connected printer.6.

While the printer is powered OFF, install the DP-301P+ parallel port connector

into the parallel port on the network printer.

Using an Ethernet CAT5 cable, connect the DP-301P+ to the network.

Confirm that your network is operating normally.

When you have confirmed proper operation of the printer, switch its power

OFF.

Confirm proper operation of the printers to be connected to the DP-301P+.

Power ON Self-Test

Every DP-301P+ has been factory-tested to operate properly.

Whenever the DP-301P+ is powered up, two testing procedures follow

automatically. The first procedure is a programmed series of flashes intended to

confirm proper operation of the LED indicators. The second procedure comprises

programmed tests of the DP-301P+’s internal circuitry. If any fault is found during

the circuitry tests, testing stops and a continuous pattern of flashes signals the

nature of the fault.

Immediately upon power-up, the (Power) and LPT indicators will illuminate

steadilyingreenforseveralseconds.ThentheLPTindicatorwillbecomedarkwhile

the (Power)indicatorremainssteady.Irregularity of any indicator duringthistest

indicates that there is a problem with the indicators themselves.

The circuit tests immediately follow the indicator test. A normal (no fault) result is

signaled by three flashes of the LPT indicator and the start of normal print server

operation. If any error condition is found during the circuit tests, testing will halt with

the LPT indicator continuously signaling the particular error according to the

followingtable:

Circuit Tests

In the event of a Firmware Reload Required error at startup, proceed according to

instructions given in the PS Admin User’s Guide (“PS Admin Administration”

section, under the heading “Upgrading the Print Server’s Internal Firmware”).

The PS Admin software includes a Print Test function for confirmation of print server connections and

functions. This operational test can be performed after you have installed the PS Admin software and

completed the PS Admin procedures for configuring the DP-301P+. See the instructions given in the PS Admin

Users Guide (“Getting Started Setting up Your Print Server” section, under the heading “Testing your Print

Server”).

Getting Started

For a list of printers that are compatible with the DP-301P+, please see the

Appendix in this manual. The compatibility list is not comprehensive. Even if it

is not included in the list, your printer may be compatible with the DP-301P+.

Below is a sample network using the DP-301P+. The DP-301P+ has a built-

in Web-based management feature that allows users to easily configure

and manage multiple print queues through TCP/IP.
