safety compliance

The HP Wireless Print Server wp110 complies with

EN60950:

EN60950 1992 +A1,A2,A3,A4,A11

connecting the print server

Before you begin, verify that you have an appropriate IEEE 1284 compliant parallel

printer cable to connect the print server to the printer.

1 connect the parallel cable

1. Turn off the printer.

2. Connect the

appropriate

IEEE 1284

compliant parallel printer cable to the

printer and the print server.

3. Turn on the printer.

2 plug in the power cord

1. Plug the small end of the power cord

into the print server.

2. Plug the conventional end of the power

cord into the power source.

Note The print server does not have a

power switch. It automatically turns on

when the power cord is connected to a

power source.

3 monitor the LEDs

1. Wait until the print server cycles through

the start-up sequence and only the Power

light remains lit.

2. Allow at least 10 seconds for the print

server to retrieve information from the

printer.

Power light

4 print a configuration page

1. Press and hold the Test button on the

back of the print server until the Power

and Status lights begin blinking. A Print

Server Configuration Page is printed.

2. Save this page for reference. You will

need it to configure the print server.

Note Printing a Print Server Configuration

Page verifies communication between the

print server and the printer. This page also

provides important information about the

print server, its settings, and its current status

(see page 12 for more information).

configuring the print server

This section provides the basic steps required to configure the print server. For more

detailed instructions, see the Configuration Guide

on the CD-ROM.

Before you begin, verify that:

•the computer uses a supported operating system. The print server supports:

–Windows 98, NT 4.0, Me, and 2000.

–Macintosh 8.6, 9.x, and OS X.

•the print server is properly connected and a Print Server Configuration Page was

printed and saved for reference. See page 5 for more information.

•the WLAN network interface card is properly installed on each computer using the

print server and working correctly.

•each computer using the print server has either the HP Network or Corporate User

driver (also known as the Add Printer driver) to install the printer. Printer drivers are

available at www.hp.com/support/printers. You may also install the driver using the

printer's CD-ROM.

•the WLAN access point is working correctly (infrastructure mode only).

The sequence for configuring the print server is different for the Windows and Macintosh

operating systems. Follow the appropriate configuration sequence.

Windows

If configuring multiple print servers,

remember that only one print server can

be configured at a time.

1. Ensure that the computer is in ad hoc

mode. Then set the following on the

computer:

–SSID (service set identifier): hp

–WEP: disable

2. From the DOS command prompt, use

a route ADD command to establish a

path from the computer to the print

server. The print server factory default

IP address is 192.0.0.192; Subnet

and Gateway: 255.255.255.255.

Note enter ipconfig to verify the

computer’s IP address. Use the route ADD

command to establish a path. For

example, for a computer IP address of

192.124.11.11, enter route ADD

192.0.0.192 192.124.11.11. If DHCP is

enabled on the computer, allow two

minutes for an IP address to be assigned.

3. Enter 192.0.0.192 as the URL in a

browser to open the print server’s

Embedded Web Server.

Note Disable the web proxy if one is

being used on the computer.

4. In the Embedded Web Server, select

the Wireless Settings option from the

Configuration menu. Then:

a. Set the print server to the desired

mode (ad hoc or infrastructure).

b. Set the print server SSID to match

the SSID of the WLAN.

c. If WEP security is in use, enable

the WEP Request and enter the

appropriate WEP key as specified

by your network administrator.

5. Apply the changes and reset the print

server by following either the dialog

screens in the Embedded Web Server

or selecting Reset from the menu.

6. Reconfigure the computer to match the

mode of the print server, if necessary.

7. For each computer using the print

server, insert the print server CD-ROM

and select Install from the CD-ROM

menu. Follow the on-screen

instructions.

Macintosh

1. Ensure that the computer is set for

computer to computer communications.

Then open the AirPort menu and

select the hp computer-to-computer

network.

2. Ensure that AppleTalk is set to use

AirPort.

3. Insert the print server CD-ROM. From

the menu, open the appropriate hp

wp110 utility for the operating system.

4. Use the utility to:

–set the print server to the desired

mode (computer to computer or

AirPort Network).

–ensure that the print server SSID

matches the SSID of the WLAN.

–enable the WEP Request and enter

the appropriate Network Equivalent

Password to activate the WEP

feature, if appropriate.

–establish TCP/IP settings (OS X

only).

5. Reset the print server.

6. Reconfigure the computer to match the

mode of the print server, if necessary.

7. Run the Chooser to select the printer.
