Section 1. Tektronix Phaser 350 Color
Printer Configuration
1-1. Overview
The Tektronix Phaser 350 color printer (hereafter known as a Phaser 350) can be
used to print screencopies and text files (such as reports, reviews, and UNIX files).
The Phaser 350 printer can be connected to a system network through an Ethernet,
or directly to a WEStation through the WEStation’s parallel port.
The following sections describe the installation and configuration needed to
successfully operate a Phaser 350 printer either on a network (as described in
Section 1-2) or through a parallel port connection (as described in Section 1-3).

1-2. Using an Ethernet Connection
This section describes how to connect and configure a network Phaser 350 printer.
1-2.1. Connecting the Printer
Use the following procedure to connect the Phaser 350 printer to a network.
Confirm Ethernet Hardware
1. Optional Ethernet internal hardware (a PhaserShare card) must be installed
in the Phaser 350 printer before it can be used on an Ethernet. If a PhaserShare
card is installed in the printer, the interface shown in Figure 1-1 will be visible
on the back of your printer.
2. If there is no PhaserShare card installed, and you want to use an Ethernet
connection, contact your Westinghouse representative. Purchase the Ethernet
hardware and install it in the Phaser 350 printer. After the required hardware is
installed, proceed to Step 3.
3. Make sure you use an appropriate Ethernet cable (based on the Ethernet card
used in your printer as shown in Figure 1-1) to connect the printer to the
network.
4. Confirm that the two dip switches (Switch 1 - Service; and Switch 2 - Reset)in
the back of the printer are in the Up position.
Leave the Service switch in the Up position.
The Reset switch can be used to reset the printer. To reset the printer, put switch
2 in the Off (down) position and then turn it back to the On (up) position.

11. Press the Menu button and the front panel will display the following message:
000.000.000.000
Increment Shift Select
Note
The IP address displayed on your printer may
be a different address. Do not set the IP
address to 000.000.000.000 since this will
cause the printer to use Dynamic Address
Resolution to set its IP address (refer to the
Tektronix System Administrator manual for
details).
12. Press the Increment button to set the left-most digit of the address.
13. Press the Shift button to advance to the next digit. Press the Increment button
to set this digit.
14. Use the Shift and Increment button to set the remaining digits of the IP address.
15. When the IP address is correctly set, press the Select button to enter your
settings into the printer. The front panel displays the following message:
Confirm Selection
Confirm
16. Press the Confirm button to confirm your selection.
•If the selection is a valid number, the front panel briefly displays Selected,
and then returns to the address display. Press the Exit button to return to the
display of the parameter name, then press the right (=>) arrow button to
display the name of the next addressing parameter.
•If the selection is not a valid number, the front panel briefly displays Error,
and then returns to the address display. Repeat Steps 12 through 15 to set the
address correctly.
Note
If you do not want to confirm your selection,
press the Exit button to return to the address
display and try again.
17. Enter the following in a shelltool to confirm that you can “ping” the printer type:
ping teksc (printer name is identified in /etc/hosts file)

1-2.2. Configure Printer (8.5 Level Systems and Later)
This section provides instructions for configuring the printer so that WEStation
software can print to it.
1. Use the WDPF or Ovation Admin Tool to define the desired printers for the
Printer Manager. If necessary, refer to the “Using the Define Software
Configuration Function” section of the U0-8300 or R3-1105 manual.
A. Access the WDPF Admin Tool.
B. Select the Define Software Configuration from the Function menu.
Select the Log Server filter from the Filter scrolling list.
Select LS Printer Manager Printers from the Topic scrolling list.

C. The LS Printer Manager Printers pop-up window will appear (as shown
below). Define a screencopy printer by selecting the drop number (from
the “Configuration for Drop Numbers” selections) of the Printer Manager
that will be configured.
D. Select Create.
E. Enter teksc (screencopy printer name) in the Printer entry field and select
the Apply button.
F. Select Printer Connection from the Display menu.
G. Select the Tektronix 240 (Screencopy) printer from the Printer Model
menu (the Tektronix 240 choice will select the Tektronix 350 printer).
H. Select the Apply button.
I. To define a text printer (that will actually be the same physical printer as
teksc), repeat Steps C through H, but enter tektext in the Printer entry field,
and select Tektronix 240 (Text) printer from the Printer Model menu
(the Tektronix 240 choice will select the Tektronix 350 printer).

2. Use the WDPF or Ovation Admin Tool to create and install the files needed by
the WDPF Printer Manager. If necessary, refer to the “Using the Install
ConfigurationonSoftwareServerFunction”section ofthe U0-8300 or R3-1105
manual.
A. Select Install Configuration on Software Server from the Function menu.
Select Log Server from the Filter scrolling list.
Select LS Log Server Configuration from the Topic scrolling list.
B. If verification of configuration is desired before installation, select the
Properties button and use its functions (as described in the “Using
the Properties Window” section of the U0-8300 or R3-1105 manual).
C. Finally, select the Install button (on the Admin Tool window) to install
the files on the Software Server.

3. Use the WDPF or Ovation Admin Tool to download the required files to the
Printer Manager target drop. If necessary, refer to the “Using the Download
Configuration to Drops Function” section of the U0-8300 or R3-1105 manual.
A. Select the Download Configuration to Drops from the Function menu.
Select the Log Server filter from the Filter scrolling list.
Select the target drop number from the Drop scrolling list (select Printer
Manager drops and all drops that use Printer Manager facilities; or simply
select all drops to ensure that the correct drops are selected).
B. Select the Download button. Typically, a Download Preview window will
appear (unless No was selected in the Properties window) indicating
the files that are ready to be downloaded to the target drop (any drop
which sends files to the LS for printing, such as MMI, LS, HSR, and EWS).
C. If the selections are correct, select the Download selected files button.
D. Select the Restart Applications on Drops button (with drops selected that
were downloaded in Step A)

1-2.3. Add Printer to Printer Manager Drop
1. Decide which drop will be the “printer host.” This will typically be the drop
containing the Printer Manager Package.
2. The /etc/hosts file on the target drop that will function as the Printer Manager
must be edited to assign the network number and the printer’s logical name(s).
Note
User must be superuser on the Printer
Manager drop to edit /etc/hosts file.
Use an ASCII text editor to edit the file (see example below):
A. Assign the unique network number (IP address) for the printer
(as determined in Step 7 in Section 1-2.1).
B. Assign teksc (screencopies) and tektext (text files) as the logical names.
Note
“teksc” and “tektext” are the recommended
logical printer names. However, any names
may be assigned.
This enables two virtual (logical) printers to be mapped to the same physical
printer. The Printer Manager will use the virtual (logical) printer names in
the ls/config/defaults file.
Example of /etc/hosts File
#
# Internet host table
#
127.0.0.1 localhost loghost
192.9.200.160 drop160
192.9.200.001 teksc tektext
Note
Verify that the software package “Log Server
Printer Manager” has been installed on the
target drop. If necessary, refer to the U0-8300
or R3-1105 manual. for information on using
the Init Tool to identify what software packages
are installed on a drop.
