Introduction

The D-Link DP-G301 Print Server is a 802.11g wireless Parallel Port Print Server that can also connect to your Ethernet/Fast Ethernet network. Now you can locate parallel port printer services virtually anywhere in your home or office.

The DP-G301 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 on a PC. With one parallel port, the DP-G301 can connect to almost any printer with a parallel port.

The DP-G301 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-G301 has a built in Web-based management feature that allows users to easily configure and manage print queues through TCP/IP. The DP-G301 also supports Telnet as an alternative method to configure the unit.

The DP-G301 improves network printing services in the following ways:

The DP-G301 delegates print jobs to the connected parallel port printer. 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 Print Server without increasing the load of another workstation or server.

Because the DP-G301 is very portable and inexpensive compared to 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.

* Maximum wireless signal rate based on IEEE Standard 802.11g specifications. Actual data throughput will vary. Network conditions and environmental factors, including volume of network traffic, building materials and construction, and network overhead lower actual data throughput rate.

The DP-G301 offers extraordinary flexibility, operating with all major network operating systems and protocols:

TCP/IP

UNIX lpr/lpd

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

NetWare 5.x NDPS LPR Remote Printing

NetBEUI

Windows 2000/XP, Windows 95/98SE/ME, Microsoft LAN

Manager, IBM LAN Server

■AppleTalk

MacOS EtherTalk

Windows-based setup and administration software, PS Admin, 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 systems.

External Features

Port Connectors

The DP-G301's parallel port is located on its front panel. The parallel port can be configured using the PS Admin program or the print server's Telnet interface. (See the PS Admin User's Guide, available on the CD that came with the DP-G301, 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

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.)

Wireless Basics

D-Link wireless products are based on industry standards to provide easy-to-use and compatible high-speed wireless connectivity within your home, business or public access wireless networks. D-Link wireless products will allow you access to the data you want, when and where you want it. You will be able to enjoy the freedom that wireless networking brings.

A wireless LAN (WLAN) is a cellular computer network that transmits and receives data with radio signals instead of wires. WLANs are used increasingly in both home and office environments, and public areas such as airports, coffee shops and universities. Innovative ways to utilize WLAN technology are helping people to work and communicate more efficiently. Increased mobility and the absence of cabling and other fixed infrastructure have proven to be beneficial for many users.

Wireless users can use the same applications they use on a wired network. Wireless adapter cards used on laptop and desktop systems support the same protocols as Ethernet adapter cards.

People use wireless LAN technology for many different purposes:

Mobility - Productivity increases when people have access to data in any location within the operating range of the WLAN. Management decisions based on real-time information can significantly improve worker efficiency.

Low Implementation Costs—WLANs are easy to set up, manage, change and relocate. Networks that frequently change can benefit from WLANs ease of implementation. WLANs can operate in locations where installation of wiring may be impractical.

Installation and Network Expansion - Installing a WLAN system can be fast and easy and can eliminate the need to pull cable through walls and ceilings. Wireless technology allows the network to go where wires cannot go - even outside the home or office.

Scalability – WLANs can be configured in a variety of topologies to meet the needs of specific applications and installations. Configurations are easily changed and range from peer-to-peer networks suitable for a small number of users to larger infrastructure networks to accommodate hundreds or thousands of users, depending on the number of wireless devices deployed.

Inexpensive Solution - Wireless network devices are as competitively priced as conventional Ethernet network devices.

Wireless Basics (continued)

Standards-Based Technology

Based on the IEEE 802.11g standard, the DP-G301 is interoperable with existing compatible 2.4GHz wireless technology with data transfer speeds of up to 54Mbps when used with other D-Link AirPlus Devices.

Installation Considerations

The D-Link AirPlus G DP-G301 lets you print through your network, using a wireless connection, from virtually anywhere within its operating range. Keep in mind, however, that the number, thickness and location of walls, ceilings, or other object that the wireless signals must pass through, may limit the range. Typical ranges vary depending on the types of materials and background RF (radio frequency) noise in your home or business. The key to maximizing wireless range is to follow these basic guidelines:

  1. Keep the antenna of the DP-G301 in an upright position.
  2. Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the DP-G301 and other network devices to a minimum - each wall or ceiling can reduce your D-Link wireless product's range from 3-90 feet (1-30 meters.) Position your devices so that the number of walls or ceilings is minimized.
  3. Be aware of the direct line between network devices. A wall that is 1.5 feet thick (.5 meters), at a 45-degree angle appears to be almost 3 feet (1 meter) thick. At a 2-degree angle it looks over 42 feet (14 meters). Position devices so that the signal will travel straight through a wall or ceiling (instead of at an angle) for better reception.
  4. Building materials can impede the wireless signal - a solid metal door or aluminum studs may have a negative effect on range. Try to position wireless devices and computers with wireless adapters so that the signal passes through drywall or open doorways and not other materials.
  5. Keep your product away (at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters) from electrical devices or appliances that generate extreme RF noise.

Setting up the DP-G301

Installing the Print Server

WARNING: Configuration problems may result if the Print Server is powered up without first establishing its network connection. Follow this procedure to avoid complications at the configuration stage.

  1. Confirm proper operation of your printer before connecting the DP-G301.
  2. When you have confirmed proper operation of your printer, turn your printer power OFF.
  3. Confirm that your network is operating normally.
  4. Connect the DP-G301 to your network, using a straight-through CAT5 cable.
  5. While the printer is powered OFF, install the DP-G301 parallel port connector into the parallel port on the network printer.
  6. Switch ON your connected printer.
  7. Plug the DC power adapter into the DC 5V power socket on the rear panel of the Print Server.
  8. Plug the power adapter into a power outlet. This will supply power to the DP-G310, 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.

Power ON Self-Test

Every DP-G301 has been factory-tested to operate properly.

When the DP-G301 is powered ON, it also automatically performs a Self-Test on each of its major components. The final result of the Self-Test is signaled by the state of the LPT LED indicator following the Self-Test. Preliminary to the actual component tests, the LED indicators are tested to confirm their steady and flashing operation.

Immediately after power-up, three of the green LEDs should illuminate steadily for several seconds. Irregularity of the LED during this LED test may mean there is a problem with the LED itself.

The actual component tests immediately follow the LED tests. A normal (no fault) result is signaled by a flashing of the LPT LED, followed by a darkened LED.

If the Self-Test routine detects any component error, then following the LED tests the Self-Test will halt and the LEDs will continuously signal the error according to the following table.

Setting up Apple Talk Printing in Mac OS 9

Note: Mac OS printing with this print server supports PostScript printers only!

The AppleTalk network protocol is used with computers using the MacOS operatir system. It can be used for network communications over standard Ethernet or Fas Ethernet using the EtherTalk transport, or over a proprietary low-speed LocalTalk transport.

Your Print Server can be used for network printing to PostScript printers. You can print from any MacOS computer connected to your Ethernet network, either directly using an EtherTalk connection, or indirectly through a LocalTalk-to-EtherTalk router.

NOTE: The Chooser name of a printer connected to one of the Print Server's ports is the same as its Port Name. If you are using AppleTalk printing, you will need to make sure that every Port Name is unique among all of the network printers in

Setting up the Print Server for AppleTalk Printing

To set up your Print Server so that it can be used for AppleTalk printing:

■ Make sure the AppleTalk protocol is enabled in your Macintosh.
- Change the IP address on one of the computers on your network to 192.168, where x is any number between 11-254.
Type 192.168.0.10 into the address field of your Web browser. 192.168.0.10 is the default IP Address of the DP-G301.
- Select the Network tab and scroll to the bottom to the AppleTalk protocol section.
If your AppleTalk network is divided into AppleTalk zones, you will have to specify which zone the Print Server should be in. You should locate the Print Server in the same zone as most of the users who will be using it. If your network is not divided into zones, the AppleTalk Zone field should contain a single asterisk “*”.

Printing from Mac OS Client Workstations
