Introduction

The D-Link DP-300U Print Server is an Ethernet/USB print server that connects to your Ethernet, Fast Ethernet or USB network anywhere you wish to locate printer services. The DP-300U 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 can. With two IEEE1284 parallel ports and one 1.1 USB port, DP-300U can connect to almost any make and model printer on the market today.

The DP-300U 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-300U has a built in Web-Based management feature that allows users to easily configure and manage multiple print queues through TCP/IP. The DP-300U also supports Telnet as an alternative method to configure the unit.

The DP-300U improves network printing services in the following ways:

The DP-300U picks up the workload of managing print file traffic to its connected 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 Print Server without increasing the load of another workstation or server.

The DP-300U's parallel printer ports are IEEE1284-compliant high-speed bi-directional 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 Print Server's parallel ports can be operated at their full capacity.

Because the DP-300U is very portable and inexpensive compared to a PC-based print server, and Print Server connects to your file servers through the network, printers can be deployed to locations of maximum convenience to users.

The DP-300U 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, 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, 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 machines.

External Features

Port Connectors

The DP-300U's three printer ports are located on its rear panel. One USB and two identical parallel ports are labeled USB, LPT1 and LPT2. These printer ports are independently configurable 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-300U, 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. 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 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.)

Rear Panel Connectors

Power LPT2 LPT1 USB RJ-45

Network Cable Connector

The Print Server's rear 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 Print Server's rear panel and is labeled DC 5V.

LED Indicators

The front panel of the Print Server features five LED indicators:

D-Link 10/100M Print Server Power Link/Act USB USB LPT1 LPT2 DP-300U Power Link/Act USB LPT1 LPT2

Front Panel LED Indicators

Power

Steady or flashing green confirms that the Print Server is powered ON.

Link/Act

Steady or flashing green confirms that the Print Server has a good connection to the Ethernet or Fast Ethernet network.

The indicator blinks off briefly to indicate that the Print Server is receiving or transmitting from the network.

USB, LPT1, LPT2

These LED indicators light to show that the Print Server is transferring print data through the appropriate parallel port or USB port.

These three indicators are also used by the Print Server's Power-ON Self Test (POST) to indicate any hardware failures.

Setting up the DP-300U 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 each of the printers to be connected to the DP-300U.
  2. When you have confirmed proper operation of each printer, switch its power OFF.
  3. Confirm that your network is operating normally.
  4. Connect the DP-300U RJ-45 Connector to the network, using an Ethernet CAT5 cable.
  5. While each printer is powered OFF, install the corresponding parallel or USB printer cable to connect the printer's parallel port or USB port to the printer port of the Print Server.
    Switch on each connected printer.6.

  6. Plug the AC power adapter's DC output plug into the DC 5V power socket on the rear panel of the Print Server.

  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. 7

Power ON Self-Test

Every DP-300U has been factory-tested to operate properly.

When the DP-300U 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 USB, LPT1 and LPT2 LED indicators following the Self-Test.

Preliminary to the actual component tests, the three LED indicators are tested to confirm their steady and flashing operation.

Immediately after power-up, all five of the green LEDs should illuminate steadily for several seconds. Then the USB, LPT1 and LPT2 LEDs should flash ON simultaneously three times. Irregularity of any of the three LEDs during these LED tests may mean there is a problem with the LEDs themselves.

The actual component tests immediately follow the LED tests. A normal (no fault) result is signaled by a simultaneous flashing of these three LEDs, followed by a quiescent state with all three LEDs dark.

If the Self-Test routine traps 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. In the event of any such error signal, contact your dealer for correction of the faulty unit.

Setting up Apple Talk Printing in Mac OS 9

Note: Mac OS printing is supported for Postscript printers only!

The AppleTalk network protocol is used with computers using the MacOS operating system. It can be used for network communications over standard Ethernet or Fast 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 your AppleTalk zone. The Port Names shown in this manual are examples only.

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 192.168.0.x, 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-300U.
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 “*”.

Setting up Apple Talk Printing (continued)

For each Printer Port that will be used for AppleTalk printing, you may need to change the AppleTalk Port Settings. Press the appropriate Port Setting button to open the AppleTalk Port Configuration dialog window.

In this window you will see the Port's Chooser Name (which is the same as the Port Name). Port Names are examples only. Here you can change the Port's Settings:

Printer Type - Describes the type of printer. Most PostScript printers should use the LaserWriter type.

PostScriptLevel -

Describes whether the printer supports Level 1 PostScript or Level 2 PostScript. This information can usually be found in the printer's documentation or on the printer test page.
