Configuring NIC

Remote Shell

A TCP/IP command that helps configure print server settings remotely. A
TCP/IP host uses this command to remotely execute a single command on
the NIC.

Example:

rsh spike list prn

This command remotely executes the npsh command

list prn

on the NIC

named

spike

.

Configuration Using a Web Browser

NIC settings can be configured over TCP/IP through a standard Web browser.
The NIC Web pages provide a handy way to access some of the commands
built into the print server. You can access online help for all HTML pages.

To access the NIC home page:

1.

Make sure the print server has an IP address and subnet mask so it is
recognizable on your TCP/IP network.

2.

Make sure your network station can successfully

ping

the NIC over the

network.

3.

Direct your Web browser to the Uniform Resource Locator (URL)

http://IPaddress

(e.g.,

http://192.75.11.9

). You will be

able to determine the exact state of the printer from the printer status
screen, as the shown in Figure 11.

Note

If a router is used, make sure a gateway value is configured.
