It is recommended that you connect the print server directly to your

Apple computer using a cross over Ethernet Cable or connect the

Apple computer and the print server to a hub or switch, to perform

the initial configuration. The print server will attempt to obtain an IP

address from a DHCP server if one is available, otherwise the print

server will default to an IP address of 192.168.11.222. If a DHCP

server is available you will have to check the server’s logs to determine

which IP address the print server received.

Open the ‘System Preferences’ from the Apple menu and select

Network’. Set ‘Show’ to ‘Buit-in Ethernet’. Record the current

settings; they will be needed later. Set ‘Configure’ to ‘Manually’. Enter

198.168.11.223 into the ‘IP Address’ field. Enter 255.255.255.0 into

the ‘Subnet Mask’ field. Press the ‘Apply Now’ button when finished.

Open a Web Browser (Version 4.5 or later) and enter 192.168.11.222

into the ‘Address’ field. Press the Enter or Return key to continue.

The ‘Server Status’ page of the USB Print Server will open. Press the

Settings’ link to continue setting the Print Server up.
