COMMAND
171 Telnet Pass-Through Mode
To use the Telnet mode on the printer, the unit must be configured for
Ethernet use (^A1^D108) and then booted into the diagnostics mode by
turning the printer on with the print button pressed and held in. Once the
printer boots, it will start to feed media and the button may be released. The
printer auto detects the active RS232 Serial port or USB port when booting
into diagnostics mode regardless of its current port setting. Once
communication has been established, the ^D171 command may be
issued to access the XPORT setup parameters.
By selecting 0 Server, you may enter your IP address, Gateway, Net Mask,
and Telnet password.
IP Address
The IP address must be set to a unique value in your network. Default is set
to 192.168.200.3
Set Gateway IP Address
The gateway address, or router, allows communication to other LAN
segments. The gateway address should be the IP address of the router
connected to the same LAN segment as the unit. The gateway address must
be within the local network. The default is N (No), meaning the gateway
address has not been set. To set the gateway address, type Y and enter the
address.
Netmask: Number of Bits for Host Part
A netmask defines the number of bits taken from the IP address that are
assigned for the host section.
The unit prompts for the number of host bits to be entered, then calculates the
netmask, which displays in standard decimal-dot notation when the saved
parameters are displayed (for example, 8 = 255.255.255.0).
Setting of 24 = 255.0.0.0
