To create a PostScript file to set host access, use the script config-LPR provided with 
the printer’s network utilities software.  

Make sure that the printer is connected to the network.

Run the script  config-LPR:

Change (cd) to the bin subdirectory in the directory where you 
placed your printer’s network utilities. 

Type the name of the script, redirecting the output to a file:    

When prompted, enter the IP addresse(s) of the host(s) that will have access 
to the printer.  You can enter addresses for multiple hosts by separating 
them with spaces, up to a total of 256 characters. If you do not enter any 
addresses, all hosts will have access to the printer.     

Send the file named in Step 2b to the printer; type:    

You can control which hosts can access the printer through AppSocket.  The printer’s 
factory default is that all hosts have access to the printer.

There are two ways to set host access:

■

With a TCP/IP connection and a World Wide Web browser, you can use 
PhaserLink Printer Management Software.  See the next topic, “Controlling 
Host Access using PhaserLink Printer Management Software”.

■

Send the appropriate PostScript file to the printer.  See “Controlling host 
access using a PostScript utility file” on page 78.

The script accepts IP addresses that have empty fields (for example, 123..40.10).  
The script does not detect this error.  Double-check the IP addresses you enter.
