3.  Connect the print server to your printer(s) using the USB and/or parallel port of your printer.  For a 

USB connection, use a standard USB A (print server side) to B (printer side) cable.  For a parallel 
connection, use an IEEE 1284-compliant parallel printer cable.  

4.  Plug the print server power supply adapter into a suitable AC receptacle, and then plug the power 

supply cable into the print server.  The print server will run through a sequence of power-up 
diagnostics for a few seconds. 

ƒ  If the print server is operating properly, the power LED will illuminate continuously (refer to 

page 1-5 for detailed LED status descriptions). 

ƒ  If the power LED blinks continuously in a regular pattern, a problem exists.  If this is the case, try 

powering the print server OFF and then ON again. 

ƒ  If the problem persists, refer to the Troubleshooting section in this User’s Guide. 

5.  Connect the print server to your network through a switch or hub using a category 5 (CAT5) Ethernet 

cable.  The print server’s IP address must be configured before a network connection is available.  If 
your network offers DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), the print server will 
automatically search for a DCHP server upon power up and obtain an IP address.  If your network 
does not offer DHCP, a static (fixed) IP address must be assigned (see your system administrator for 
assistance).  In most cases, a fixed IP address is preferred because a DHCP server may not always 
assign the same IP address to the print server when the print server is powered ON.
