Section 2 - Chapter 1 - SNMP  
Chapter 1  
Simple Network Management  
Protocol (SNMP)  
Overview  
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)  
provides network administrators with the ability to  
communicate management functions between an SNMP  
manager and an SNMP agent. An SNMP manager is a  
user program the network administrator can use to  
manage SNMP agents. The manager can retrieve Get  
information from the agent or alter Set information on  
the agent. An agent can also send an unsolicited  
message Trap to a manager when it encounters an  
unusual condition.  
AcvdMagment  
The OkiLAN 6020e is a fully functional SNMP agent  
and supports any standard SNMP management  
platform, including:  
• HP OpenView  
• Novell NMS  
• Sun SunNet Manager  
• IBM NetView  
Private MIB  
OkiLAN 6020e SNMP support has been enhanced with  
a private MIB. It is accessible via SNMP over TCP/IP  
and IPX. This private MIB contains over 150  
configuration and status variables for the network  
protocols, printer ports, network interfaceprinter  
settings, and the overall OkiLAN 6020e status. Printer  
status traps such as on-line, off-line, detached printer  
and printer error are also provided.  
The setting of certain variables causes an immediate  
firmware reset. These variables are listed in the private  
MIB under cmdReset.  
OKI OkiLAN 6020e Users Guide  
II - 3  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Section 2 - Chapter 1 - SNMP  
Note: If you attempt a reset while a job is printing, the job  
may not print successfully.  
Certain variables are critical, that is, they change a  
fundamental operating parameter of the OkiLAN  
6020e. These variables are saved by the OkiLAN  
6020e but are not actually used until it is power cycled  
or is reset. When any one of these variables is changed  
the variable genConfigDirty is automatically set to yes  
by the print server. This signifies a reset is required for  
all configuration changes to be made active. We  
recommend checking the genConfigDirty variable after  
using a MIB browser to make any configuration  
changes to the OkiLAN 6020e. If genConfigDirty is set  
to yes, then the cmdReset variable should also be set to  
yes. This will cause the OkiLAN 6020e to reset, make  
all configuration changes active on the OkiLAN 6020e  
and set both the cmdReset and genConfigDirty  
variables to no. These critical variables are listed in the  
private MIB under genConfigDirty.  
Traps  
Traps are unsolicited information from the SNMP  
agent. The OkiLAN 6020e uses a ColdStart trap to  
inform the manager it has been powered on or reset. An  
authentication failure trap is sent when the OkiLAN  
6020e receives an SNMP trap GET or SET request with  
an incorrect community name.  
The OkiLAN 6020e sends printer traps when there is a  
change in the status of the printer. If the Printer goes  
off-line, runs out of paper or is detached, the  
administrator will be notified via the OkiLAN 6020e  
traps over both UDP and IPX. Additionally, the  
OkiLAN 6020e can send traps on toner low, paper jam,  
and printer cover open, depending on the printer’s  
capabilities. The traps may be configured for specific  
destination addresses and can be configured for a  
particular printer port and/or printer trap.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Section 2 - Chapter 1 - SNMP  
In order to receive OkiNet Alert traps, the OkiLAN  
6020e must have bi-directional status enabled (it is  
disabled by default). Extended Status can be enabled  
through the OkiLAN 6020e Configuration utility  
(telnet) from the Configure Port option. You can also  
enable OkiNet Alert through OkiNet for TCP/IP or IPX  
from the Output Port file tab.  
Security  
SNMP implements a simple security system known as  
community names. Each SNMP message has a  
community name associated with the command in the  
message. SNMP allows for a Set community name, Get  
community name and a Trap community name. When  
the SNMP Agent receives a command, it checks the  
community name of the message with the community  
name of the device. If the community names do not  
match, the Agent discards the message and sends an  
authentication failure trap.  
AcvdMagment  
Both the OkiNet for TCP/IP and the IPX, and the  
OkiLAN 6020e Configuration utility (telnet) allow you  
to specify the community names and a trap destination  
IP address.

Section 2 - Chapter 4 - OkiLAN 6020e Web Configuration  
Troubleshooting  
Server Connection  
• The print server only supports two simultaneous  
HTTP connections. If your browser fails to connect  
to the print server, the browser may be trying to open  
more than two connections. Please refer to your  
browser’s Help files for information on changing the  
connection settings. Both Netscape Navigator and  
Microsoft Explorer for the Macintosh and Power PC  
will sometimes display a failure to connect message  
after being configured for only two connections.  
Should this occur, select OK to bypass the error  
message. The menu page will still be displayed and  
configuration can be completed.  
AcvdMagment  
• Quickly refreshing a page within some browsers can  
cause the browser to leave active connections open  
with the server called a hung connection. This will  
use up one of the HTTP connections, can cause  
problems connecting to the server and will slow  
down Web response time. If TCP timeout checking  
is enabled under TCP/IP configuration, the hung  
connection will timeout after the timeout period has  
expired.  
Login  
• If you forget the administrator password, restoring  
the TCP/IP protocol to factory defaults from any  
other configuration utility restores the Web admin  
name and password to default values.  
Configuration  
• Web browsers will generally cache previously  
viewed Web pages on the local machine. To view the  
most current print server information, it is a good  
idea to select the Reload or Refresh button on your  
browser instead of using the Back button.

Additional Management  
Features  
OkiNet Alert  
OKI OkiNet Alert enterprise management utility allows  
administrators to proactively manage printers by being  
immediately alerted to printing problems before they  
are encountered by users. This remote management  
utility can be configured to monitor all SNMP traps  
from a list of printers chosen by the administrator,  
without requiring HP OpenView. It runs in the  
background on any Windows-based PC and alerts the  
user with a sound or a screen flash when an error has  
occurred, and OkiNet Alert can be configured to  
respond only to the specific error conditions that are of  
concern to you. You can also launch batch files on  
given error conditions. OKI OkiNet Alert can be used  
in IPX and IP environments. Additionally, multiple  
traps can be sent to multiple destinations on the  
network.  
Enhanced Printer Status  
The OkiLAN 6020e communicates with the printer to  
monitor the current condition on the printer. This  
information can be observed in real time via the utilities  
or can be interpreted by the OkiLAN 6020e to generate  
traps to your SNMP management utility of choice: HP  
OpenView or the OKI OkiNet Alert utility.  
For bi-directional capable printer the OkiLAN 6020e  
can retrieve the printer information, such as front panel  
message, and display it through the OkiNet utilities.

Section 2 - Chapter 5 - Additional Management Features  
OkiNet for NDS  
OkiNet for NDS allows administrators to create and  
manage OKI print server objects in the NDS tree.  
OkiNet for NDS integrates into Novell’s NetWare  
Administrator, NetWareAdmin. For more information,  
see OkiNet for NDS under NetWare in this manual.  
OkiNet for TCP/IP  
(Creating Custom Views)  
OkiNet for TCP/IP allows discovery on a pure  
TCP/IP Windows environment. To assign a TCP/IP  
address assignment, simply select Discover  
Unconfigured Device and double-click. To create  
multiple views and customize the viewing environment,  
specify devices and define Filters, Sorts, Columns,  
Search Information and Refresh rates. For more  
information about OkiNet for TCP/IP, see Creating  
Custom Views under the TCP/IP section of this manual.  
AcvdMagment  
NetWare Load Balancing  
Using this feature, administrators can distribute the  
print load among several print servers. Simply assign  
the queue to the desired print ports on the selected print  
servers.  
Windows Printing  
From a Windows operating system, using TCP/IP or  
DLC protocols, the OkiNet Connect utility routes the  
print job to the appropriate printer without passing  
through a file server or print queue. This cuts down on  
network printing traffic. For more information, see the  
Windows Printing section of this manual.  
Printer Security for TCP/IP Printing  
The OkiLAN 6020e print server has a Printer Security  
for TCP/IP Printing feature which allows the printers  
to only be accessed from a specified list of IP  
addresses. This feature is accessed via TELNET option  
#9, TCP Connection Configuration.

NDS Settings  
NDS settings need to first be created and setup using  
the NWAdmin or PConsole utility. Create an NDS print  
server object. Then, create one NDS printer object per  
output port. For example, Printer 1 goes to Port 1,  
Printer 2 goes to port 2. Attach NDS print queues to the  
NDS printer objects. Once you have created NDS  
objects and queues, use the OkiNet for NetWare utility  
to configure the following fields:  
Preferred File Server - This is the file server on  
which the print server object was created.  
Preferred Tree - This is the NDS tree on which the  
NDS print server object was created.  
Print Server Name - The fully qualified (canonical)  
name of the NDS print server object that was  
created. The Print Server Name is case sensitive.  
Example:  
cn=marketinglj.ou=marketing.o=companyname  
where cn is the Common Name of the leaf object, ou is  
the Organizational Unit name, and o is the  
Organizational name.

Chapter 3  
OkiNet for NDS  
Overview  
OkiNet for NDS is a Dynamic Link Library (DLL)  
which allows users to create and manage OKI print  
server objects in the NDS tree. OkiNet for NDS  
integrates into Novell’s NetWare Administrator, a  
Windows-based utility that allows users to view and  
manage their NetWare 4.x NDS tree. Once OkiNet for  
NDS is integrated into NetWare Administrator, users  
can manage OKI devices with the same utility used to  
manage other network objects such as printers and  
queues.  
The OkiLAN 6020e supports NetWare NDS using  
Novell Embedded Systems Technology, also known as  
NEST.  
OkiNet for NDS can be installed to support Novell  
NetWare version 4.1 or 4.11 and for operating systems  
running Windows 3.x, Windows 95/98, and Windows  
NT/2000. If you have multiple versions of Windows  
operating systems to service, you can install OkiNet for  
NDS for each.  
OkiNet for NDS supports four different versions of  
NWAdmin.  
• OkiNet for NDS installation for NetWare version 4.1  
(one version of NWAdmin) requires a single  
installation which will work for all platforms  
including Windows 3.x. Windows 95/98, and  
Windows NT/2000.  
• The OkiNet for NDS installation for NetWare  
version 4.11 requires a separate installation for each  
of the three platforms: Windows 3.x, Windows 95/  
98, and Windows NT/2000 (three separate versions  
of NWAdmin).

Using the OkiLAN 6020e in NDPS  
(NetWare 4.x and 5.1)  
Introduction  
NovellDistributed Print Services(NDPS) is Novell’s new  
printing architecture for use with NetWare versions 4.x and 5.1. To  
use the OkiLAN 6020e in NDPS, you must add the OKI printer  
driver(s) to the NDPS Broker.  
Requirements:  
IP Address on the file server  
IP address on the print server (NetWare-only print servers will  
not work)  
The client must also run the most current version of the  
NetWare client to get the NDPS objects.  
Note: The client printing to the printer does not need an IP address.  
Adding the OKI Printer Driver Using the NDPS  
aer  
Broker  
Printer drivers cannot be installed to the Resource Management  
Service from multiple floppy disks. If a printer driver is shipped on  
more than one disk, copy the files to a directory on a hard drive or  
network drive and install the driver from there. Any problems in  
adding the driver should be addressed to the OKI Customer Service  
Center.

Chapter 1  
Introduction  
Overview  
This section contains instructions and information on  
how to configure your OkiLAN 6020e. You will also be  
instructed on how to set up your host computers to print  
to the OkiLAN 6020e using the TCP/IP protocol.  
OkiLAN 6020e supports TCP/IP methods for printing:  
• Remote Line Printer Daemon (LPD)  
• File Transfer Protocol (FTP)  
• Printing directly through a TCP port (Raw Port  
Printing)  
Additionally, if the DHCP protocol is enabled as a  
default, the print server may be accessed through an  
ordinary Internet Web browser, such as Netscape  
Navigator, or by using TELNET. See Chapters 5 and 6  
in this section.  
Software Requirements  
The OkiLAN 6020e may be configured for TCP/IP  
using the OkiNet for TCP/IP utility, or from a computer  
supporting the OkiNet for NetWare utility, Banyan  
VINES OkiNet for VINES utility (may apply to other  
OkiLAN print server models), OR telnet and one of the  
following:  
• Manual arp table entry and ping  
• Static route entry using route add command  
T/CIP  
• DHCP  
• RARP  
• BOOTP

Section 4 - Chapter 1 - Introduction  
Network Preparation  
You should be familiar with network administration  
as well as the physical setup and operation of your  
network.  
• Advise users of possible disruption during  
installation.  
• Make sure the serial number and Ethernet address of  
your OkiLAN 6020e are available.  
• Assign an IP address and a hostname (alias) to the  
OkiLAN 6020e.  
Use the network name service or the “/etc/hosts” file  
to add the OkiLAN 6020e to the network.  
Before You Start  
Before running OkiNet for TCP/IP, you must do the  
following:  
• Install the OkiLAN 6020e hardware and connect the  
cabling. Instructions for hardware installation are  
found in Section I of this manual.  
• Write down the serial number and Ethernet address  
of your OkiLAN 6020e. (These numbers are located  
on the OkiLAN 6020e unit.)  
• Install OkiNet for TCP/IP-see Section I.  
Overview of TCP/IP Configuration  
• Assign an IP address for the OkiLAN 6020e  
• Configure the OkiLAN 6020e network information  
• Configure hosts for printing to the OkiLAN 6020e  
• Test print (optional)

Section 4 - Chapter 2 - Configuring the OkiLAN 6020e  
Chapter 2  
Configuring the OkiLAN 6020e  
Choosing an IP Address  
Every TCP/IP network device is required to have a  
unique IP address. The IP address can be permanently  
stored using one of the following:  
• OKI OkiNet management utilities for TCP/IP, Novell  
NetWare or Banyan VINES (may apply to other  
OkiLAN print server models)  
• OkiLAN 6020e Configuration utility via telnet.  
Note: The OkiNet utilities are the easiest way to  
assign an IP address.  
Using factory default settings, the OkiLAN 6020e first  
attempts to determine its IP address (flashing rapid  
green) using DHCP, RARP, BOOTP or Gleaning. If the  
OkiLAN 6020e has not resolved its IP address after 2  
minutes, it defaults to 198.102.102.254. (This IP  
address should be used only temporarily for  
configuration purposes.)  
To choose an IP address:  
1. Select an IP address and hostname for the OkiLAN  
6020e.  
Example: 192.168.42.50 OkiLAN 6020e_name  
2. Add the name and IP address to the “/etc/hosts” file  
of each host that will access the OkiLAN 6020e. Or,  
if your network uses a name service, add the host  
name and IP address to the name server.  
T/CIP  
Most TCP/IP networks use the Network Information  
Service (NIS), Domain Name Service (DNS) or the “/  
etc/hosts” database. See your network documentation  
for instructions.

Section 4 - Chapter 2 - Configuring the OkiLAN 6020e  
Configuring the OkiLAN 6020e  
There are four utilities available to configure the  
OkiLAN 6020e for TCP/IP printing. You may use  
whichever utility is best suited for your needs.  
OkiNet for TCP/IP - Windows TCP/IP print  
manager utility. See Chapter 3 of this section for  
more information.  
OkiLAN 6020e Configuration Utility - This utility is  
accessed via telnet. See Chapter 6 of this section for  
more information.  
In order to configure the OkiLAN 6020e via telnet,  
you must first assign an IP address to the OkiLAN  
6020e and verify communication by pinging the  
device.  
OkiNet for NetWare - This windows utility must be  
run from a Novell NetWare client. See Section III of  
this manual for specific information.  
OkiNet for VINES (VPMAN) Utility - This  
Windows utility must be run from a Banyan VINES  
client (may apply to other OkiLAN print server  
models).  
Assigning the IP Address  
There are eight different methods for assigning an IP  
address to the OkiLAN 6020e: Gleaning, Static Route  
Entry, DHCP, RARP, BOOTP and using the OkiNet or  
OkiNet for VINES utilities. Gleaning, Static Route  
Entry and RARP require the OkiLAN 6020e and the  
host to be on the same subnet. DHCP and BOOTP also  
have this restriction unless the network routers are  
configured to pass these requests. The OkiNet and  
OkiNet for VINES utilities (may apply to other  
OkiLAN print server models) do not have this  
restriction.

Section 4 - Chapter 2 - Configuring the OkiLAN 6020e  
Gleaning  
If an IP address has not been permanently assigned  
when the OkiLAN 6020e is powered on or reset, it will  
look for a ping packet on the network. If the OkiLAN  
6020e receives a ping packet within two minutes, it will  
accept the IP address in the ping packet as its own  
address.  
To use Gleaning, you must have Windows 95/98,  
Windows NT/2000, or super-user privileges on a UNIX  
system.  
1. Add an entry in the ARP table that assigns an IP  
address to the hardware address of the OkiLAN  
6020e. To do this, use the arp command.  
arp -s <ip_address><hardware_address> temp  
UNIX Example:  
arp -s 192.168.42.24 00:02:16:00:00:01 temp  
Windows 95/98, Windows NT/2000 Example:  
arp -s 192.168.42.24 00-02-16-00-00-01  
2. Start a continuous ping to the OkiLAN 6020e.  
ping <ip_address>  
Example: ping 192.168.42.24  
On some systems, this may require an additional  
parameter. Some implementations of ping only send  
out one ping packet which could get lost in transit.  
Check your system documentation for more  
information.  
3. Connect power to the OkiLAN 6020e.  
The OkiLAN 6020e will glean its IP address from  
the ping packet. This IP address will remain in effect  
until the OkiLAN 6020e is powered off or reset.  
Therefore, a permanent IP address should be  
assigned by running the OkiNet for TCP/IP utility or  
via telnet.

Section 4 - Chapter 2 - Configuring the OkiLAN 6020e  
DHCP  
The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)  
provides a framework for passing configuration  
information to hosts on a TCP/IP network in a client/  
server fashion. DHCP is based on the Bootstrap  
Protocol (BOOTP), adding the capability of automatic  
allocation of reusable network addresses and additional  
configuration options. DHCP uses the same packet  
structure as BOOTP so current BOOTP relay agents  
will also interact with DHCP messages.  
DHCP offers dynamic IP address allocation. When a  
client receives an IP address, it also receives a lease (an  
amount of time the host may use the address). The  
lease times vary from 1 hour to 100 years, or may be  
infinite. When the lease expires, the host must stop  
using the address. DHCP may also be used like  
BOOTP, with a certain IP address always assigned to a  
certain device. Depending on the server, both methods  
may be used at the same time.  
If the OkiLAN 6020e does not find a DHCP server  
after two minutes, it will timeout and assume a default  
address of 198.102.102.254. This follows current  
BOOTP and RARP behavior.  
If the OkiLAN 6020e receives multiple responses, it  
will choose the first one.  
When the OkiLAN 6020e receives an address, it sends  
an ARP message once every second for five seconds on  
the offered address to determine if another device is  
using it. If the OkiLAN 6020e finds another device is  
using the address, it will refuse the address and start  
looking for a new address.

Section 4 - Chapter 2 - Configuring the OkiLAN 6020e  
Static Route Entry  
When the OkiLAN 6020e is powered on or reset and  
no permanent IP address has been assigned, it will  
attempt to obtain an IP address through Gleaning,  
RARP, BOOTP or DHCP. If the OkiLAN 6020e has not  
determined its IP address after two minutes, the IP  
address will default to 198.102.102.254. This IP  
address should only be used temporarily to configure a  
new, permanent IP address. To change to a permanent  
IP address, the route add command is used to place the  
OkiLAN 6020e product’s default IP address into the  
workstation’s network routing table. To use the route  
command, you must have Windows 95/98, Windows  
NT/2000 or super-user privileges under UNIX. The  
syntax for this command is:  
route add 198.102.102.254 “IP address of the  
workstation” 0  
Note: The zero (0) placed at the end of the route add  
command shown above is optional.  
The Static Route method only works if the host from  
which you are telneting is on the same subnet as the  
OkiLAN 6020e. Once the route add command has been  
issued, telnet will allow you to change and/or make the  
IP address permanent. After changing the IP address to  
its permanent address, the routing table entry should be  
deleted using route delete.  
For more information, consult your system  
documentation for the route command.  
T/CIP  
RARP or BOOTP  
If an IP address has not been permanently assigned, the  
OkiLAN 6020e will use Reverse Address Resolution  
Protocol (RARP) or Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP). The  
OkiLAN 6020e will broadcast requests for its IP  
address to both RARP and BOOTP servers. A RARP or  
BOOTP server will respond by searching a  
configuration file that maps the Ethernet hardware  
addresses of devices on the network to their respective  
IP addresses. If a match is found, the server’s response  
will include the IP address of the device.

Section 4 - Chapter 2 - Configuring the OkiLAN 6020e  
Most UNIX operating systems support either the RARP  
or BOOTP protocol. To find out which protocol your  
operating system supports, request the manual page for  
the protocol’s daemon (e.g. man bootpd or man rarpd),  
or see your network manuals. Both protocols require  
that you add the product’s network hardware address  
and IP address to a configuration file. See your network  
documentation for instructions or refer to Appendix B,  
Application Considerations.  
Note: An IP address received from a RARP or  
BOOTP server is not permanently programmed  
into the OkiLAN 6020e. Therefore, if you  
choose this method of assigning the IP address,  
the RARP or BOOTP server must be available  
every time the OkiLAN 6020e is powered on  
or reset. The IP address can be stored  
permanently using telnet, OkiNet for TCP/IP,  
OkiNet for NetWare or the OkiNet for VINES  
utility (may apply to other OkiLAN print server  
models).  
A Winsock compliant BOOTP server is located on the  
OkiNet for TCP/IP diskette. This has been provided for  
users who do not have UNIX machines.  
Other Utilities  
The IP address can also be set from Novell NetWare  
using the OkiNet for NetWare utility or through the  
Banyan VINES OkiNet for VINES utility (may apply  
to other OkiLAN print server models).  
Note: The OkiNet for NetWare and OkiNet for  
VINES utilities can only be used if Novell  
NetWare or Banyan VINES are installed on  
your network respectively (may apply to other  
OkiLAN print server models).

TCP/IP Configuration and  
Printing  
Overview  
The OkiLAN 6020e supports printing from computers  
using TCP/IP and any of the following printing  
protocols:  
• Line Printer Redirect/Line Printer Daemon (lpr/lpd)  
• File Transfer Protocol (FTP)  
• Printing directly through a TCP port (Raw Port  
Printing)  
This chapter presents basic instructions on how to  
configure your computer to print using Remote LPD  
and FTP. Specific instructions for several popular  
computer systems have been documented in Appendix  
B, Application Considerations. If your specific system  
is not addressed in this appendix, follow the  
instructions outlined below. You should also refer to  
your operating system or computer manual for  
information about configuring remote network printing.  
If you are still unable to configure your computer  
system to print to the OkiLAN 6020e, contact Oki Data

Section 4 - Chapter 3 - TCP/IP Configuration and Printing  
Configuring for TCP/IP Network  
Printing  
Most computers that support TCP/IP network printing  
use the Remote Line Printer Daemon (LPD) protocol.  
This protocol was originally part of the Berkeley  
Software Distribution (BSD) version of the UNIX  
operating system. Remote LPD was quickly adopted as  
a de facto standard. As a result, Remote LPD is now  
supported by most versions of the UNIX operating  
system and by many TCP/IP packages available for  
other operating systems. Configuration of Remote LPD  
printing varies among vendors who supply TCP/IP.  
You may also use the File Transfer Protocol (FTP) for  
printing. Typically FTP is used to transfer files between  
computers on a TCP/IP network. The OkiLAN 6020e  
simply prints the files it receives from FTP.  
Remote Print Queue Name  
The Remote Print Queue Name determines which  
printer port will service the print job. The Remote Print  
Queue Name may also be used to specify ASCII print  
jobs. Both Remote LPD and FTP have provisions for  
specifying a Remote Print Queue Name.  
The OkiLAN 6020e looks at the last character of the  
Remote Print Queue Name to determine which printer  
port will service the print job. All Remote Print Queue  
Names should end with the number 1, 2, 3 or 4. If a  
number is not specified, the OkiLAN 6020e will use  
printer port 1.  
T/CIP  
The OkiLAN 6020e is designed to handle many  
different types of printers and print data. Typically you  
will select the printer type for your printer in telnet  
under the Configure Port option. However, if you are  
connecting to an ASCII printer, you may wish to use  
the OkiLAN 6020e to format the print data for your  
printer.

Section 4 - Chapter 3 - TCP/IP Configuration and Printing  
The OkiLAN 6020e will parse the remote queue name  
and search for certain characters at the end which tell  
how to convert an ASCII print job. The print server  
uses FF, LF and NF as ASCII conversion specifiers and  
uses the last number as an output port. The FF, LF and  
NF specifiers must be the last letters in the queue name.  
Example: LaserWriterFF, SalesColorLaserNF,  
ChemDeptLF2  
FF  
Use the FF suffix at the end of the Remote Print  
Queue Name, before the port number.  
Example: queueFF2  
If the last character in the print job is not a form  
feed, the OkiLAN 6020e appends a form feed.  
This form feed prompts the printer to print any  
partial page at the end of the job.  
LF  
Use the LF suffix at the end of the Remote Print  
Queue Name, before the port number.  
Example: queueLF2  
In addition to the form feed described above,  
the OkiLAN 6020e inserts a carriage-return  
character into the print job immediately before  
each line-feed character. This feature is useful  
for printing UNIX text files.  
NF  
Use the NF suffix at the end of the Remote Print  
Queue Name, before the port number.  
Example: queueNF2  
The OkiLAN 6020e inserts a carriage-return  
character into the print job immediately before  
each line-feed character. This feature is useful  
for printing UNIX text files.  
This option differs from LF in that form feed is  
not added to the end of jobs.

Section 4 - Chapter 3 - TCP/IP Configuration and Printing  
Configuring a BSD-Style Print Queue  
For remote BSD-Style LPD printing, add the OkiLAN  
6020e as a remote printer in the “/etc/printcap”  
database to each host printing to the OkiLAN 6020e.  
You can add PRINTCAP options as needed. If you are  
unfamiliar with PRINTCAP, consult your local  
documentation.  
The entry should be similar to the following:  
local_print_queue_name|[printer_model_and_  
manufacturer]:\:lp=:mx#0:rm=OkiLAN  
6020e_name:\:rp=remote_print_queue_name:\  
:sd=path_to_spool_directory:lf=just  
log_file_name  
local_print_queue_name  
The local_print_queue_name defines the name of the  
printcap entry. It is used by the lpr/lpd utilities to  
specify which printcap entry is being referenced.  
Additional printcap entries can be added as needed for  
different queue types. Each entry must have a unique  
local_print_queue_name and a different spool directory  
to work properly. When you are ready to print, use the  
local_print_queue_name that matches the data type of  
the file to be printed.  
OkiLAN 6020e_name  
This is the name (alias) of the OkiLAN 6020e. This  
must be the same name as entered in the /etc/hosts file  
or your NIS or DNS system. An IP address may also be  
used here.  
T/CIP  
remote_print_queue_name  
The remote_print_queue_name entry determines the  
OkiLAN 6020e port where the print job will be printed  
and optionally specifies ASCII printing.  
path_to_spool_directory  
This is the path to a directory where the print jobs will  
be spooled for this queue. You must create a unique  
spool directory for each printcap entry.

Section 4 - Chapter 3 - TCP/IP Configuration and Printing  
log_file_name  
This is the path to a file where error information from  
the lpd will be logged.  
Example: If you are printing to an ASCII printer that  
requires a carriage return/line feed, you may need two  
separate printcap entries: one entry for print jobs which  
terminate lines with a carriage return/line feed, and  
another entry for print jobs which terminate lines with a  
line feed only. Your printcap entries might look like the  
following:  
ascii_files|form.feed.Queue_on_Port_2:\  
:lp=:mx#0:rm=pserver1:rp=MYQUEUEFF2:\  
:sd=/usr/spool/myqueueff2:\  
:lf=/usr/spool/myqueueff2/queue.log  
asciilf_files|line.feed.Queue_on_Port_2:\  
:lp=:mx#0:rm=pserver1:rp=MYQUEUELF2:\  
:sd=/usr/spool/myqueuelf2:\  
:lf=/usr/spool/myqueuelf2/queue.log  
Note: Each printcap entry must have a different spool  
directory to work properly.  
Remote LPD Printing  
The way print jobs are queued to a Remote LPD system  
varies among the vendors that support TCP/IP. UNIX  
systems that are BSD-based typically use the lpr  
program to submit print jobs. Other UNIX systems may  
use the lp program to submit print jobs. PC-based TCP/  
IP packages often provide a command line lpr program  
and a utility to redirect the output of an LPT port to a  
Remote LPD system.  
Consult your system administrator or software vendor  
for assistance troubleshooting LPD.

Note: The Remote LPD implementation of the  
OkiLAN 6020e does not support any UNIX  
LPD input or output filters or the direct  
printing of banner pages. It is possible to  
configure some UNIX systems so that banner  
pages and input and output filters will be  
generated at the UNIX host and then sent to the  
OkiLAN 6020e. (Refer to Appendix B,  
Application Considerations.)  
FTP Printing  
FTP is a command line program used to transfer files  
between computers. FTP provides commands for  
opening a connection to another computer, specifying  
the data type of any transfers, and sending and  
receiving files. The OkiLAN 6020e supports a subset  
of the FTP command set. This subset allows the FTP  
user to open a connection to the OkiLAN 6020e,  
specify a file transfer data type and send print files to a  
Remote Print Queue Name on the OkiLAN 6020e.  
The OkiLAN 6020e recognizes the following FTP  
commands:  
PUT  
Print a single file  
The PUT command sends the file to  
the OkiLAN 6020e. The first  
parameter of the PUT command is the  
name of the local file to PUT. The  
second parameter of the PUT  
command is the name of the file for the  
remote PC. In order to print the file,  
this second parameter must be a  
Remote Print Queue Name. If you do  
not specify the second parameter, FTP  
sets the remote file name to the local  
file name. This may produce  
T/CIP  
undesirable printing results.  
SEND  
Treated the same as PUT.  
MPUT  
Print multiple files.

OkiLAN 6020e print servers will allow one FTP  
connection. If more FTP connections are attempted, the  
OkiLAN 6020e will reject the connection until one of  
the other FTP connections is closed. When an FTP  
connection is rejected, the FTP program will typically  
display a message like the following:  
$ ftp<CR>  
ftp> open OkiLAN 6020e_name<CR>  
connection refused  
ftp>  
Note: Specifying binary mode is important for all  
jobs. Most FTP implementations default to  
ASCII mode. This may cause unexpected or

Specify Print Server IP Address (Option 3)  
This option allows you to select the method the  
OkiLAN 6020e uses to obtain its IP address or to set a  
permanent IP address. If the OkiLAN 6020e has been  
configured to use a permanent IP address, a DHCP,  
RARP or BOOTP server does not need to be available  
when the OkiLAN 6020e is powered on.  
If you change the IP address, the change will remain  
undetected until the OkiLAN 6020e is reset or is  
powered off and on.  
Remember, when choosing a permanent IP address:  
• The IP address must follow the format  
XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX, where each XXX is a  
number between 0 and 255.  
• If you select an invalid IP address you may not be  
able to access the OkiLAN 6020e.  
You can also use OkiNet for TCP/IP, OkiNet for  
NetWare or the Banyan VINES OkiNet for VINES  
utilities (may apply to other OkiLAN print server  
models) to set a permanent IP address.  
Note: If you select an invalid IP address you may not  
be able to access the OkiLAN 6020e. Use this  
option with care!  
Specify the Subnet Mask for Your Network  
(Option 4)  
If your network environment includes subnets, you will  
want to set the subnet mask.  
The subnet mask must follow the format  
XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX, where each XXX is a number  
between 0 and 255.  
T/CIP  
The default subnet mask is 0.0.0.0. The OkiLAN 6020e  
interprets a subnet mask of 0.0.0.0 or 255.255.255.255  
as no subnet mask specified.  
If you change the subnet mask, the change will remain  
undetected until the OkiLAN 6020e is reset or is power  
cycled.

Identify Default Gateway IP Address (Option 5)  
If your local network is attached to other networks, you  
must specify the address of your default gateway.  
Whenever packets need to be sent to another network,  
the default gateway is used.  
The gateway address must follow the format  
XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX, where each XXX is a number  
between 0 and 255.  
When the default gateway is changed, it will remain  
undetected until the OkiLAN 6020e is reset or is power  
cycled.  
Note: If you select an invalid default gateway or the  
default gateway goes down, the OkiLAN  
6020e may not be able to communicate with

Restore to Factory Default Configuration (Option 9)  
This option automatically restores the OkiLAN 6020e  
to its original factory defaults. Be aware that when you  
restore the OkiLAN 6020e to the original factory  
default settings, only the TCP/IP protocol and output  
port information is restored and your TCP/IP password  
and IP address are erased.  
CAUTION: Make sure that no print jobs are active  
when you select Restore to Factory Defaults.  
Performing this operation will restore parameters for  
the TCP/IP protocol to factory defaults. If you reset  
the OkiLAN 6020e while a job is printing, the job may  
not print successfully.

Main Status Indicator  
Upon power-up, the main status indicator flashes  
orange. It changes to green when the OkiLAN 6020e  
passes self-test. The indicator stays orange if the  
OkiLAN 6020e fails self-test. If the indicator turns  
solid orange due to an error, a configuration sheet will  
be printed automatically. Check the error message  
reported on the configuration sheet.  
Restoring the OkiLAN 6020e to  
Factory Defaults  
In most cases, the best way to restore the OkiLAN  
6020e to factory defaults is via telnet. However, if you  
are unable to connect to the device because of a  
configuration error, use the following method which  
does not require a network connection.  
To restore the OkiLAN 6020e to factory defaults,  
complete the following steps:  
1. Power down the OkiLAN 6020e.  
2. While holding in the Print Configuration Sheet  
Test button, power up the OkiLAN 6020e. Hold the  
button until the status indicator turns solid green.  
3. Power cycle the OkiLAN 6020e. It will have  
restored itself to defaults.

Unable to Assign IP Address  
Gleaning  
If you ping the device and are not getting a response,  
the glean is not working. Check the following possible  
problems:  
• Verify the ARP table contains the correct  
hardware and IP address by running the ‘arp -a’  
command.  
• If you are getting a response, but the OkiLAN  
6020e LED is still blinking green, power down  
the print server and try the ping again. There  
might be a different device answering to the ping.  
• Verify the OkiLAN 6020e is on the same subnet  
as the computer running the ping.  
• The glean will not work if the OkiLAN 6020e has  
already defaulted to an IP address two minutes  
after power up. The LED will turn solid green and  
the device will print a configuration page. Power  
cycle the device and try the glean again.  
RARP or BOOTP  
If you are using a BOOTP or RARP server and the  
OkiLAN 6020e is not getting an IP address, check the  
following:  
• Verify the BOOTP/RARP configuration files are  
correctly set up (“/etc/ethers” and “/etc/hosts” for  
RARP and “/etc/bootptab” for BOOTP). Verify  
the files have the correct hardware address of the  
OkiLAN 6020e. If using RARP, check that the  
hostnames are the same between the “/etc/ethers”  
and “/etc/hosts” files.

UNIX BOOTP  
If you are running UNIX, try the following methods  
with the BOOTP server (check the documentation for  
your particular UNIX flavor).  
• Verify the BOOTP server has reread the “/etc/  
bootptab” file when the new entry was added. If  
the BOOTP server was running when you added  
the new entries, the server might not have reread  
the new bootptab file. Try sending the SIGHUP  
signal to the running BOOTP server. For example,  
kill -HUP <process id of bootpd> tells it to reread  
“/etc/bootptab”. Most BOOTP servers support this  
option. Check your local BOOTP documentation.  
If this does not work, restart the BOOTP server  
(kill and restart the process).  
• Some BOOTP servers will write their internal  
bootptab tables to a file when they receive a  
SIGUSR1 signal. You can check this file to verify  
the hardware and IP address are correct. You can  
use the kill command to send signals. For  
example, kill -USR1 <process id of bootpd>.  
Check your documentation for more information.  
• Check the system’s syslog file. Some BOOTP  
servers will write error messages into the syslog  
file.  
Example:  
Sep 6 14:38:43 bootpd[17565]: hardware  
address not found: 004068175042  
This message appears when the BOOTP server  
received a request from a device not in its internal  
bootptab tables.

Static Route Entry  
If the OkiLAN 6020e has printed a configuration page  
showing the default address, but it cannot be reached  
through telnet, check the following:  
• Display the host’s routing tables with the ‘netstat -  
r’ command. Verify the route has been set  
correctly.  
• If the route is set correctly, try pinging the device.  
• Verify the OkiLAN 6020e is on the same subnet  
as the host from which you are telneting. As a  
drastic measure, try creating an isolated subnet  
with your host and the OkiLAN 6020e. If you are  
using 10BASE2, run the cable directly from the  
host to the OkiLAN 6020e. If using 10/100BASE-T  
cabling, connect the host to the OkiLAN 6020e  
through a hub not connected to any other host.  
• If the static route has been set up and can telnet to  
the OkiLAN 6020e, but your changes do not seem  
to be saved, check the host’s routing tables. You  
might have telneted to a different OkiLAN 6020e  
than the one you intended. While in telnet, select  
the second menu option, Show Network/Printer  
Information. The hardware address and serial  
number are displayed. Verify they are the same as  
the unit you are configuring.  
• Turn off the OkiLAN 6020e you want to  
configure. Run telnet again. If you reach a  
different device, there is an IP address conflict.  
• If you are able to ping to the OkiLAN 6020e, but  
are unable to telnet, the IP address is probably  
being shared with another device that does not  
support telnet.

Printing a Configuration Page  
If the status indicator turns solid orange due to an error  
and no configuration page is printed, your printer may  
be configured for PostScript operation. If so, you must  
re-configure your printer for standard ASCII mode so  
that the configuration page can be printed.  
If you do not know the configuration of the OkiLAN  
6020e or you think the configuration has been changed,  
use the following method for printing a configuration  
page:  
• With the network cable detached, attach the  
OkiLAN 6020e to a printer and power cycle the  
print server. When the OkiLAN 6020e powers up,  
it will detect the detached network cable and print  
a configuration sheet. If no configuration sheet is  
printed and the indicator has turned green, check  
the printer and verify it is ready to print. If you  
are using boot protocols (RARP or BOOTP) to  
assign the IP address, the IP address will be listed  
as Using network protocol (0.0.0.0) on the  
configuration page.  
Unable to Print  
LPR/LP  
• If the indicator blinks green, the OkiLAN 6020e  
is receiving data. If nothing is actually printing,  
check the printer settings. For example, if you are  
using a PostScript printer, verify the OkiLAN  
6020e is also set to PostScript.  
• Try pinging the OkiLAN 6020e by its IP address  
(not the hostname). This will verify the unit is  
functioning on the network.  
• If the ping succeeds, try ftping a test file to the  
print server. If the ping fails, you might have a  
configuration problem with the OkiLAN 6020e  
(the IP address or gateway address might be  
incorrect, etc.).

Section 4 - Appendix B - Application Considerations  
Assigning the OkiLAN 6020e IP  
Address with BOOTP  
BOOTP is an acronym for BOOTStrap Protocol.  
Every TCP/IP network device is required to have a  
unique 32-bit IP address assigned to it. TCP/IP network  
devices will have both an IP address and a 48 bit  
Ethernet/Token-Ring (network hardware) address.  
Ethernet addresses usually cannot be configured and  
are hard coded by the manufacturer of the device.  
BOOTP is a protocol used by devices that know their  
network hardware address, but do not know their IP  
address. When powering up on a network, a device that  
uses BOOTP will broadcast its network hardware  
address in a BOOT request packet. A BOOTP server  
(which may be a UNIX workstation) will respond with  
an IP address. The device will then know its IP address  
and use this address to perform subsequent TCP/IP  
transactions.  
Note: Once the OkiLAN 6020e has been assigned an  
IP address, the OkiLAN 6020e configuration  
utility (which is run by accessing the OkiLAN  
6020e using telnet) or OkiNet for TCP/IP will  
allow you to change and/or make the IP  
address permanent. This means that a BOOTP  
server needs to be available only during  
installation of the OkiLAN 6020e.  
Address Formats  
Network hardware addresses are 48-bits and are  
expressed in 6 bytes (hexadecimal format) usually  
separated by colons. Each hexadecimal byte has a  
range from 00 to FF.

Section 4 - Appendix B - Application Considerations  
A name can be arbitrarily assigned to any device on a  
network. The following examples use the name  
OKIPRINTER. Remember that this name is arbitrary; a  
customer can assign any name they wish.  
/etc/bootptab: The “/etc/bootptab” file has entries  
where each entry maps a network  
hardware address to an IP address.  
Example:  
OKIPRINTER:\  
ht=ether:\  
ha=0040681750A4:\  
ip=192.168.42.55  
The ht signifies hardware type. For the OkiLAN 6020e,  
it will always be ether for an Ethernet device and token  
for a Token-Ring device. The ha signifies the network  
hardware address. For BOOTP, the network hardware  
address must be represented without the colons  
between each byte. The ip part of the entry is where the  
IP address is specified. There are several other  
parameters that can be specified in a bootptab entry.  
However, the three parameters shown here are the only  
ones required for OkiLAN 6020e installation.  
The following sequence of events occurs during the  
power up of the OkiLAN 6020e using BOOTP.  
1. An OkiLAN 6020e powers up but does not know its  
IP address. (It does know its network hardware  
address.)  
2. The OkiLAN 6020e sends out a BOOTP request  
packet with its network hardware address. For this  
example, the network hardware address is  
00:40:68:17:50:A4.  
3. The bootpd daemon running on a BOOTP server  
(which in this example is a UNIX workstation) sees  
the BOOTP request along with the network  
hardware address. It looks up the network hardware  
address in the “/etc/bootptab” file. The bootpd  
daemon finds the associated IP address of the device  
in the bootptab file.  
IV - 58

Section 4 - Appendix B - Application Considerations  
4. The bootpd daemon transmits a response to the  
OkiLAN 6020e with the IP address 192.168.42.55.  
The OkiLAN 6020e will use this IP address for all  
subsequent transmissions.  
For these steps to work properly, at least one BOOTP  
daemon (bootpd) must be running on the BOOTP  
server. To test whether a BOOTP daemon is running on  
the BOOTP server, use the ps command with the show  
all process option within fifteen minutes of an  
attempted BOOTP request. Unfortunately, the ps  
options differ from one UNIX workstation to another.  
Perform a man ps at the UNIX prompt to consult a  
manual page on the ps command for a particular  
workstation. If bootpd is not running on a workstation,  
type man bootpd at the UNIX prompt to consult a  
manual page on the BOOTP daemon and how to start  
it.  
Limitations  
Often TCP/IP networks are divided into subnets.  
BOOTP does not work across subnets. When installing  
an OkiLAN 6020e, make sure the following criteria are  
met for BOOTP to work properly.  
• Both the BOOTP server and the OkiLAN 6020e  
are physically attached to the same subnet.  
• The IP address assigned to the OkiLAN 6020e  
and the IP address of the BOOTP server belong to  
the same subnet.  
OR  
Your router(s) are configured to forward BOOTP  
packets between the OkiLAN 6020e’s subnet and  
the subnet of the host running the BOOTP server.

Section 4 - Appendix B - Application Considerations  
Configuring the OkiLAN 6020e IP  
Address with RARP  
RARP is an acronym for Reverse Address Resolution  
Protocol. Every TCP/IP network device must have a  
unique 32-bit IP address. TCP/IP network devices will  
have both an IP address and a 48-bit Ethernet (network  
hardware) address. Ethernet addresses usually cannot  
be configured and are hard coded by the manufacturer  
of the device. RARP is a protocol used by devices that  
know their network hardware address, but do not know  
their IP address. When powering up on a network, a  
device that uses RARP will broadcast its network  
hardware address in a RARP request message. A RARP  
server (which may be a UNIX workstation) will  
respond with an IP address. The device will then know  
its IP address and use this address to perform  
subsequent TCP/IP transactions.  
Note: Once the OkiLAN 6020e has been assigned an  
IP address, the OkiLAN 6020e configuration  
utility (which is accessed by telneting to the  
OkiLAN 6020e) or OkiNet for TCP/IP will  
allow you to change and/or make the IP  
address permanent. This means that a RARP  
server needs to be available only during  
installation of the OkiLAN 6020e.  
Address Formats  
Network hardware addresses are 48-bits and are  
expressed in 6 bytes in hexadecimal format usually  
separated by colons. Each hexadecimal byte has a  
range from 00 to FF.  
Example: 00:02:16:17:50:A4  
IP addresses are 32-bits and are expressed in 4 bytes in  
decimal format usually separated by periods. Each  
decimal byte has a range from 0 to 255.  
Example: 192:168:42:55

Section 4 - Appendix B - Application Considerations  
Configuration Files  
The purpose of RARP is to look up a 32-bit IP address  
given a 48-bit network hardware address. The RARP  
server (which is usually a UNIX workstation running a  
rarpd daemon) performs this function using two  
configuration files and one or more daemons. The  
configuration files are “/etc/hosts” and “/etc/ethers” and  
the daemon is called rarpd. A name can be assigned to  
any device on a network and is arbitrary. For the  
following examples the name used for the OkiLAN  
6020e is OKIPRINTER. Remember that this name is  
arbitrary; a customer can assign any name.  
/etc/hosts: The “/etc/hosts” file is where each entry  
maps a host name to an IP address. An  
example entry is shown below.  
192.168.42.55 OKIPRINTER  
/etc/ethers: The “/etc/ethers” file is where each entry  
maps a host name to a network hardware  
address. An example entry is shown below.  
00:02:16:17:50:A4 OKIPRINTER  
The following sequence of events occurs during the  
power up of the OkiLAN 6020e using RARP:  
1. The OkiLAN 6020e powers up but does not know its  
IP address. However, it does know its network  
hardware address.  
2. It sends out a RARP request message with its  
network hardware address. For this example, the  
OkiLAN 6020e address is 00:02:16:17:50:A4.  
3. The rarpd daemon running on a RARP server (in this  
example the RARP server is a UNIX workstation)  
sees the RARP request along with the network  
hardware address in the “/etc/ethers” file. The rarpd  
daemon finds the host name, OKIPRINTER, listed  
as the name associated with the network hardware  
address.

Section 4 - Appendix B - Application Considerations  
4. The rarpd then consults the “/etc/hosts” file and  
looks up the name OKIPRINTER. It finds an IP  
address (in this case 192.168.42.55) associated with  
the name OKIPRINTER.  
5. The rarpd daemon transmits a response to the  
OkiLAN 6020e with the IP address 192.168.42.55.  
The OkiLAN 6020e will then use this IP address for  
all subsequent transmissions.  
For all these steps to work properly, at least one RARP  
daemon (rarpd) must be running on the RARP server.  
On most UNIX systems, this can be tested by using the  
ps command with the show all processes option.  
Unfortunately, the ps options differ from one UNIX  
workstation to another. Perform a man ps at the UNIX  
prompt to consult a manual page on the ps command  
for a particular workstation. If rarpd is not running on a  
workstation, type man rarpd at the UNIX prompt to  
consult a manual page on the RARP daemon and how  
to start it.  
Limitations  
Often TCP/IP networks are divided into subnets. RARP  
does not work across subnets. When installing an  
OkiLAN 6020e, make sure the following two criteria  
are met for RARP to work properly.  
1. Both the RARP server and the OkiLAN 6020e are  
physically attached to the same subnet.  
2. The IP address assigned to the OkiLAN 6020e and  
the IP address of the RARP server belong to the  
same subnet.

Configuring HP-UX v8.07 for Printing  
with the OkiLAN 6020e  
This application note describes the configuration of the  
printing system on the HP-UX ver. 8.07 of the UNIX  
operating system. For clarity and brevity, the following  
specific names will be used to represent general  
devices or concepts.  
lj4 - The local queue name on the HP-UX system  
to which print jobs that are destined for a printer  
attached to the OkiLAN 6020e will be directed.  
OKIPRINTER - The host name of the remote  
system which is the OkiLAN 6020e. For example,  
to telnet to the OkiLAN 6020e and invoke the  
OkiLAN 6020e Configuration utility, you would  
type telnet OKIPRINTER. A host name is not  
required for the OkiLAN 6020e, the IP Address  
may be used.  
yourqueuename - This is the name of the queue  
on the OkiLAN 6020e and must end with 1, 2, 3  
or 4, depending on the port selected to service the  
print jobs.  
If FF, LF or NF are the last two letters of the  
queue name, the job will be converted  
accordingly. See pages IV-15 and IV-16 for more  
information on remote queue names.  
Prerequisites  
Before you proceed, the following prerequisites must  
be met. Most of the time, steps 2 through 5 are already  
configured since the HP-UX system is on a TCP/IP  
network. Do not perform steps 2 through 5 unless the  
installation procedure fails!  
T/CIP  
1. The name OKIPRINTER and the IP address  
assigned to the OkiLAN 6020e are in the  
“/etc/hosts” file on the HP-UX system.

2. Make sure the rlp process is not running by typing at  
the UNIX prompt:  
ps -e | grep rlp  
If rlp is not running, you will not see any output after  
executing this command.  
If rlp is running (that is, if you see output after  
executing this command), kill the process with the  
command:  
kill -15 process_number  
3. Make sure the following entry is in the  
“etc/inetd.conf” file:  
printer stream tcp nowait root /usr/lib/  
rlpdaemon rlpdaemon -I  
If the rlp daemon is not running when a print request  
is made, this entry in “/etc/inetd.conf” tells inetd to  
auto-start the rlp daemon to service the pending print  
request. This is helpful if the daemon was terminated  
for some reason. For more information on inetd or “/  
etc/inetd.conf”, type man inetd or man inetd.conf.  
4. Make sure the following entry is in the  
“/etc/services” file  
printer 515/tcp spooler  
5. Start inetd by typing the following at the UNIX  
prompt:  
/etc/inetd -c  
Procedure  
HP-UX uses an interactive utility called SAM (System  
Administration Manager) to configure printing. To  
configure printing using SAM, do the following:  
1. Login to the HP-UX system as root.  
2. Invoke the SAM utility by typing sam at the UNIX  
prompt. (We suggest you do this at the system  
console. SAM uses a screen oriented interface that  
works best at the console.)

Section 4 - Appendix C - Internet Printing Protocol (IPP)  
Appendix C  
Internet Printing Protocol (IPP)  
Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) is an application level  
protocol that can be used for distributed printing over  
the Internet. Using the new IPP protocol from any  
standard IPP client, you can print to any printer that is  
connected both to your OkiLAN 6020e and to the  
Internet.  
With the OkiLAN 6020e, there is no configuration  
required. Enter the print server IPP URL as  
http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:631/ipp/portn, where  
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the IP address of the print server  
and portn is the output port number.  
Example: http://198.60.248.120:631/ipp/port2.  
Since IPP is a new industry standard, users are advised  
to check with the vendors of their operating systems for  
IPP client and IPP server software. Examples are  
Novell, Microsoft and EASYSOFTWARE for a generic  
version of a UNIX® CUPS® driver that supports the  
IPP protocol.

Section 5 - Chapter 2 - Installation  
• The initial installation requires the file server to be  
brought down and then back up again. This may be a  
consideration when you are planning your install.  
Depending on your current configuration, the following  
software may also be needed:  
• Printer driver installation diskettes. These diskettes  
are provided with the OS/2 operating system or are  
available from the printer manufacturer.  
• LAN Manager or LAN Server installation diskettes.  
Note: It is strongly recommended that you make  
backup copies of the OS2.INI and  
OS2SYS.INI files before you install the  
OkiLAN 6020e. Follow the directions in your  
OS/2 documentation to back up these files.  
Installing the Utilities Software  
Two software utilities are provided with the OkiLAN  
6020e: INSTALL and OkiNet for OS/2.  
Install  
The INSTALL utility copies both software utilities to  
your OS/2 server and registers the OKI application with  
the OS2.INI file. You will need to run INSTALL one  
time only.  
OkiNet for OS/2  
The OkiNet for OS/2 utility completes the initial  
installation of the OkiLAN 6020e. In addition, you can  
run the utility as needed to modify the configuration of  
the OkiLAN 6020e or to view port information.  
Note: The directory where OKI DLL files install,  
c:\OS2\DLL, must be the first entry in the  
LIBPATH command located in the  
CONFIG.SYS file. When you reboot the  
system, the OS/2 spooler will load the OKI  
Network Printer Redirector.

Printing in the OS/2  
Environment  
Overview  
OS/2 provides several methods for selecting a printer  
from within an application. The best method to use  
depends on the specific application. The following  
methods are provided as simple examples for different  
environments within OS/2.  
Note: The following examples will work on any OS/2  
machine on the network, provided that the  
proper network privileges and protocols have  
been observed.  
OS/2 1.3  
To specify a queue as the default for your system, do  
the following:  
1. Select Print Manager.  
2. Select SETUP.  
3. Select Application Defaults.  
4. Change the default print queue to the print queue  
associated with the OkiLAN 6020e.  
OS/2 Presentation Manager applications which use the  
default printer will now print to the OkiLAN 6020e  
printer.  
OS/2 2.X and OS/2 Warp  
To specify the printer attached to the OkiLAN 6020e as  
the OS/2 default printer, do the following:  
1. From the desktop, right-click on any printer icon.  
2. Select the right arrow next to Set Default. A list of  
print queues defined for your system will display.

Section 5 - Chapter 3 - Printing in the OS2 Environment  
3. Select the print queue associated with the OkiLAN  
6020e.  
OS/2 applications that use the default printer will  
now print to the printer attached to the OkiLAN  
6020e.  
The OS/2 print screen function uses the OS/2 default  
printer. This function is invoked when you press the  
Print Screen key while on the desktop, in an OS/2  
window, or when you are running an OS/2  
application.  
4. Press Print Screen on your keyboard. A copy of  
your screen will appear on the appropriate printer.  
DOS and WIN-OS/2  
DOS and WIN-OS/2 do not observe the OS/2  
Presentation Manager default printer setting. Both DOS  
and WIN-OS/2 applications typically use LPT1 as the  
default printer. To use the newly defined print queue as  
a DOS or WIN-OS/2 printer, you must assign a DOS or  
WIN-OS/2 device name to the desired queue.  
Example:  
If the OkiLAN 6020e is installed on a server  
named SERVER 1 and assigned the queue name  
MPXLPT, the following command issued from an  
OS/2 command prompt would reassign LPT1:  
C>NET USE LPT1 \\Server1\MPXLPT  
If OS/2 does not recognize the network name,  
enter the following command from an OS/2  
prompt on the server where the software utilities  
were installed:  
C>NET SHARE MPXLPT /PRINT  
Any applications using LPT1 will now print to the  
OkiLAN 6020e.

printer drivers, this setting should not be changed. This  
includes the LaserWriter Drivers, HP LaserJet Drivers  
and other drivers.  
Each EtherTalk printer port supports two AppleTalk  
Types:  
Type1 (mandatory) - The Type 1 default is  
LaserWriter. This option should not be changed  
unless the user wishes to use a print spooler without  
bypass or the user does not want the printer to  
respond to any of the LaserWriter drivers.  
Type 2 (optional) - Select this option when  
configuring for a spooler.

Troubleshooting  
Before You Call  
This appendix allows you to troubleshoot problems you  
may have installing or using the EtherTalk protocol.  
After trying these suggestions, if you are still having  
difficulty, call Oki Data Customer Support at 1-800-  
OKI-DATA (1-800-654-3282).  
If you have trouble sending data to the printer through  
your OkiLAN 6020e, check the following:  
Verify that the OkiLAN 6020e printer appears in the  
Chooser  
• Printer configuration  
• Printer hardware  
• OkiLAN 6020e configuration  
• OkiLAN 6020e hardware  
• Cabling and/or connectors  
• Macintosh System version  
• LaserWriter driver version  
• Application software configuration  
OkiLAN 6020e Does Not Appear in the  
Macintosh Chooser  
If the OkiLAN 6020e does not appear in the Chooser as  
a LaserWriter device, check the following:  
• Print a configuration sheet. Verify that the EtherTalk  
protocol and port are enabled.  
Verify that the AppleTalk type is LaserWriter.  
Verify that the OkiLAN 6020e has passed self-test.  
The status indicator should be solid green.  
• Check the connections between the OkiLAN 6020e  
and the Macintosh. When the OkiLAN 6020e does  
not appear in the Chooser, it is often caused by a  
cabling problem.  
Verify EtherTalk Phase 2 is selected in the Control  
Panel.

Unable to Print from a Macintosh  
EhterT  
If you are unable to print from a Macintosh via the  
OkiLAN 6020e, try the following:  
Verify the OkiLAN 6020e appears in the Chooser as  
a LaserWriter device. If the OkiLAN 6020e does  
appear in the Chooser, make certain it is selected.  
• Make sure you are using System and Finder version  
6.02 or later and LaserWriter driver version 8.0 or  
later.  
Verify the printer supports PostScript Level 2 via the  
printer test/ configuration sheet.  
• If the status message Printer Error: Bi-Di  
communication on printers parallel port is not  
enabled appears, verify your printer’s parallel port is  
a bidirectional port and is enabled.  
• Print an OkiLAN 6020e configuration sheet to verify  
language switch settings. Verify the setting is NOT  
PCL.  
Verify the printer’s language setting is NOT PCL.  
Unable to Print a Document  
If a document will not print, first check your printer.  
Look for paper jams, an empty paper tray, low toner  
error or other error conditions. Try to print the  
document again. If it still does not print, exit the  
application and try a Desktop Print from the File menu.  
If the directory prints correctly, re-enter the application  
and try to print a different document. If the second  
document prints successfully, your problem may be  
document-specific. Check for problems in the  
document. If your printer has error handling capability,  
activate the error handler and try to print the first  
document again to obtain an error report.

If the directory does not print, send the directory again,  
and watch the OkiLAN 6020e activity indicator. If the  
status indicator flashes to indicate activity, data is  
reaching the OkiLAN 6020e. Send the document again  
and watch the printer for activity. If you see activity but  
no output, data is reaching the printer, but the printer is  
aborting the job. A PostScript printer will flush its  
memory buffer whenever it encounters an error  
condition, thereby aborting the entire job.  
Try the following:  
• Power the printer and the OkiLAN 6020e off and on.  
Allow the OkiLAN 6020e and the printer to warm  
up before you send a print job.  
Verify the printer is on-line and ready.  
Verify the OkiLAN 6020e is configured correctly.  
• If you suspect any of the cables are bad, swap them  
with cables you know are working.

OkiLAN 6020e Connect for IP  
OkiLAN 6020e Connect for TCP/IP is a full featured  
utility that allows simple, direct, TCP/IP printing from  
your computer to a printer attached to an OKI TCP/IP  
enabled print server. OkiLAN 6020e Connect has  
advantages over other TCP/IP printing options. It  
allows you to print to print servers that are using  
Dynamic IP addresses (DHCP). It will also notify you  
immediately in the event of a printer error (e.g. Paper  
out). Print jobs printed through OkiLAN 6020e  
Connect are sent directly to the OkiLAN 6020e print  
server and not routed through a network server,  
resulting in a reduction of network traffic.  
System Requirements  
To use OkiLAN 6020e Connect for TCP/IP for your  
Windows NT 4.0/2000 operating system, your  
computer must be configured to run TCP/IP. The  
OkiLAN 6020e print server must also be configured to  
run TCP/IP.

OkiLAN 6020e Connect for DLC  
OkiLAN 6020e Connect for Data-Link Control (DLC)  
provides a direct printing solution for users in  
Microsoft Windows 95/98 serverless environments  
with the DLC/LLC protocol. Print jobs printed through  
OkiLAN 6020e Connect are sent directly to the  
OkiLAN 6020e print server and not routed through the  
network server, resulting in a reduction of network  
traffic. OkiLAN 6020e Connect for DLC can be used to  
configure the print server, obtain status from the print  
server and printer, and send jobs to the printer.  
System Requirements  
To use OkiLAN 6020e Connect for DLC, your  
operating system must be Windows 95/98 and the  
Microsoft 32-bit DLC protocol must be installed.  
Installation  
To install OkiLAN 6020e Connect for DLC, follow the  
instructions below:  
1. Install OkiNet for DLC — see Section I.  
2. When the installation is complete, click on Start,  
Settings and then Printers.

to print with OkiLAN 6020e Connect, then select  
Properties from the File menu.

Chapter 1  
Introduction  
The OkiView 32 Utility provides a simple, quick way of viewing the  
status of all brands of network printers on Microsoft/Novell  
networks, as well as configuring and maintaining Oki network  
printers on those networks. The main screen contains the OkiView  
Printer List of network printers, and provides the starting point to  
select and manage print devices from Windows 95, 98, NT and 2000  
workstations on the network.  
This section gives a summary of OkiView 32’s features. For more  
details, see the OkiView on-line Help.  
Please note that not all OkiView 32 features may be supported by  
the particular OKI printer or OkiLAN print server model which you  
are using. For example, the OkiLAN 6020e does not support the  
NetBEUI protocol.  
OkiView 32 Installation Requirements  
Note: Novell’s Client for Windows 95/98, NT or 2000 is required for  
OkiView 32. Microsoft Client is required only for configuring Novell  
using a Microsoft network.  
Insert the OkiView 32 CD into your CD-ROM drive and run  
Setup.exe.
