TCP/IP (Unix & Windows NT)
Problem No. 1 LevelOne Printer Server device is not recognized.
Solution No. 1 Check the following:
• There are no routers between the LevelOne Printer Server and
the UNIX host during IP address assignment.
• There are no NetWare File Servers that do not have TCP/IP
support between the LevelOne Printer Server and the UNIX
host.
• The network cable to be used by LevelOne Printer Server is
intact. Connect the cable to another network device and test it.
• You have used the correct hardware address, as shown on a
sticker on the base of the device.
• Use the ping command to see if the LevelOne Printer Server is
a valid device on the network.
Problem No. 2 The standard interface program on SUN 5.2 cannot be used
with Psfilter.
Solution No. 2 Use dumb_int.sh which is the interface program shipped with
LevelOne Printer Server.
Problem No. 3 When the interface program detects that the printer device is
not a printer, a printer error message appears on the screen.
Solution No. 3 Mark out all stty commands in the interface script.

Solution No. 4 If the prefix or and suffix string must contain control words or are
too long, use headfile or tailfile instead of prefix string or suffix
string.
Problem No. 5 The LevelOne Printer Server’s IP address is forgotten and it
needs to be installed in a new environment.
Solution No. 5 Follow the steps below to set the LevelOne Printer Server back to
the factory default configuration.
1. Enter the command:
arp -s yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy 00:c0:02:xx:xx:xx
Where:
yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy is the new IP address assigned to the
LevelOne Printer Server
00:c0:02:xx:xx:xx is the hardware address, as shown on a
sticker on the base of the LevelOne Printer Server.
Note: Windows NT uses "-" instead of ":" in the hardware
address.
2. Enter the commands:
ftp yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy
ftp>get DEFAULTC
ftp>quit
This will reset the configuration to the factory defaults
(including setting the IP address back to 0.0.0.0).
