Attaching Bi-Admin to a Remote PrintServer

The Bi-Admin program can locate Linksys PrintServers on networks other
than your own, given your network is running TCP/IP across a WAN or other
network-to-network link via a router. To attach Bi-Admin to a remote Linksys
PrintServer located on a remote network, click on Init Device, then Attach.
The Add Cross Segment PrintServer window will appear. Enter the IP
address of the remote unit, then click Set. The remote PrintServer will appear
in the list of available PrintServers, allowing you to configure it.

Resetting the PrintServer

If the PrintServer seems locked up for any reason, you can reset it from the
Bi-Admin program. To reset a PrintServer, click once on the Device Name
of the PrintServer you want to reset, followed by Init Device, then Reset
Device
.You can also reset it by pressing the Reset button on the left edge of
the unit, (3-Port model only), or by unplugging its power cord.

Restoring Factory Default

If you have made irreversible changes in configuration that have rendered the
PrintServer unusable, or if you simply want to start over from scratch, you
can set the PrintServer back to the default mode so that the device will oper-
ate just as it did when you purchased it. Click on Init Device, then Restore
Factory Default
.

Logical Port Configuration:

Logical Port Configuration Icon

To set or change the PrintServer’s logical port settings, highlight the
PrintServer to be changed and click on the Logical Port icon (shown above).
The Logical Port Configuration window will appear. Make any changes to
the settings, and click on Save to Device when you are finished.
