Windows NT/LAN/WARP Server Network Configuration 6-5
3. While still at the OS/2 prompt, use the following command to enter the IP
address into the print server:
a r p - s x p s 0 0 : 4 0 : 1 7 : 0 0 : e d : d 6 t e m p
Again, substitute your actual name and IP address for
x p s
and
1 9 2 . 1 8 9 . 2 0 7 . 7 7
, and replace the
0 0 : 4 0 : 1 7 : 0 0 : e d : d 6
with the actual Ethernet
hardware address of the print server . The IP address will be set when you
ping the print server in the next step.
NOTE:
You must be on the same Ethernet segment (that is, there cannot
be a router between the print server and the OS/2 system). If
there is a router, you may use BOOTP or other methods described
in Chapter 4 to enter the IP address. Also, this method only
works the first time the print server is configured. If the print
server already has an IP address, you may use TELNET to access
it and change the IP address using the
S E T I P A D D R E S S
command.
4. Set the IP address and verify the connection by using the
p i n g
command with
the address or name of the print server. For example:
p i n g 1 9 2 . 1 8 9 . 2 0 7 . 7 7
or
p i n g x p s
Again, substitute your actual name and IP address in place of
x p s
and
1 9 2 . 1 8 9 . 2 0 7 . 7 7
in the above examples. You should get a response back from
the print server if the IP address has been set and the print server is alive on
the network.
5. From the OS/2 desktop open the Templates folder. Use the right mouse
button to drag the Printer icon (not the Network Printer icon) onto the desktop.
6. The Create a Printer window should be open (if it is not, double click on the
printer icon).
Type in any name for the printer.
Select the default printer driver. If the desired printer driver is not listed, click
on the Install new Printer Driver button and add the driver.
Choose the output port. IBM TCP/IP automatically creates 8 named pipes
called
\ P I P E \ L P D 0
through
\ P I P E \ L P D 7
. Pick an unused one and double
click on it.
NOTE: Early versions of Warp Server have a bug in which the named
pipes do not appear (the problem does not affect Warp Connect
or LAN Server). This problem is fixed via a patch available from
IBM.
You will get the Settings window. Enter the following:
