name and password for the
Printer?
The default Users are as follows: root as the administrative
User and guest as a non-administrative User.
The HDPii supports two (2) Users.
What if I lose the password
for my Printer or it is not
accepted?
The HDPii has a menu selection that allows the User names
and passwords to revert to default:
Options > Menu > Network Settings > Reset Passwords
What do I do if the IP
address of my Printer is
being changed by my
network?
Follow this procedure:
1.
Contact your network administrator. Ask that your current IP
address be reserved or ask that they provide a specific IP
address that you can use to configure the Ethernet interface.
OR
2.
Choose an IP address that you know will not be used by any
other PC, server or network device. Use those settings to
configure your Printer with static network settings.
(Caution: Do not do this unless you know that these settings
will always be available.)
How do I reconfigure my PC
Printer Driver to connect to a
different Printer or different
IP address?
Choose “Local printer…” unless a shared network printer is to
be installed on a print server.
Use the Windows “Add Printer Wizard” to create a printer
instance to communicate to the printer at the new IP address.
If the printer port is not listed as an existing port then a new
“HDPii TCP/IP Card Printer Port” must be created and
configured to communicate to the printer at the proper IP
address.
See the appropriate Windows documentation for additional help.
How can I verify/change
what IP address my installed
Printer Driver is expecting to
find my Printer?
Follow this procedure.
Open the Printer Driver properties window.
Select Start -> Settings -> Printers and Faxes -> [your Printer
Driver] -> Properties.
From the Ports tab, select Configure Port. The Host name will
indicate IP address of the connected Printer. (Note: If this does
not match your Printer’s IP address, you can change it from this
window.)
Enter the correct IP address.
Select OK.
Select Apply.
Select Close.
