Configure the IOPRINT+ using FTP

Issue:
How to configure the IOPRINT+ using FTP.

Solution:

Use FTP to connect to the IOPRINT+ server. For example,

ftp 165.154.128.147

You will receive a reponse similar to the following:

Connected to 165.154.128.147
220 Print Server Ready
Name (165.154.128.147:root):

Enter the IOPRINT+ server name. For example, SC061939 located on the label on the bottom of the unit. When prompted for the password, just press the enter key. You will receive the following response:

230 User logged in

Next you need to retrieve the default CONFIG file as follows. Make sure you enter CONFIG in upper case characters :

ftp> get CONFIG

The CONFIG file will get copied to your Windows or UNIX machine.

Now quit the FTP program as follows:

ftp> quit

Edit the CONFIG file on your Windows or UNIX machine using an editor. Set the parameters in the following four lines in the CONFIG file.

0001 BOX_NAME:
4000 IP_ADDR:
4001 GATEWAY:
4002 MASK:
4020 DHCP_MODE: Disable

For the BOX_NAME, enter the Server name of your IOPRINT+. For example, SCO61939 (watch for case sensitive letters)

For the IP_ADDR, enter the IP address assigned to your IOPRINT+

For the GATEWAY, enter the IP address of the gateway router, otherwise, leave it blank.

For the MASK, enter the subnet mask to which network this IOPRINT+ belongs to.

At a minimum, this is what is required. Save the changes to the CONFIG file. Next, put the new CONFIG file
to the IOPRINT+ as follows:

ftp 165.154.128.147

Again you will receive a reponse similar to the following:

Connected to 165.154.128.147
220 Print Server Ready
Name (165.154.128.147:root):

Enter the IOPRINT+ server name. For example, SC061939
When prompted for the password, just press the enter key.
You will receive the following response:

230 User logged in

Now you can put the CONFIG file to the IOPRINT+ as follows. Watch for upper case letters.

ftp> put CONFIG
ftp> get RESET
ftp> quit

You are done.
