DHCP Server DHCP Server DHCP server settings are configured on the Network > DHCP screen of the Administration Tool. To configure the Snap Server as a DHCP server, it must have a static IP address. The DHCP server automatically uses the subnet of the IP address you set up. Ensure that the network has no other active DHCP servers. You may negatively impact the network if you enable the Snap Server as a DHCP server while another server on the network is performing this function. When you enable the Snap Server as a DHCP server, it reports in-use IP addresses at the bottom of the screen under Current DHCP Status. Print Server The Snap Server can be configured to emulate a Windows print server for locallyattached USB printers. Client machines connect to the Snap Server over the network and use the printer similarly to using a printer shared by a Windows or CUPS server. You can pause or resume the printer, and monitor or cancel print jobs using the Administration Tool. Configuring your Snap Server as a print server is a two part process: • Configure the printer on the Snap Server. • Configure the client to print via the Snap Server. Configuring the Printer on the Snap Server 1 Connect the printer to one of the USB ports on the Snap Server. 2 Power on the printer. 3 In the Snap Server's Administration Tool, navigate to Server > Printing. A list of currently defined USB printers is displayed. To add the new printer, click Add Local Printer. 4 The Snap Server will detect the new printer and it should appear as an option in the Local Printer Device dropdown list. Select that printer. 5 Give the printer a name, and complete Desciption and Location information as desired. Click OK. The printer will appear in the list on the main printing page. 34 Snap Server Administrator Guide
