Chapter 10 Configuring An IPDS Printer On The AS/400 Configuration Checklist NOTE: All of the following configuration steps carried out on the AS/400 may require "create" or "change" authority. 1. If you have not already done so, set up the printer and install the Ethernet Interface. See "Configuration Using The Control Panel" on page 35. 2. Using the printer control panel, set up the printer for IPDS by setting the parameters and values shown in Table 7. Table 7. Control Panel Settings Menu C/T PORT TWINAX SETUP Item Port Type IPDS Emulation Setting Twinax IPDS 256 or IPDS 1024 3. Set TCP/IP addresses for the printer, such as an IP Address, Gateway Address, or Subnet Mask. See "Configuration Tools" on page 32. 4. If the printer and AS/400 are not on the same LAN segment, verify there is a route defined in the TCP/IP route list. If necessary, use the ADDTCPRTE command to create a route definition. You need this if your printer is somewhere other than on a local segment. 5. You need the IP address of the Ethernet Interface to configure the Ethernet Interface. 6. If you have not done so yet, create a line description for your Ethernet Interface. See "Developing Line Descriptions With CRTLINETH" on page 185. 7. Create or verify the existence of an AS/400 TCP/IP interface for the Ethernet Interface. See "Configuring An AS/400 TCP/IP Interface With ADDTCPIFC" on page 203. 202
