ARGOX Web Setting Tool Software
Configuring Your LAN Printer by Web Setting Tool
Before doing settings for your printer, be sure that you have a LAN cable. The
cable is connected to the LAN connector of your printer. The LAN connector is
an 8-PIN RJ45 type modular connector. Please use the LAN cable of CAT 5 of a
proper length to connect the LAN connector on the printer to a LAN hub as
appropriate.
The default static IP address of the printer is 0.0.0.0 and the default listen
port is 9100. For the first time, to configure your printer through the web
setting tool, you must still follow the step-by-step instructions below.
Attaching the power cord
-
Make sure the printer power switch is set to the OFF position.
-
Insert the power supply’s connector into the printer power jack.
-
Insert the AC power cord into the power supply.
Important: Use only the power supply listed in the user instructions. -
Plug the other end of the AC power cord into the wall socket.
Do not plug the AC power cord with wet hands or operate the printer and the power supply in an area where they may get wet. Serious injury may result from these actions!
Connecting your LAN printer to a LAN hub
Use a LAN cable of CAT 5 of a proper length to connect the LAN connector on the printer to a LAN hub to which your desktop or laptop PC as a host terminal is also connected
Getting the IP address of your LAN printer
You can have the printer run a self test to print a configuration label, which helps you get the IP address of your printer connected to the LAN hub.
- Turn off the printer.
- Press and hold the FEED button, and turn on the printer.
- Both status lights glow solid amber for a few seconds. Next, they turn to green shortly, and then turn to other colors. When LED 2 turns to green and LED 1 turns to amber, release the FEED button.
- Press the FEED button to print a configuration label.
- Get the IP address of the printer from the printed configuration label.
Logging in to the web setting tool
The Web Setting Tool is a build-in setting tool in firmware for ARGOX serial
printers. User can connect to the supported ARGOX serial printers with
browsers to get or set the printer settings, update firmware, download font,
etc.
After obtaining the IP address of the LAN printer from the printed
configuration label, you can connect to the printer with the supported
browsers by input the IP address of the printer, for example, 192.168.6.185,
in the URL field and connect to it.
When the connection is successful, the Login page will be displayed. Input the user name and password to log in to the web setting tool. The default user name and the default password are given below:
- Default user name: admin
- Default password: admin
The default password can be changed in the “Device Setting \ Change Login Password” webpage.
This web setting tool can be used to manage multiple label printers in the
same local area network segment under the Windows operating system as long as
there is no conflicting IP address in the network. You can also check each of
the MAC addresses listed in this tool against the MAC address label you can
find on each of the printers.
The label printer that is connected through TCP/IP in the way like a directly
connected local printer can be used with a random PC connected in the same
local area network segment. So, through the tool, all commands applicable to
the LAN mode can work on the printer in the same way, as the printer must be
configured upon the TCP/IP communication protocol with the IP address of the
printer.
When doing settings through a tablet PC or Smart Phone for the printer working
in infra mode, please set the same network segment of the host terminal to
that of the printer, for example, 192.168.6.XXX (1~254). The Wi-Fi mode for
the printer is infra mode that can be searched by the wireless device manager
of the host terminal.
