SERVER CONFIURATION

Configuring your Device Server

  2. Double click on the device on the control center and it will open a web browser showing the user interface of the product.
  3. Log in with administrator ID (default: admin) and its password (default: admin). Methods for Setting the IP Address

Using the USB Device Server

  1. In the Control Center, click the USB device server that has the desired USB device attached.
  2. Click the desired USB device.
  3. Click the “Connect” button. Then the message “Manually Connect by your_computer_name” will be shown.
  4. Now, the PC will detect the plug-in of the USB device. The “connect” operation is a software operation that simulates an actual USB device plug-in. That is to say, when you do a “connect” operation in the Control Center, the PC can then detect a USB device’s plug-in, although actually, you do not plug in any USB device.
  5. Then, just use the USB device as if it is connected directly to your PC’s USB port.
  6. After you finish using the USB device, click the USB device in the Control Center and then click the “Disconnect” button to disconnect the USB device. Other PCs can not “Connect” the USB device until you “Disconnect” that USB device. That is to say, only one PC is allowed to connect to the USB device at the same time.

HOW TO: PRINT

Auto-Connect Printer

  1. In the Control Center, click the USB device server that has the desired printer (or MFP) attached.
  2. Click the desired printer (or MFP).
  3. Click the “Auto-Connect Printer” button and choose “Set Auto-Connect Printer”.
  4. Choose the desired printer. The desired printer must be the Windows printer (this is a logical printer) that matches the printer attached to the USB device server (this is a physical printer). Then click the “Apply” button.

Then, the printer will be marked as an “Auto-Connected Printer” in red. If you choose “Auto-Connected Printer List” in the “Tools” menu, you can see a newly created item that describes the association between the Windows printer and the physical printer on the server.

  • Then try to issue a print job to the desired printer. You will see the Control Center will automatically do a connect operation. Then, the print job will be issued to that printer.
  • Even if you have already properly set up an auto-connected printer, the Control Center must be running (in the background) while a print job is issued. This means you’d better run the Control Center every time after you log in to Windows. In order to skip this manual operation, you can make the Control Center run automatically after you log in to Windows. To do this, choose the “Configuration” item in the “Tools” menu. The following window will appear. Click on the check box and then on the “OK” button. This feature is enabled by default.
  • If you would like to break the association between the Windows printer and the physical printer, just click on the association and click the “Delete” button in the “Auto-Connected Printer List”.

HOW TO: SCAN

Network Scanner

  1. In the Control Center, click the USB device server that has the desired MFP (or scanner) attached. Click the desired MFP (or scanner).
  2. Click the “Network Scanner” button. Then you can see that the Control Center will automatically do a “connect” operation. The following window will appear.
  3. Follow the usual steps to do the scanning.
  4. After the scanning, close the “Auto-Connect Scanner” window. At this moment, Control Center will automatically do a disconnect.

USB Storage

You must use “manually connect” for USB storage. After you connect a USB storage, like in the following picture, your PC will have a new disk. If the USB storage is a flash drive, the new disk is a “removable disk”.
You can see the storage icon in the system tray.
Then just use the new disk as a general disk. After you finish the disk operations, click the storage icon in the system tray and choose “Safely remove USB Mass Storage Device” to remove the USB storage, as the following figure. Then, in the Control Center, click the USB storage device and click the “Disconnect” button to disconnect the USB storage device.
