Hardware Setup  
NOTE: Before attempting to install the print server, first make sure  
that you have installed your printer or plotter as described in the  
documentation for the device.  
1. Plug the print server directly into the parallel port (36-pin female  
connector) on your printer. No additional data cable is required.  
NOTE: In the event that the print server cannot be connected directly  
to the printer's Centronics port, a 36-to-36-pin Centronics (male-to-  
female) cable can be ordered from TROY (p/n CABLE-CEN2). For  
printers that use the miniature Centronics IEEE 1284C-compliant  
connector, TROY offers the CABLE C/B adapter cable.  
2. Plug the power adapter into a suitable power outlet, and then connect  
the power cable to the print server.  
Verifying Successful Installation  
1. Plug the print server power supply adapter into the wall.  
2. Connect the power supply cable into the print server.  
3. Switch your printer power ON. The print server will run through a  
set of power-up diagnostics for a few seconds. If the print server is  
operating properly, the green LED will blink momentarily and then  
go out (refer to the next page for LED status descriptions). If the  
green LED blinks continuously in a regular pattern, there is a  
problem. If this is the case, first verify that you have a good Ethernet  
connection, and then try powering the unit OFF and then ON again.  
If the problem persists, refer to the Troubleshooting section on page  
12 in this User’s Guide. When the green LED goes out, the other  
LEDs on the print server will blink in a random pattern.

User’s Guide  
Verifying the Connection to the Printer  
NOTE: Before attempting to print, it is very important to verify the  
connection between the print server and the printer. If this connection is  
not good, you will not be able to print!  
To verify the connection, make sure that both the print server and the  
printer are powered on and ready, and then print a test page by briefly  
(more than one-eighth second but less than five seconds) depressing the  
Test button. If the connection is good, a test page will print on the  
printer. If nothing prints out, make sure that the cable or I/O connection  
is good and that it is securely fastened.  
NOTE: The test page will only work with printers that can directly print  
PCL, PostScript, or text. It will not work with some low-end "Windows"  
printers like the HP DeskJet 820 (which performs the image rasterization in  
the PC), nor will it work with HP-GL/2 or RTL plotters (unless the  
PostScript option is installed). For such devices, you must print a job from  
an appropriate application program in order to test the print server-to-  
printer connection.  
If the suggestions described above do not work, contact the TROY  
Technical Support Department at (800) 332-6427, or visit the TROY  
Web site at <http://www.troygroup.com>, or send an e-mail to  
<[email protected]> for assistance. Customers located  
outside the United States, please call (304) 232-0899.  
European customers, please call +49 (0) 7032-9454-21, or send an e-mail  
to [email protected] for assistance.

Microsoft Windows Network Configuration  
The following configuration procedures are designed for Windows  
95/98/ME/2000/NT/XP/2003 Server operating systems.  
1. Insert the CD supplied with your print server, click on Install  
Software, and then click on Install ExtendView. Follow the on-  
screen instructions to complete this installation.  
2. Start the ExtendView utility by clicking on Start, Programs, TROY  
GROUP, and then ExtendView.  
3. When you get the Welcome screen, click on Next, choose any name  
for your View Name, select Automatically create a view with default  
settings, and then click on Finish.  
4. Double-click on the print server that you want to print to in the list.  
5. If you are using TCP/IP (recommended for Windows printing) and  
you do not have a DHCP server (see note below), you will need to  
manually assign a valid IP Address (if you are not sure what IP  
address is valid, ask your network administrator), and click on OK.  
NOTE: If you are using DHCP on your network, the print server may  
have acquired valid IP settings at this point and no further  
configuration is necessary. This might work well if your DHCP server  
allows the print server to keep this address permanently, but in most  
cases, you will want to use a static address outside the range reserved  
for DHCP (see your DHCP server documentation for details). When  
you configure your printer port, the print server will go to a static IP  
address. To assign a static IP address, right-click on the print server in  
the menu, and then select Configuration. On the TCP/IP tab, under IP  
Address Resolution, select Set Permanent, and assign a valid static IP  
address for your network. Click on OK to save the new settings.

Macintosh Network Configuration  
The TROY print server supports the AppleTalk protocol running over  
Ethernet (also known as EtherTalk). This capability allows Macintosh  
computers to print jobs to a printer simultaneously with jobs from  
Windows, UNIX, NetWare, and other computers.  
TROY print server AppleTalk capabilities allow a printer to appear as a  
shareable printer node on an AppleTalk Phase 2 network. The TROY  
print server broadcasts information to Macintoshes on the network, and  
automatically appears in the Print Center or Chooser of each Macintosh.  
Application programs (such as Microsoft Word, Excel, PageMaker, etc.)  
can print without modification or special software on the Macintosh.  
AppleTalk Configuration (OS 8.x and 9.x)  
Identify the printer to which the print server is connected, and install the  
printer driver.  
1. Verify that Ethernet is enabled from the Network Control Panel or  
AppleTalk Control Panel.  
2. At a Macintosh workstation, from the Apple menu, open the  
Chooser.  
3. If the Chooser window displays an AppleTalk zone list, select the  
necessary zone.  
4. Click on the icon for the printer driver you are going to use. If you  
have a Postscript printer, you can use the LaserWriter driver.  
5. Select the print server name (the default is TWC_xxxxxx_P1_AT,  
where "xxxxxx" are the last six digits of the Ethernet address.).  
6. Close the Chooser. You can now print to the printer using any  
standard Macintosh application program.

Troubleshooting  
This section describes procedures for troubleshooting problems you may  
encounter with the TROY print server, and is divided into the following  
sections:  
Installation Problems  
Intermittent Problems  
Protocol-Specific Troubleshooting  
If you have followed the steps in this section and you believe that you  
have a defective print server, then please refer to the information on  
returning defective products on page 22 of this User’s Guide.  
Printing Problems  
If you cannot print to the TROY print server after you install it, check the  
following:  
Make sure that the printer is powered on and is on-line, and that all  
cables are securely plugged in.  
If the printer starts up OK but you cannot print, the problem could be one  
of the following:  
There is a problem with the interface between the print server and  
the printer.  
There is a problem with the network connection or cabling.  
There is a queue setup problem, a print server setup problem, or  
other protocol-related problem.  
CHECKING THE INTERFACE BETWEEN THE PRINT SERVER AND THE PRINTER:  
1. First make sure that the print server is securely plugged in to the  
printer.  
2. Wait about two minutes after the printer is powered ON, and then  
run a print server self-test by pushing the button on the back of the  
print server for less than five seconds.  
NOTE: Pushing the button for more than five seconds will reset the print  
server to factory defaults.  
Document #40182-120 Rev. A  
 
12  
User’s Guide  
b. If the self-test does not print, then there is possibly a  
hardware problem. Double-check the connections. If you  
still cannot print, then make sure that your printer is capable  
of printing text, PCL or PostScript (the self-test will not  
work unless one of these is possible). Some examples of  
printers that do not support direct printing of text files:  
So-called Windows printers, usually low-end inkjet  
printers, perform all the image rasterization in the printer  
driver, so the printer only understands a raw image file.  
Many plotters only support HP-GL/2, RTL, or  
proprietary languages.  
The only way to test such printers is to use an application program with  
the correct printer drivers.  
3. If the self-test prints OK but you cannot print or you get distorted  
printouts, make sure that the printer is set for the correct Page  
Description Language. Most new printers support AUTO mode,  
which means that they will automatically switch between PCL and  
PostScript. However, older printers like the LaserJet II, LaserJet III,  
and LaserJet IIISi require that the printer be set to the desired  
language through the printer front panel. Also, verify that you have  
set up the drivers correctly on the workstation. Some printers, like  
the Epson Stylus, require special drivers and will not print if standard  
PCL or PostScript drivers are used.  
CHECKING THE NETWORK CONNECTION AND CABLING:  
If the self-test page prints but you cannot print documents, first check the  
network connection and cabling.  
If the appropriate LEDs are not on, there is probably a bad  
10baseT or 100baseTX cable, or the hub port is bad. If possible,  
try a different cable and hub port, or try connecting a different  
device to the cable.  
If you are using a hub, verify that the hub port is good by trying the  
print server on a different port.  
Document #40182-120 Rev. A  
 
13  
User’s Guide  
If you have a bridge or router located between the TROY print  
server and the host computer, make sure that the device is set up to  
allow the print server to send and receive data from the host. For  
example, a bridge can be set up to only allow certain types of  
Ethernet addresses to pass through (a process known as filtering);  
therefore, such a bridge must be configured to allow TROY print  
server addresses. Likewise, a router can be set up to pass only  
certain protocols, so be sure that the desired protocol can be passed  
through to the TROY print server.  
If the job exits in the queue but does not print, ensure that you are  
not trying to print a text job to a PostScript printer. If you have a  
printer that is capable of automatic language switching, ensure that  
the printer is not forced into PostScript mode.  
Make sure that you are not trying to perform an illegal operation,  
such as attempting to print a legal-size form when the printer only  
supports 8.5" x 11" paper.  
Intermittent Problems  
If the print server and the printer start up OK, but you intermittently have  
problems printing, check the following:  
Excessive NetWare polling can be a big cause of intermittent  
problems. Make sure that you have only enabled the NetWare file  
servers that you need for printing (do a SHOW NETWARE  
command from the print server console to see the enabled file  
servers).  
If you can print small jobs OK but large graphics jobs are distorted  
or incomplete, make sure that you have adequate memory in your  
printer.

User’s Guide  
TCP/IP Troubleshooting  
If you are using TCP/IP and cannot print to the print server, and you  
have checked the hardware and network as described in the previous  
steps, then check the following (it is always a good idea to try creating a  
another print queue to eliminate the possibility of setup errors):  
The problem may be the result of mismatched or duplicate IP  
addresses. Verify that the IP address is correctly loaded into the  
TROY print server (via the self-test page or through the remote  
console) and make sure that no other nodes on the network have  
this address (DUPLICATE IP ADDRESSES ARE THE BIGGEST  
CAUSE OF TCP/IP PRINTING PROBLEMS). If the address is  
not correct, then check whether the loading procedure was properly  
executed.  
Also verify that the host computer and the print server are either on  
the same subnet (for example, if the print server has a subnet mask  
of 255.255.255.0, the host must have the same subnet mask) or that  
the router is properly configured to pass data between the two  
devices.  
If the wrong IP address is loaded, check your network for file  
servers that have DHCP, BOOTP, or rarp enabled, and make sure  
that these file servers are not set up to load IP addresses into the  
print server.

User’s Guide  
AppleTalk Troubleshooting  
If you cannot print from an AppleTalk for Macintosh computer, you have  
checked the hardware and network as described in the previous steps,  
then check the following:  
Make sure that you are running Phase 2 AppleTalk and that you  
have selected the correct network interface from the Network  
Control Panel on the Macintosh.  
If you have a large network, ensure you have the Laser Writer  
V8.2 or later drivers (or equivalent driver such as the HP LaserJet),  
because earlier versions may cause PostScript errors. Verify that  
you get the correct printer information when you select Printer  
Info from the Setup button in the Chooser.  
Verify that you have selected the correct AppleTalk zone. The  
TROY print server gets its zone information from router  
broadcasts, and may not be in the zone you expect and will not  
show up in the Chooser. In this case, you may need to force the  
zone name with the SET APPLETALK ZONEcommand.  
Verify that you have a PostScript printer, because AppleTalk  
requires PostScript. If you have a printer with automatic language  
switching, the printer may need to be manually forced into  
PostScript mode via the printer front panel.  
Windows Troubleshooting  
If you are having trouble printing with Windows, check the following  
(also refer to the TCP/IP Troubleshooting section):  
Make sure that you can ping the TROY print server using the DOS  
command PING ipaddress, where ipaddress is the IP address  
of the TROY print server. If you cannot ping the print server, you  
will not be able to print.  
If you are getting distorted printouts, try printing using the  
generic/text printer driver.
