Printer configuration using NWSET

Use this procedure to perform a quick configuration using the default parameters supplied by NWSET. Before beginning this procedure, make sure that the printer is connected to the network and turned on.

  1. Start NWSET:

    1. Change (CD) to the directory that contains the tool. For example, if the tool is in F:PUBLIC, type:

      F:
      CD PUBLIC

    2. Type:

    NWSET

  2. Pull down the Select A Printer menu. NWSET begins a discovery procedure to display the list of available Tektronix printer found on the network. Select the Tektronix printer you wish to configure. The default print server name is in the following syntax:

    TEKxxxxxx

    where xxxxxx is the last six hex digits of the printer's Printer ID.


    Note: If the printer does not appear in the list of available printers, you could have a network hardware problem or an incorrect frame type (see
    Printer does not appear in NWSET).
  3. When you have selected a Tektronix printer, a dialog box is displayed. Enter a user name and password with ADMIN privileges. Click the OK button.


    Note: If you are already logged in to another printer, you will be prompted to log off before logging on to the new printer.
  4. Select the Quick Configuration menu; a dialog box is displayed. Fill in the parameters for the printer:

  5. When you have the settings the way you want them, select Apply/Reset Print Server to enter the settings into the printer.

  6. Select Exit to exit NWSET. The printer should now be ready to start printing; if not, refer to Troubleshooting DOS configurations.
