Telnet Instructions for Changing Network Card Parameters for the XNIC on DocuPrint 45XX Printers
Print a Printer Configuration Sheet or Network Interface Configuration Sheet to identify the printer's IP address.
At a DOS prompt, enter: telnet <printer's IP address> 2048.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note: The port number 2048 is important for proper terminal emulation. Use this port number when using the GUI telnet application in Windows NT. If you enter the telnet <printer's IP address> 2048 command, you will be logged into the XNIC through the TES port. If you are familiar with the TES screens and prefer to log in via that port, proceed with the TES steps and do not follow this procedure.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At the # prompt, enter the password. The default password is access. You will not see what you enter.
At the Local> prompt, enter: Su.
At the Password>> prompt, enter the password. The default password is system. You will not see what you enter.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note: If the password is not accepted, you must press the Backspace key before you can enter the password. For example: <Backspace> system.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After entering the password, the Local> prompt is redisplayed and you can enter the server commands. Refer to the following table for a list of basic commands.
To exit enter: logout.
BASIC XNIC COMMANDS
SHOW — displays the XNIC's current information. Display screens vary according to the specific SHOW parameter. The syntax is: show parameter.
MONITOR — is the same as SHOW, except the display screen is updated every 10 seconds (every 1 second in privileged mode). Press any key to exit the display. The syntax is: monitor parameter.
LIST — displays the XNIC's NVRAM (non-volatile RAM) parameter settings. Display screens vary according to the specific LIST parameter. The syntax is: list parameter.
SET — temporarily changes a parameter to a given value. The change is valid until you log out of the XNIC or turn OFF the printer. The syntax is: set parameter value.
DEFINE — permanently changes an NVRAM parameter to a given value. You must reinitialize the XNIC for the changes to take place:
Use the Reset All, Reset Ethernet (for XNIC-ETHERNET), or Reset Token Ring (for XNIC-TOKENRING) command on the printer's control panel (DocuPrint 4517 printer, only).
Power off the printer and then turn it back on.
Issue an init delay 0 command remotely.
The syntax is: define parameter value.
CHANGE — is a combination of SET and DEFINE; it immediately changes a parameter and permanently updates it in the NVRAM as well. The syntax is: change parameter value.
HELP — displays instructions on the use of various commands. The syntax is: help command name.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note: In the XNIC, Version 5.x, 6.1 and later, the Help command is not available.

XNIC tasks and commands
Task Command
Display information about the XNIC's characteristics show server characteristics
Display the overall network configuration, including the XNIC hardware address and the protocols currently supported show server network
Display the XNIC node parameters show node
Print Network Interface Configuration sheets for Ethernet or Token Ring sheets show config port 1
Change the login password from the default of access at the prompt showing # define server login password password_1 (where password_1 is the new login password)
Change the privileged password from the default of system at the prompt showing password> define server privilege password password_2 (where password_2 is the new privileged password)
Enable protocols on the XNIC define server authorize protocol enabled (where protocol is one of the following: NetWare, AppleTalk, TCP, LAT, NetBIOS, All, or None)
Disable protocols on the XNIC define server authorize protocol disabled (where protocol is one of the following: NetWare, AppleTalk, TCP, LAT, NetBIOS, All, or None)
Disable TCP/IP configuration parameters show server TCP
Reset the XNIC remotely (soft reset) init delay 0
Reset the XNIC to factory defaults init delay 0 default
Display TCP/IP configuration parameters define server IP xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxxis the printer's IP address)
Redefine the subnet mask define server subnet mmm.mmm.mmm.mmm (where mmm.mmm.mmm.mmm is the subnet mask for the network) If you do not specify a subnet mask, the XNIC will compute an automatic subnet mask value according to the class of the saved IP Address and store that dynamic subnet mask value in the current (temporary DRAM) memory.
Define gateway address define node IP ggg.ggg.ggg.ggg gateway default (where ggg.ggg.ggg.ggg is the address of the default router for the printer's network segment)
Define how many times the printer will attempt BOOTP define server BOOTP n m (where n is the number of broadcast requests that will be made if the printer server does not know its IP address and m is the number of broadcast requests that will be made if the printer server IP address is known. The default is 0) To disable BOOTP, set both the n and m values to 0
Define how many times the printer will attempt DHCP define server DHCP n m (where n is the number of broadcast requests that will be made if the printer server does not know its IP address. Acceptable values are 0 through 7. The default is 2. M is the number of broadcast requests that will be made if the printer server IP address is known. The default is 1.) To disable DHCP, set both the n and m values to 0.
Define how many times the printer will attempt RARP define server RARP n m (where n is the number of broadcast requests that will be made if the printer server IP address is known. The default is 1.) To disable RARP, set both the n and m values to 0.
