Connect The Hardware - Axis Communications AXIS 5500 Handbuch

AXIS 5500/AXIS 5550 User's Guide

1. Connect the Hardware

1. Make sure that the printer is switched off and that the Power Adapter is disconnected from
the print server.
2. Locate the serial number, found on the underside label of the print server, and write it down.
Example: S/N: 00408c181636
3. Connect the printer to a port on the print server using an appropriate cable.
4. Connect the AXIS 5500/AXIS 5550 to your network (Ethernet Connector), using a twisted pair
category 5 cable.
5. Switch on the printer and make sure it is ready for use.
6. Connect the Power Adapter to the print server. The Network Indicator will start flashing when
the print server is correctly connected to the network.
7. Wait 1 minute and press the test button once. A test page will be printed on the connected printer
— keep it handy during the installation. The test page will show the assigned (static or dynamic)
IP address of the print server.
Note:
If you are installing an AXIS 5550 and have printers connected to both ports, the default setting will send the test
page to the parallel printer.
