Hardware Installation Steps
With all xPrintServer package contents and the requisite user-supplied items listed above, you
may begin installation.
1. Make sure of the following:
- Your devices (smartphone, tablet or PC) are on the same Wi-Fi® or wired network as
your xPrintServer unit.
- Printing from your Windows or Mac computer (from which the USB printer is directly
attached) is working before proceeding. If you are installing a new USB printer, this may
require downloading and installing printer drivers to your desktop from the printer
manufacturer.
2. Position the xPrintServer device. The xPrintServer can simply be placed as it is on a desk or
other secure flat surface. Here are additional options:
- To install the rubber feet on the xPrintServer (for added grip and stability on a flat
surface), peel to unveil the adhesive strip on each rubber foot and press one foot onto
each of all four bottom corners of the xPrintServer unit.
- To secure the xPrintServer into a server rack, utilize the included mounting bracket and
screws. There are a variety of ways to mount the bracket and then the xPrintServer unit,
including the two sample methods in Figure 2-2.
Figure 2-2 Sample xPrintServer Mounting Options
or

2: Installation
Lantronix® xPrintServer® User Guide 13
3. Connect printer(s).
- For USB printers: connect the USB printer cable to the USB port of the xPrintServer
device, if any.
- For network printers: connect all printers to the network through a wired, wireless–to-
router, switch or LAN connection.
4. Connect the network cable from the router/switch to the xPrintServer.
5. Power on the xPrintServer device with the supplied power adapter. The xPrintServer will
automatically set-up all printers on your network and/or USB-connected printers. The
glowing “X” will blink quickly for about 30 seconds, and then it will pulse slowly to show it is
ready for printing.
6. Monitor the LEDs on the xPrintServer for activity and status information (see Ethernet LEDs
and Status LEDs).
Figure 2-3 Quick Connect Diagram
xPrintServer Device Network Details
The xPrintServer device is hardwired (via standard CAT-5) cabling to a router, switch or hub. The
system requires an Access Point (A/P), which can be also hardwired and connected to the
network. The tablet or smart phone device associates with the A/Pand communicates to the
xPrintServer when a print job is ready to be processed. The xPrintServer communicates with
network attached printer(s); the printers may either be wired or wirelessly connected to the
network.
For the xPrintServer to auto-detect printers on bootup, the xPrintServer and printers must be on
the same subnet. After auto-detection has been completed, the xPrintServer device can then be
relocated to a different subnet (Wi-Fi connected subnet that devices are connected to) assuming
that subnet can route to the previous subnet.
The xPrintServer uses Zeroconf to advertise print services to the your tablet, smartphone or PC
device(s) and requires your device(s) and the xPrintServer are on the same routable network.
Multicast configuration and support can be found in the Lantronix knowledgebase. You may
perform word searches, such as for “multicast”, at http://www.lantronix.com/resources/.

Lantronix® xPrintServer® User Guide 14
Establishing a Google Cloud Print Connection
After performing Hardware Installation Steps, follow these directions to register a Google Cloud
Print connection to a new xPrintServer unit. This connection does not need to be re-established
after the initial connection is made unless Resetting the xPrintServer to Factory Defaults is
performed.
Note: A Google account and up-to-date web browser are required for establishing a Google
Cloud Print connection. Since multiple Google account logins and passwords may be stored in a
browser maintaining “signed-in” status, it is recommended that you make sure to log out of all
Google accounts prior to beginning these steps. One way of doing this is by using the
incognito/privacy mode in a browser. This way you may select the desired Google account to be
used in establishing this Google Cloud Print connection. Only one Google account can be
associated with an xPrintServer unit at any time. If more than one account needs access to
xPrintServer admin functions, consider using a Google account that can be shared (see Sharing
a Printer through Google Cloud Print Service). Your device (smartphone/table/PC) must be on
the same wired or Wi-Fi network as your xPrintServer unit.
1. Login to the Admin interface of your xPrintServer device in one of two ways below. You will
need to access the QR code or serial number on the Product Label on the underside of your
xPrintServer device.
Scan the QR code on the Product Label using your Android smartphone or tablet and
click the link displayed on your QR code reader to access the xPrintServer device Admin
interface where you may log in (see Figure 3-2 Login Prompt).
Note: QR code readers are available for Android smartphones and tablets at the Google
Play™ store. Lantronix recommends using the ZXing™ Barcode Scanner™ app, which may
be found at https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.zxing.client.android.
OR
Type http://www.lantronix.com/findmyxprintserver directly into a web browser and
enter the alphanumeric serial number from the Product Label.Web browsers can be
accessed on a smartphone, tablet or PC. The serial number is alphanumeric and 12
characters in length. A login window in the xPrintServer device Admin interface will
appear for login (see Figure 3-2 Login Prompt). ).

Lantronix® xPrintServer® User Guide 15
2. Click the Quick Setup link on the left side of the Home page. The Quick Setup page will
appear.
3. Click Start Quick Setup to initiate registration with Google. A Quick Setup window will
appear with a unique Google registration link after a few moments.
4. Click the Google registration link when it appears. A Google login window appears.
5. Login into the Google account you wish to use to establish the Google Cloud Print
connection. This account will control printer sharing with other Google accounts. Businesses
may want to select a Google account for the IT department. If your browser has information
about multiple Google accounts, each may be available for selection in the login window. If
your browser is already logged on to a particular Google account, you will bypass this step by
directly connecting through that account.
Note: Since multiple Google account logins
and passwords may be stored in a browser
maintaining “signed-in” status, it is
recommended that you make sure to log out
of all Google accounts prior to beginning
these steps. This way you may select the
desired Google account to be used in
establishing this Google Cloud Print
connection. In order to be able to see printers
on an xPrintServer unit, a user must be only
logged onto the Google account associated
with the xPrintServer unit within the same
browser. Also, it may be necessary to delete
all cookies if switching between Google
accounts after logging into a Google account
associated with an xPrintServer unit.
