Novell NDS/Bindery (4.x and 5.x)
Use OkiView32 to configure the print server and
to add objects to the NDS tree (see page 12).
Novell NDPS (5.x and above)
• IPX: use OkiNet Utility for NetWare (see “Using the OkiLAN 6200e
in NDPS [NetWare 4.x and 5.1]” under Novell NetWare
in the on-line OkiLAN 6200e Network User’s Guide)

or
Use Unix utilities
(see “TCP/IP” in the on-line OkiLAN 6200e Network User’s Guide)
LAN Manager or LAN Server
Use OkiNet Utilities
(see “LAN Manager/LAN Server” in the on-line
OkiLAN 6200e Network User’s Guide)
Direct Network Printing for Windows Clients
Use OkiNet Connect to print directly to
a network printer from a Windows workstation
(see page 13).

11
11 Network Install: Windows & Novell (cont.)
Network Administration
Software, TCP/IP:
Windows 2000 & NT 4.0
In this process, you first set the print server’s IP address,
subnet, and gateway. You can also enter these settings
through the printer’s front panel; see “Network Menu” in
the on-line Desktop User’s Guide.
!If DHCP is active, the printer obtains an IP
address when it is turned on. If you are using
OkiNet Connect IP Monitor, you may not need to
set a permanent IP address.
Next you either configure a Windows server for
queue-based printing, or configure workstations for
point-to-point direct printing.
Install the OkiNet Software
1. With all applications closed and the OKI C Series CD
in your CD-ROM drive, click Start ®Run.
2. Browse to your CD-ROM drive, then double-click
install.exe in the root directory.
3. Click OK.
4. Select the OKI printer model you have, then click
Continue.
5. Click the Network and Admin Software button.
6. Click the OkiNet Utilities button.
7. Select TCP Management Utilities and click Next.
8. Select OkiNet Utility for TCP/IP, then click Install
and follow the on-screen instructions.
9. Select OkiNet Connect Windows Printing and

complete installation.
Configure the OkiLAN 6200e Using
OkiNet for TCP/IP
!You can use this procedure to change settings of a
previously configured OkiLAN 6200e.
1. Press the Test button on the OkiLAN 6200e print
server to print out the configuration page, which
includes the printer’s current IP address.
2. Click Start®Programs ®OkiNet Utilities®
OkiNet Utilities for TCP/IP.
3. By default, the All Print Servers view is selected and
all print servers attached to the subnet of the network
from which the OkiNet utility is running are listed.
4. Select the OkiLAN 6200e you wish to configure.
5. Click Configuration from the Print Server menu or
click the Configuration icon on the tool bar.
6. Click the TCP/IP tab, then fill in the following
information:
IP Address Resolution—Select One:
•Set Permanent (static IP)
Select this option to make the IP address permanent. If
the OkiLAN 6200e has been configured to remember
its IP address, it does not need to determine its address
each time it is powered on.
Enter the IP address for the OkiLAN 6200e (format
XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX , where XXX = number from 0
to 255).
!If you select an invalid IP address, you may not
be able to access the OkiLAN 6200e.
or
•Use Network Protocol
Select this option to use RARP, BOOTP or DHCP to
determine the IP address at power up. Specify which
protocol(s) to use.
Subnet Mask
If your network environment includes subnets, you will
want to set the subnet mask (format
XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX, where XXX = number from 0 to
255).
!The default subnet mask is 0.0.0.0. The OkiLAN
6200e interprets a subnet mask of 0.0.0.0 or
255.255.255.255 as no subnet mask specified.
!If you select an invalid subnet mask, you may not
be able to access the OkiLAN 6200e.

12
11 Network Install: Windows & Novell (cont.)
Default Gateway
If your local network is attached to other networks, you
can specify the address of your default gateway (format
XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX, XXX = number from 0 to 255).
This gateway will be selected whenever messages need to
be sent to another network.
!If you select an invalid default gateway or the
default gateway becomes unavailable, the
OkiLAN 6200e may not be able to communicate
with non-local networks.
WINS Server
If you are using WINS name resolution, set the address of
the WINS Server where the System Name of the
OkiLAN 6200e will be registered.
Use DHCP to Locate WINS Server
If you are using DHCP for IP address resolution, select
this option to obtain the address of the WINS Server from
the DHCP Server.
Telnet/HTTP Password:
Allows you to modify the current password required for
Telnet or HTTP access. The default password is the serial
number of the OkiLAN 6200e.
Set IP Monitor
!You must install a printer driver before performing
this step. See page 16 for details on how to do this.
1. Click Start ®Settings ®Printers.
2. Right click the OKI C7200 or C7400 printer icon, then
click Properties.
3. Click the Ports tab (Windows 2000/NT 4.0) or Details
