Displaying the InfoPrint Manager Operations GUI from the Enhanced Operator Console

You can display the InfoPrint Manager Operations GUI from either the InfoPrint 4000 or InfoPrint 4100 Enhanced Operator Console by ordering and installing Feature Code 4560 (Part Number 54P1446) with your printer. For information about installing this feature on your printer, contact your service representative.

To configure this support from your InfoPrint Manager server, you must make sure that the remote execution daemon (rexecd) process is running on the server.

Also, you must update the /etc/hosts file to include the printer's IP address. To do this task, follow these steps::

  1. Edit the /etc/hosts file with your AIX editor of choice.
  2. Insert the printer's IP address in a line as shown below: 
    xx.xx.xx.xx printer # ethernet name/address
    where xx.xx.xx.xx is the IP address of the printer control unit that is to display the InfoPrint Manager Operations GUI, and printer is a printer host name that is unique to your network.
    Note: If you have multiple Enhanced Operator Consoles that can display the InfoPrint Manager Operations GUI, the /etc/hosts file must contain the IP address for each printer control unit.
