EasyLAN 10i2 Ethernet Adapter Quick Start Guide  
 
Introducing the EasyLAN 10i2 Adapter  
The external EasyLAN10i2 Ethernet adapter (P/N  
072885) and the internal EasyLAN 10i2 Ethernet adapters  
(P/N 072894 and P/N 072884) let you share your  
available printer resources with everyone connected to your  
Ethernet network. Throughout the guide, “EasyLAN 10i2  
adapter” is used to refer to both the internal and external  
adapter unless otherwise specified.  
You can only connect the external EasyLAN 10i2 adapter  
to these printers:  
• EasyCoder 91*  
• EasyCoder 601XP  
• EasyCoder 4630*  
• EasyCoder 301/E4*  
• EasyCoder 401* and  
401LL*  
• EasyCoder 7421,  
PC41, and 7422*  
• EasyCoder 501*, 501E*,  
501S*, and 501XP  
• ColorCoder 901/V4*  
• EasyCoder C4, PC4, and  
PC41  
* These printer models require an external power supply to run  
the EasyLAN 10i2 adapter.  
You can connect either the external or the internal  
EasyLAN 10i2 adapter (P/N 072894) to these printers:  
• EasyCoder 3240  
• EasyCoder 3400D and earlier and EasyCoder 3440  
• EasyCoder 3600  
Note: To connect the external adapter, the  
printers must have the parallel port option  
installed.  
You can connect the internal EasyLAN 10i2 adapter (P/N  
072884) to these printers:  
• EasyCoder 3400e  
• EasyCoder 4420 and 4440

Note: If you are using the internal EasyLAN 10i2  
adapter, you cannot use the parallel port.  
The EasyLAN 10i2 adapter uses a 10BaseT connection,  
which has a network speed of 10 Mbps.

10i2 adapter with a single  
high-speed parallel port that can  
connect directly, without the need  
of cabling, to an Intermec printer  
with a parallel port installed.  
LED  
The LED provides information  
on power-up diagnostics and  
network activity.  
Test button  
Use the Test button to:  
Print a test label that shows  
some of the EasyLAN 10i2  
adapter’s settings. Printers that  
do not use the Intermec  
Printer Language (IPL) or  
Direct Protocol (DP), such as  
the EasyCoder 91, 7422, C4,  
or PC4 or the ColorCoder V4,  
cannot print a test label.  
Reset the EasyLAN 10i2  
adapter’s settings to the factory  
default settings.  
For more help, see “Printing a  
Test Label” on page 10.

Out of the Box  
Your printer with the EasyLAN 10i2 adapter installed  
comes with the following:  
• PrinterCompanionCD-ROM, which includes the  
EasyLAN 10i2 Ethernet Adapter User’s Manual (P/N  
072889) in PDF format and the Intermec print  
monitor  
• This guide and Important EasyLAN 10i2 Information!  
Installing the EasyLAN 10i2 Adapter  
Before you install the EasyLAN 10i2 adapter, make sure  
that you have the appropriate Ethernet cable and power  
cable. Also make sure that you have loaded media and  
ribbon into the printer. For help, see the quick start guide  
for your printer.  
Connecting the EasyLAN 10i2 Adapter to Your  
Network  
This section explains how to physically connect the  
internal EasyLAN 10i2 adapter or the external EasyLAN  
10i2 adapter to your network.  
To connect the internal EasyLAN 10i2 adapter  
1 Connect one end of a 10BaseT cable to the 10BaseT  
connector on the adapter.  
2 Connect the other end of the 10BaseT cable to an  
Ethernet port for your network.  
To connect the external EasyLAN 10i2 adapter  
Note: Although you can connect the external  
adapter to many different Intermec printers, the  
illustrations in the next procedure show the 7421.  
1 Note the MAC address found on the underside of the  
EasyLAN 10i2 adapter. You need this address during  
the configuration.

7 Turn on the printer. The LED on the adapter flashes  
and then turns off.  
When you turn on the printer with the EasyLAN 10i2  
adapter, the adapter runs through a set of power-up  
diagnostics for a few seconds. If the adapter is operating  
properly, the LED blinks momentarily and then turns off.  
The LED blinks whenever there is networking activity.  
If you have a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration  
Protocol) server on your network, the EasyLAN 10i2  
adapter receives its TCP/IP settings, including an IP  
address, when you plug in the adapter and turn on the  
printer. You are now ready to print to your printer. If you  
want to print a test label or set a static IP address for the  
EasyLAN 10i2 adapter, see the next two sections.  
Printing a Test Label  
After the LED turns off, print a test label to make sure that  
the EasyLAN 10i2 adapter is working. The test label shows  
the current Ethernet and network settings of the adapter.  
Note: Printers that do not use the Intermec  
Printer Language (IPL) or Direct Protocol (DP),  
such as the EasyCoder 91, 901, 7422, C4, or PC4  
or the ColorCoder V4, cannot print a test label.  
To print a test label  
• Insert a small, straightened paper clip into the Test  
button, and press and release the Test button.  
Downloading the IP Address  
If you have a DHCP server on your network, the EasyLAN  
10i2 adapter automatically connects to the server and  
receives its TCP/IP settings, including its IP address. If you  
do not have a DHCP server or if you want to configure a  
static IP address, you can use ARP (Address Resolution  
Protocol) to assign an IP address to the adapter.  
10  
EasyLAN 10i2 Ethernet Adapter Quick Start Guide  
 
To download the IP address from a Windows-based PC  
1 Start a DOS® window.  
2 Type the following command:  
arp -s nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn nn-nn-nn-nn-nn-nn  
ping nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn  
arp -d nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn  
where:  
nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn  
is the IP address for the EasyLAN  
10i2 adapter.  
nn-nn-nn-nn-nn-nn is the MAC address for the  
EasyLAN 10i2 adapter.  
To download the IP address from a UNIX host  
• Type the following command:  
arp -s host_name nn:nn:nn:nn:nn:nn temp  
ping host_name  
where:  
host_name  
is the name mapped to the  
EasyLAN 10i2 adapter’s IP  
address. The default name is  
INTERMEC_nnnnnn, where  
nnnnn is the last six digits of the  
MAC address.  
nn:nn:nn:nn:nn:nn is the MAC address for the  
EasyLAN 10i2 adapter.  
The host will return INTERMEC_0B766F is aliveor  
a similar message. This message indicates that the address  
has been set and communications established.  
When you execute the PING command for the first time,  
you may experience a longer response time than is usual.  
The ARP command can vary between different UNIX  
systems. Berkeley System Distribution (BSD) type systems  
expect the host name and node address in reverse order.  
Furthermore, IBM AIX® systems require the additional  
argument ether.

Managing and Configuring the  
EasyLAN 10i2 Adapter  
If you want to manage or configure more advanced  
parameters on the EasyLAN 10i2 adapter, you can use the  
following tool:  
• Web browser interface. You can access the web browser  
interface by typing the IP address for the EasyLAN 10i2  
in either Internet Explorer or Netscape. For help, see  
the EasyLAN 10i2 Ethernet Adapter User’s Manual.  
You can also use the Intermec print monitor to create a  
network port for the Ethernet link on a Windows 95/98  
system. The print monitor is available on the  
PrinterCompanion CD-ROM. For help installing the  
print monitor and setting up the Ethernet link, see the  
EasyLAN 10i2 Ethernet Adapter User’s Manual.
