The BiAdmin Management Utility can be used to configure the settings of the Wireless USB Print Server. This utility is for advanced users or for users on a network with multiple Wireless USB Print Servers. On networks with multiple Wireless USB Print Servers, it is recommended that you use the BiAdmin Management Utility instead of the Web User Interface.

Installing the BiAdmin Management Utility

If you configured your client installation as Admin, the BiAdmin Management Utility is already installed on your computer.

Insert the U.S. Robotics Installation CD-ROM into your CD-ROM drive.
Click Additional Installs and then click Next.

Select Custom.
Verify sure BiAdmin is selected.

Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation.

Using the BiAdmin Management Utility

You can launch the BiAdmin Management Utility by using the link in the Programs menu. When it is launched, the BiAdmin Management Utility will search your network for all the Wireless USB Print Servers that are attached and running. The Wireless USB Print Servers will then be shown in the device list of the BiAdmin Management Utility.

On the left side of the screen, you will see each Wireless USB Print Server that is attached to the network. If you select a Wireless USB Print Server, you will see the settings information on the right side of the screen.

If the desired Wireless USB Print Server is not listed, try performing the following steps:

Make sure that the Wireless USB Print Server is installed and receiving power, then click in the WUI to refresh the list.
If the Wireless USB Print Server is on another LAN segment, in the menu, click InitDevice and then Attach to locate and display the Wireless USB Print Server.

At the top of the main BiAdmin Management Utility screen, there are status icons and the following menus:

Main: From this menu, you can select the following:

InitDevice: From this menu, you can select and perform the following:

Reset Device: This will cause the Wireless USB Print Server to reboot. To reboot the print server, click Yes. This should be done after making any configuration changes or if the Wireless USB Print Server stops responding.
Restore to Factory Default: To restore all of the Wireless USB Print Server values to the factory default settings, click Yes. To restore the settings only for the current screen in the management utility, click Set to Default on that particular screen.
Attached Remote: This is used to connect to a Wireless USB Print Server that is located on another LAN segment. You need to enter IP address of the remote Wireless USB Print Serve and click Set. If your LAN does not have a router, this option is not applicable.
Connected Protocol: This option allows you to designate which LAN protocol is used for communication between the selected Wireless USB Print Server and this application. You should select only one protocol.

Diagnostic: From this menu, you can select Print Test Page and then select the printer that should print the page. This will print out a test page which contains the configuration settings of the Wireless USB Print Server.

Help: From this menu, you can select Help Topics or the About BiAdmin for more information on the BiAdmin Management utility.

Status Icons

Once a Wireless USB Print Server has been selected, the icons can be used. The icons provide status information as well as access to the selected Wireless USB Print Server settings. If an icon is grayed out, that option or protocol is unavailable.
