Configuring New/Refreshed ImageQUEST Xerox VersaLink Printers (4Q2020)

Description:


This article contains instructions for setting up any ImageQUEST Xerox Versalink Copier for use on the WSU Network.

Resolution:


Starting from a clone image:

1. Check the IP Address of the printer to verify that it has been set up with a proper hostname.  Per-building printer subnets are listed on wiki.wichita.edu.  By default, the printer's hostname should be displayed on its control panel. Ping the hostname to determine the IP address.  If the printer does not have a proper hostname/IP address, verify the steps listed in the latest Printer Setup Checklist have been completed.

2. Connect to the web interface of the printer using the hostname and log in as "admin".  Information about administrator logons will be available to Desktop Support staff through their eWallet.  If the admin password has not been properly set, Desktop Support can also provide the factory default password.  The administrator password can be set by clicking Permissions in the left-hand pane, choosing the Admin account then clicking Change Password.

Note: The Versalink user-interface is very particular about browsers.  Edge or Chrome seem to work best.  

3. Set the hostname of the printer.

1. Click Connectivity in the left-hand pane, choose Ethernet at the top of the screen, then choose Edit under Common.

2. Enter the hostname of the printer in the Hostname* field and click OK.

Note: Each time a setting is changed and OK is selected while configuring a Versalink, the printer will prompt to request a reboot.  These reboots may be delayed until all configuration changes are made

1. Click Connectivity in the left-hand pane, select SMTP.
