Using a TCP/IP Network
IMPORTANT
•
To print or send a fax from a computer, the optional equipment must be installed. For the equipment
needed, see "Optional Equipment and System Environment Requirements," on p. 1-2.
•
If the settings for <RX/Print Range> in [IP Address Range Settings] do not permit the IP address of a
computer in which a driver is installed, you cannot print from the computer. (See step 21 in "TCP/IP
Settings," on p. 3-4.)
•
If you print with IPP, the [Pause Printing] and [Cancel All Documents] settings on the [Printer] menu in
the Windows print queue cannot be used. (To view the print queue, click the [Start] menu
➞
point to
[Settings]
➞
click [Printers]
➞
double-click the icon of the machine.)
NOTE
•
It is recommended that you install Canon LPR2 when using Raw or IPP in Windows. Canon LPR2
enables you to easily set ports. For more information, see the Canon LPR2 User's Guide (PDF manual).
For instructions on how to display the Canon LPR2 User's Guide, see the Network Quick Start Guide.

If Windows NT/2000/XP/Server 2003 is on your network, the following procedure enables you to set up
a print server for more efficient management of network printers. Once a print server is set up, print jobs
can be managed by the print server. Also, by setting up an alternate driver for the print server, printer
drivers can be installed in each computer via the network.
For instructions on how to set print servers, see the following procedures indicated in the manual for
each driver:
- If you want to use the PCL printer driver
See the procedure for alternative printer driver installation in Chapter 2, "Getting Started," in the PCL
Driver Guide.
- If you want to use the PS printer driver
See the procedure for alternative printer driver installation in Chapter 2, "Getting Started," in the PS
Driver Guide.
- If you want to use the UFR printer driver
See the procedure for alternative printer driver installation in Chapter 2, "Getting Started," in the UFR
Driver Guide.
