Enter the appropriate settings for the network type you use (Ethernet or Token Ring).
Token Ring Setup appears as an option only if you have enabled Token Ring in Port
Setup. If your network uses a gateway, enter the gateway address in Gateway Setup.
For information about setting up the network environment for printing with TCP/IP,
see Chapter 4.
When you set an IP address, subnet mask, or gateway address for the Fiery X3 during
Setup, you can allow the Fiery X3 to get these addresses automatically from a DHCP,
BOOTP, or RARP server. First, turn on or reboot the Fiery X3 and allow it to reach
Idle. Next, make sure the DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP server is running. Finally,
perform Fiery X3 Setup.
TCP/IP Setup with Ethernet
Enable Auto IP Configuration
Yes/No [Yes]
Select Yes to allow the Fiery X3 to obtain its Ethernet IP address by searching the
network. Depending on your network and the protocol you select in the following
option (DHCP, BOOTP, or RARP), the IP address can change. Select No to assign the
Fiery X3 a static IP address, which will not change. If you select No, you proceed to
the IP Address option, where you manually set the IP address.

Ethernet Setup
Enable TCP/IP for Ethernet
Yes/No [Yes]
Select Yes if you have a TCP/IP network connected to the Fiery X3 over Ethernet
cabling. You must enable TCP/IP for Ethernet to use the Fiery WebTools over
Ethernet.
NOTE: If you are using TCP/IP for printing from Windows NT 4.0 workstations,
enabling TCP/IP here also enables you to use Fiery utilities from workstations using
TCP/IP protocols.
