Configuration Using The Control Panel
You can set NIC settings from the printer control panel.
CAUTION
When the printer is first powered on, E-NET INIT. displays on
the control panel. To prevent a loss of NIC configuration
information, do not change the NIC settings while this
message displays. When the initialization is complete, E-NET
READY displays and you can safely change the NIC settings
from the control panel.
1. You can set any of three listed parameters from the printer
control panel. These parameters are located in the Ethernet
Address or Wireless Address menu.
2. Power on the printer. E-NET INIT. displays when the printer is
powered on. Configuration can be done after E-NET READY
displays.
3. Verify the current NIC firmware version number.
The NIC version should be 1.1.3 or higher for 10/100Base-T
Ethernet adapters. If the NIC version is current, skip to step
4
below. If the NIC version is not current, you need to update
both the NIC and printer firmware.
4. From the front panel, navigate to the IP Address, Netmask, and
Gateway Address (Subnet Mask) menu options and enter the
appropriate values. You must press ENTER after inputting
each segment of the IP Address, Netmask, and Gateway
Address.
5. Put the printer online and wait for the “E-NET READY”
message to display on the front panel. Placing the printer
online starts the NIC IP Address and Netmask update process.
This process will take several minutes.
NOTE: If you do not put the printer online, the setting you just
entered will not take effect. Do not turn the printer off until
you see the “E-NET READY” message. If you turn the
printer off before the new values are written to memory in
the NIC adapter, you will need to repower the printer and
repeat steps
4 and 5 above immediately.
