NETWORK CONFIGURATION INTRODUCTION Your machine incorporates a fast 100BASE-TX/10BASE-T network interface. This guide explains the functionality of the built in network interface. Access for interconnection is provided via an interface panel located at the rear of the machine. GDI models: This network interface supports Ethernet-II. The network interface also supports TCP/IP protocols. PDL models: This network interface supports IEEE802.2, IEEE802.
CONFIGURATION SETTINGS With the machine power switched on, print out the Network Information page: 1. Press the OK button. 2. If required, use the Menu up/down buttons to navigate to the INFORMATION MENU then press the OK button to select. 3. Use the Menu up/down buttons to navigate to NETWORK then press the OK button to select. 4. Press the OK button once more to execute.
NETWORK CARD SETUP UTILITY The Network Card Setup utility allows you to carry out the following: > Set IP address, Subnet Mask and Gateway for TCP/IP manually or by using DHCP. > Launch the Printer Web Page. > Enable/disable the Printer Settings Web Page. > Restart your printer to ensure settings have been saved. For full configuration options for your printer, access the Printer Web Page. For information on the Printer Web Page, see “Using a web browser” on page 7.
ADJUSTING PRINTER SETTINGS The network addresses used in this manual are shown as examples only. Network addresses used in your installation must be generated from your own network. 1. Launch the Web browser and enter the IP Address of the network interface card in Address (Location/Position) and press the Enter key. You can find the IP address on the Network Information page, refer to “Configuration settings” on page 6. The printer Web Page is displayed.

USING SNMP NOTE Not all utilities, features or protocols are supported by every product. Please check with your User’s Guide and support website for latest information. The machine and network card can be managed via a standard SNMP management station. The network card supports SNMPv1, MIB-II and Private MIB. To enable correct management from an SNMP management station, the Private MIB needs to be added to that management station.
LPR PRINTING UTILITY (WINDOWS ONLY) NOTE Not all utilities, features or protocols are supported by every product. Please check with your User’s Guide and support website for latest information. LPR is a utility that allows printing data to printers connected to the network via TCP/IP.
7. Verify the program folder name and click Next. The installation starts. 8. When the installation ends, the Setup complete screen is displayed. Check Yes, I want to launch LPR Utility now. If you wish to view the readme file, check Yes, I want to view the ReadMe File. 9. Click Finish. The LPR Utility starts. 10. You may be asked whether it is OK to change write permissions for the spool directory. Click Yes to allow the utility to be correctly installed. 11. Select Remote Print > Add Printer.
WINDOWS OVERVIEW This chapter provides guidelines on how to print over the network from various Microsoft Windows platforms. There are numerous ways of printing from Windows and the exact setup will vary depending upon your environment. There are also numerous versions of Windows, which can be configured as either a client, server or both. Although there are many variants of Windows, the principles of network printing remain the same.
CONFIGURING THE NETWORK PRINTER IP ADDRESS The Network Card Setup utility allows you to configure the network printer IP address and to view the Printer Web Page. LAUNCHING THE NETWORK CARD SETUP UTILITY The following steps describe how to launch the Network Card Setup utility: 1. Ensure that the printer is switched on and connected to the network. 2. Insert the Software CD/DVD-ROM into the CD/DVD-ROM drive. The Setup Utility starts automatically. If it does not start, double-click setup.
