■ Configuring the Network Address on page 2-5

Choosing a Connection Method
Connect the printer via Ethernet or USB. A USB connection is a direct connection and not
used for networking. An Ethernet connection is used for networking. Hardware and cabling
requirements vary for the different connection methods. Cabling and hardware are generally
not included with your printer and must be purchased separately.
Connecting via USB
If you are connecting to one computer, a USB connection offers fast data speeds. However, a
USB connection is not as fast as an Ethernet connection. To use USB, PC users must have
Microsoft Windows 98 SE, Windows 2000, or Windows XP. Macintosh users must use
Mac OS 9.x and higher.
USB Connection
A USB connection requires a standard A/B USB cable. This cable is not included with your
printer and must be purchased separately. Verify that you are using the correct USB cable for
your connection.
1. Connect one end of the USB cable to the printer and turn it on.
2. Connect the other end of the USB cable to the computer.
