Connecting to a Wired Network
1. Ensure that the printer is powered off.
2. Attach a Category 5 or better Ethernet cable from the printer to the network or router
socket. Use an Ethernet switch or router, and two or more Ethernet cables. Connect
the computer to the switch or router with one cable, then connect the printer to the
switch or router with the second cable. Connect to any port on the switch or router
except the uplink port.
3. Attach the power cord, then plug in the printer and power it on.
4. Set the network IP printer address, or set up the printer for automatic printer IP
detection. For more information, refer to the System Administrator Guide at
www.xerox.com/office/VLC500support.
Connecting to a Wireless Network
A wireless local area network (WLAN) provides the means to connect 2 or more devices
in a LAN without a physical connection. The printer can connect to a wireless LAN that
includes a wireless router or wireless access point. Before connecting the printer to a
wireless network, the wireless router must be configured with a service set identifier
(SSID) and any necessary credentials.
Note
Wireless networking is available only on printers with the optional Wireless Network
Adapter installed.
Installing the Wireless Network Adapter
The optional Wireless Network Adapter plugs in to the back of the printer. After the
adapter is installed, and wireless networking is enabled and configured, the adapter is
able to connect to a wireless network.
To install the Wireless Network Adapter:
1. Power off the printer.
