 Network setup
This chapter gives you step-by-step instructions for setting up your 
machine for network connections.
This chapter includes:
Introduction
Once you have connected your machine to a network with an RJ-45 
Ethernet cable, you can share the machine with other network users.
You need to set up the network protocols on the machine to use it as your 
network printer. Protocols can be set up by the following two methods: 
Via the control panel
You can set up the following basic network parameters through the 
machine’s control panel:
• Configure TCP/IP
• Configure EtherTalk
Supported operating systems
The following table shows the network environments supported by the 
machine: 
• TCP/IP: Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol
• IPP: Internet Printing Protocol
• SNMP: Simple Network Management Protocol
• DHCP: Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
• BOOTP: Bootstrap Protocol
Configuring TCP/IP
Your machine can be set up with a variety of TCP/IP network information, 
such as an IP address, a subnet mask, a gateway, and DNS addresses. 
There are several ways in which your machine can be assigned a TCP/
IP address, depending on your network.
• Static addressing: A TCP/IP address is assigned manually by the 
system administrator.
• Dynamic addressing via BOOTP/DHCP: A TCP/IP address is 
assigned automatically by the server.
Static addressing
To enter a TCP/IP address from your machine’s control panel, take the 
following steps: 
1
Press Menu until Network appears on the bottom line of the 
display and press Enter.
2
Press Enter when TCP/IP appears.
3
Press the Scroll buttons until Static appears and press Enter.
4
Press Enter when IP Address appears.
