The FO-NP1 Printer Expansion Kit allows the FO-DC535/635 Document 
Communication System to be used as a network printer.

The features of the printer include:

♦

Print speeds of up to 16 pages per minute.

♦

Printing multiple sets of documents.

♦

Printing multiple document pages on a single sheet (N-up printing).

The following steps are necessary to use the network printer option. The 
steps must be completed in the order shown.

1. Your dealer must install the FO-LN1 network interface kit and the FO-NP1 
network scanner kit. The machine must be connected to the network.

2. The IP address of the machine must be set as explained in the following 
section.

3. The printer driver must be installed on all computers on the network that will 
be using the printer. The printer driver is installed from the CD-ROM that is 
included in the network printer kit. The procedures for installing the printer 
driver and configuring print settings are explained in this chapter.

To allow computers to communicate with the printer over the network, the 
printer must be assigned an IP address. This procedure should be performed 
by the network administrator or administrator of the machine, and is explained 
in Setting the IP Address on page 79.

Note:  Although “DHCP” is available as a setting for the IP address (this 
means that the machine automatically obtains an address from a DHCP 
server), it is recommended that a permanent IP address be assigned to the 
machine. If DHCP must be used, it is recommended that the DHCP lease time 
for the IP address be set to unlimited. 

♦

Note that the printer cannot be directly connected to a computer using a 
parallel cable. The printer must be connected to the network through the 
FO-LN1 network interface kit.

If you plan on moving the printer, contact your Sharp dealer.
