This section describes how to connect to a network using
AppleTalk, IP Print, Canon IP (GARO) and Zeroconf and
how to perform the settings so the printer can be used.

Procedures Required for a Macintosh
Network

Here is a summary of the procedures required to set the
printer for use on a Macintosh network.
The following procedure should be performed by the
network system administrator.

Note

Here we will describe as an example connection to a
Macintosh computer with its built-in, standard Ethernet
port. If you are installing a expansion network interface
board or a wireless LAN, be sure to select the name of
that port.

If you are using Mac OS 8.6/9x, you can use the
printer on an IP Print network. IP Print uses the TCP/
IP protocol. If the TCP/IP settings are enabled with IP
Print (Auto) then the printer can be used by simply
connecting it to the LAN. If the printer is connected
with an IP Printer, first register the IP Address
(Chooser > Registering IP Address) then select the
IP Printer and the printer name.
