Konica Minolta 4695MF 参考指南

An RJ45 connector can be used as the Ethernet interface for this printer.
When connecting your printer to an Ethernet network, the tasks you perform 
depend on how you plan to set the printer’s IP (Internet Protocol) address.

„

IP Address—A unique identifier for each device on a TCP/IP network. 

„

Subnet Mask—A filter used to determine what subnet an IP address 
belongs to. 

„

Gateway—A node on a network that serves as an entrance to another 
network. 

Since the IP address for each PC and printer on your network must be 
unique, you usually need to modify this preset address so it doesn’t conflict 
with any other IP address or your network or any attached network. You can 
do this in one of two ways. Each is explained in detail in the following sec-
tions.

„

Using DHCP

„

Setting the address manually

If your network supports DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), the 
printer’s IP address will be automatically assigned by the DHCP server when 
you turn on the printer. (Refer to “Network Printing” on page 227 for a descrip-
tion of DHCP.)

1

Connect your printer to the network. 
When using an Ethernet cable, plug the RJ45 connector into the Ethernet 
interface port of the printer.

2

Turn on your PC and printer.

3

After the printer’s message window is initialized, install the printer driver.
