What's Next?

You have now completed the hardware setup of your printer. There are some
more important steps:
1
If your language is other than English, refer to "Selecting a Message
Window Language" on page 35. Select the message window language
you prefer.
2
If you are connecting via parallel or USB, skip to Step 3. If you are
connecting via Ethernet, set your IP (Internet Protocol) address.
With DHCP—If your network supports DHCP (Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol), your IP address will be automatically assigned by
the DHCP server when you turn on your printer (refer to the Reference
Guide, in PDF on the Documentation CD-ROM).
Without DHCP—If you are not using DHCP, you may set the IP address
in one of two ways:
Use the KONICA MINOLTA installation software. Refer to the Soft-
ware Utilities CD-ROM.
Set the printer's IP address manually. Refer to "Manually Selecting an
Ethernet IP Address" on page 36.
3
Connect the printer to your computer or a network.
