Preparing for network printing

Network printer configuration is the process of assigning a name and a unique
network address (IP address) to your printer so network computers can print
to it.
To prepare your network printer for network printer configuration:
1
Follow the steps on the setup sheet to connect your printer to your
network with an Ethernet cable (RJ-45).
2
Read and follow the "Network printing checklist".
3
Follow the steps in "Finding the MAC address of your printer" on
page 6.
4
Continue with "Configuring a network printer (Windows)" on page 7 or
"Configuring a network printer (Macintosh)" on page 14 to install the
printer software and configure your network printer.

Network printing checklist

Make sure all the cable connections are secure.
Make sure your printer is on and connected to your network with a RJ-45
Ethernet cable. For help, refer to the setup sheet that came with your
printer.
Make sure the computers on your network are on and connected to the
network.
Make sure the network link light is on. This verifies that your printer is
connected to your network. For information about locating this light on
your printer, see page 2.
Windows 98/Me, Windows 2000, or Windows XP: TCP/IP
(a networking protocol) must be active and running on all the network
computers you want to print to the network printer. Refer to the
documentation you used to set up your network, the Windows online
help, or a network administrator.
