Auto Configure

Auto Configure detects the installed device options on the printing system if it is
connected over a network. This button appears in the Device Settings > Properties
tab.
Auto Configure can detect printing system devices such as input devices, output
devices, and hard disk size. Then it updates the Device options list in the Device
Settings tab. Auto Configure keeps the printer driver's Device Settings consistent
with the actual printing system devices.
Note: Not all installed devices are detected by using Auto Configure. Before
selecting OK in the Device Settings tab, check the settings to make sure they are
correct.
To use this feature, click Auto Configure. An in progress message appears, saying
Communicating with the printer to obtain setting information. Please wait a moment.
The check box settings in the Device options list are changed and the Preview
image is updated according to the device options installed. Memory information also
changes based on the setting information returned.
Under the following conditions the Auto Configure tool cannot communicate with the
printing system:
• The printing system is powered off or is in the middle of the startup process. In
such cases, Auto Configure displays the following message after the time out:
Please verify that the printer is powered on and ready to print.
• The Windows XP firewall prevents the communication. It opens a Windows
Security Alert dialog box with this message: Do you want to keep blocking this
program? (Keep Blocking, Unblock, Ask me Later).
The Microsoft Windows XP Firewall settings can be changed to allow communication
between the printing system and your computer. The default setting for Windows XP
Service Pack 2 is for the Windows Firewall to be set to On.
