Theory To connect your printer in a TCP/IP network environment, you must make sure that the internal network addresses in the printer have been set. In many cases, you have to enter only a unique IP address. However, you may also have to enter a subnet mask and/or a gateway (router) address, depending on your...
Page 89: Making The Connection
Making the Connection Ethernet Interface 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. Printers are shipped with a preset IP address, subnet mask, and gateway.
Page 90: Setting The Address Manually
Setting the Address Manually You may also manually change the printer’s IP address, subnet mask, and gateway by using the following instructions. (See chapter 3, “Understanding the Network Configuration Menus,” for more information.) When manually setting the IP address, turn off DHCP and BOOTP first.
Page 91 If you don’t want to set the subnet mask or gateway, go to step 5. If you don’t want to set the subnet mask, but you do want to set the gate- way, go to step 4. If you want to set the subnet mask, follow these steps. Press this (until) the message window displays .
Page 92 Save your configuration changes and make the printer ready for printing again. Press this (until) the message window displays . . . key . . . Print a configuration page to verify that the correct IP address, subnet mask, and gateway have been set. Press this (until) the message window displays .
Page 93: Network Printing
The magicolor 2430 DL supports the following network protocols: BOOTP DHCP HTTP LPD/LPR SNMP TCP/IP This chapter defines each of these protocols and then explains how to print via IPP. BOOTP BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol) is an Internet protocol that enables a diskless workstation to discover (1) its own IP address, (2) the IP address of a BOOTP server on the network, and (3) a file that can be loaded into memory to boot the workstation.
Page 94: Ipp
IPP (Internet Printing Protocol) is a protocol for end users’ most common printing situations over the Internet. It allows users to find out about a printer’s capabilities, submit print jobs to a printer, determine the status of the printer or print job, and cancel a previously submitted print job. For more information on using IPP, See “Printing via IPP (Internet Printing Protocol) –...
Page 95: Snmp
SNMP SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is actually a set of protocols for managing complex networks. SNMP works by sending messages to differ- ent parts of a network. SNMP-compliant devices, called agents, store data about themselves in Management Information Bases (MIBs) and return this data to the SNMP requesters.
