Introduction
System Structure
SMB operates in an environment where the port is set and the printer connected to the
network. It uses NetBEUI or TCP/IP as the transport protocol.
•
You can use either NetBEUI or TCP/IP, or even both as the transport protocol for
SMB. When setting up the printer, refer to "7.2 Setting NetBEUI in Printer" for
details on NetBEUI and to "7.3 Setting TCP/IP in Printer" for TCP/IP.

You will need to setup the IP address in the computer and printer if you are using
TCP/IP.
