Choosing a Connection Method Choosing a Connection Method Connect the printer via Ethernet or USB. A USB is a direct connection and is not used for networking. An Ethernet connection is used for networking. Hardware and cabling requirements vary for the different connection methods. Cabling and hardware are generally not included with your printer and must be purchased separately.
Choosing a Connection Method Connecting via USB If you are connecting to one computer, a USB connection offers fast data speeds. However, a USB connection is not as fast as an Ethernet connection. To use USB, PC users must have Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003 or newer.
DHCP. A DHCP server is built into most cable and DSL routers. If you use a cable or DSL router, see your router’s documentation for information on IP addressing.

Software and Documentation CD-ROM to detect or assign an IP address to your printer. For further instructions, insert the Software and Documentation CD-ROM into your computer’s CD-ROM drive. After the Xerox Installer launches, follow the prompts for installation.
Configuring the Network Address Manually Setting the Printer’s IP Address Note: Verify that your computer has a properly configured IP address for your network. Contact your network administrator for more information. If you are on a network without a DHCP server, or in an environment where the network administrator assigns printer IP addresses, you can use this method to manually set the IP address.
