Checking Your Network Environment

Refer to the following examples to confirm the network environment that is connected to the machine, and then perform the
necessary operations for that environment.
•
If you are using the imagePASS, the ColorPASS, or the PS-GX, see the manual provided with the imagePASS, the ColorPASS, or the PS-GX.
•
If you are using the imagePASS, the ColorPASS, or the PS-GX, some functions are not available with this machine. For details, see the
manual provided with the imagePASS, the ColorPASS, or the PS-GX.

Sample Windows Network

In a Windows network environment, the TCP/IP or NetBIOS (NetBIOS over TCP/IP) protocol can be used. Multiple protocols can
be used at the same time.
In addition to IPv4 (Internet Protocol Version 4), the machine also supports IPv6 (Internet Protocol Version 6), and has a dual
stack configuration that enables it to communicate with both IPv4 networks and IPv6 networks. You can select whether to
use the functions of IPv4 or IPv6. You can also enable the functions of both IPv4 and IPv6. The IPv4 network and IPv6 network
used by the machine supports IPSec (Security Architecture for Internet Protocol). (See e-Manual > Network.) For information
on the optional products required to use the IPSec function, see e-Manual > Optional Products.
To use the e-mail/I-fax function, the TCP/IP protocol is required.
After configuring the settings in accordance with Chapter 3, "Settings Common to the Network Protocols, " see the following,
depending on the protocol:
•
Chapter 4, "Using a TCP/IP Network"
•
Chapter 6, "Using an SMB/CIFS Network"
•
The machine does not support NetBEUI.
•
If you are using the imagePASS, the ColorPASS, or the PS-GX, some functions are not available with this machine. For details, see the
manual provided with the imagePASS, the ColorPASS, or the PS-GX.

Sample Macintosh Network

In Mac OS 8/9, the AppleTalk (EtherTalk) protocol is used. In Mac OS X, either the AppleTalk (EtherTalk), TCP/IP, or NetBIOS
(NetBIOS over TCP/IP) protocol can be used.
To use the e-mail/I-fax function or to send data, the TCP/IP protocol is required.
After configuring the settings in accordance with Chapter 3, "Settings Common to the Network Protocols, " see the following,
depending on the protocol:
•
Chapter 4, "Using a TCP/IP Network"
•
Chapter 6, "Using an SMB/CIFS Network"
•
Chapter 7, "Using an AppleTalk Network (Macintosh)"
The protocol you can use differs depending on the version of Mac OS or type of printer driver. For details, see Chapter 14, "Before Printing
from Computers".

Sample UNIX Network

With UNIX computers, the TCP/IP protocol is used.
After configuring the settings in accordance with Chapter 3, "Settings Common to the Network Protocols, " see the following:
•
Chapter 4, "Using a TCP/IP Network"
