After you complete the setting for one program, you
must exit the key operator programs, turn off the main
switch, wait briefly, and then turn on the main switch
again before any other programs can be set. The
program that was set will be effective after the power is
turned on.

If DHCP is used, the IP address assigned to the

DESCRIPTION OF SETTING PROGRAMS

Reset the NIC

This program is used to reset all setting items of NIC
(Network Interface Card) of this product to the factory
default settings.
NOTE
If any of the [NETWORK SETTINGS] were changed
prior to execution of this program, you must turn off
the power switch after exiting the key operator
program, wait briefly, and then turn on the power
switch to make the factory default settings take
effect.

Tandem setting

This setting is used to configure the IP address and
port number of the client printer when you wish to have
two machines (which are used as TCP/IP network
printers) print in tandem.
Tandem printing is not possible if the other machine is
a different model than your machine.
The factory default setting for the port number is
[50001]. Unless you experience difficulty with this
setting, it does not need to be changed.
The tandem function can also be prohibited, or the
reception of tandem data from the other machine can
be prohibited. (Normally this is not necessary.)
To prohibit the tandem function, select "DISABLING
OF MASTER MACHINE MODE".
To prohibit reception of tandem data from the other
machine, select "DISABLING OF SLAVE MACHINE
MODE".
NOTE
To use the tandem function when auditing mode is
enabled, the same account number must be entered
on both machines. If the same account number is not
entered, only the server machine may print or the
printed pages may not be added to the correct
account.

PING command

This program is used to check if the machine and a
computer connected to the network can communicate.
Enter the IP address of the computer that you wish to
check and touch the [START] key. A message will
appear indicating whether or not there was a response
from the computer.
