Adminmanager; Km-Net Viewer; Modes Of Operation; Encryption - Kyocera KM-1530 Quick Configuration Manual

The Windows-based AdminManager utility may be used in either an IP or IPX environment to fully
configure any of the IB-2x settings. AdminManager may be installed or run from the CD-ROM (Kyocera
Mita Network Library or Kyocera Mita Software Library) by selecting
Configuration menu.
Ongoing printer management and monitoring is often done with the Windows-based KM-NET VIEWER.
KM-NET VIEWER allows advanced grouping, filtering, and sorting of multiple Kyocera Mita and other
vendor printers or copiers. It provides several options for notification of printer warnings or errors and
may be used to view or modify a wide variety of printer and IB-2x settings. KM-NET VIEWER is
available on the provided CD-ROM (Kyocera Mita Software Library or Kyocera Mita Digital Library).
With the IB-22, all IB-21E networking functionality, including TCP/IP, NetWare, AppleTalk, Web based
management, etc., is now available in a wireless network. The IB-22 supports wireless networking as
defined by the 802.11b standard and will interoperate with other devices that support this standard.
This section explains how to connect the IB-22 to your wireless network.
The IB-22 supports the following modes of operation:
Ø Infrastructure: One or more Access Points (also called Base Stations) are used to create a wireless
network and may also be used to connect the wireless network to a wired network.
Ø 802.11 Ad hoc : Direct connection between wireless devices without using an Access Point. This
mode uses the Service Set Identification (SSID). SSID acts as a logical network identifier.
Ø Ad hoc: Direct connection between wireless devices without using an Access Point. This mode
does not use the SSID.
Ø Automatic: Automatically detect one of the modes above. This is the IB-22 default.
Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is a security protocol that is intended to provide wireless data with
security equivalent to data on a standard wired network. WEP uses 64 bit (also called 40 bit) or 128 bit
encryption; both of which are supported by the IB-22.
The IB-22 will automatically detect and connect to an 802.11b wireless network, except when:
Ø The wireless network is using encryption, or
Ø SSID broadcasts are disabled, or
Ø The PC and the IB-22 are not set to the same channel when in Ad hoc mode, or
Ø Multiple distinct wireless networks are accessible (the IB-22 may not connect to the desired
network).
If any of the above are applicable to your network, refer to the IB-22 Manual Configuration section.
If automatic configuration can be used on your network, you only need to confirm that the IB-22 has
made a successful connection.
