Note
The Access Control Address and the Access Control Mask are used to limit
access to the computer used for printing by denying access to users based on
their IP address. If it is not necessary to limit access, set the Access Control
Mask to "0.0.0.0".
When the Access Control Address matches masked result of the IP address
computer attempting to print, print jobs from that IP address can be accepted
by the Network Interface Board.
For example, if you assign 192.168.15.16 as the Access Control Address to the
Network Interface Board, the combination of the Access Control Mask and
the IP addresses that can print are as follows. The XXX is a variable that
means any number from 1 to 255 is acceptable.
