To set up and configure the network:
1. Connect the printer to the network using the recommended hardware and cables.
2. Turn on the printer and the computer.
3. Print the Configuration page and keep it for referencing network settings.
4. Install the driver software on the computer from the Software and Documentation CD. For
information on driver installation, see the section in this chapter for the specific operating
system you are using.
5. Configure the printer's TCP/IP address, which is required to identify the printer on the
network.
• Windows operating systems: Run the Installer on the Software and Documentation CD to
automatically set the printer's IP address if the printer is connected to an established
TCP/IP network. You can also manually set the printer's IP address on the control panel.
• Macintosh systems: Manually set the printer's TCP/IP address on the control panel.
6. Print a Configuration page to verify the new settings.
Note: If the Software and Documentation CD is not available, you can download the latest
