Installation and Setup

Installation and Setup Overview

Before printing, your computer and the printer must be plugged in, turned on, and connected to an active
network. The system administrator must configure the initial settings of the printer before installing the
driver software. The driver software and utilities must be installed on your computer.
For details on configuring the printer network settings, see the System Administrator Guide at
www.xerox.com/office/WC75xxdocs.

Physical Connection

Use a Category 5 or better Ethernet cable to connect the printer to the network. An Ethernet network is
used for one or more computers and supports many printers and systems simultaneously. An Ethernet
connection is typically faster than a USB connection and provides direct access to printer settings using
CentreWare Internet Services.
To connect the printer:
1. Connect the power cord to the printer, and plug the cord into an electrical outlet.
2. Connect one end of a Category 5 or better Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on the printer.
Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the network port.
3. Connect a standard RJ11 cable, No. 26 American Wire Gauge (AWG) or larger, to the printer and to a
functioning telephone line to support Faxing.

Turning the Printer On

This printer has two power switches. The switch located on the top of the printer, beneath the control
panel, controls power only to the electronic components of the printer. The second switch, located behind
the front cover, controls the power into the printer. Turn on both switches to operate the printer. First turn
on the power switch behind the front cover, then turn on the top switch.
