Cautions to Take When Using in a Network

Using DHCP

You can use this printer in a DHCP environment.
• Supported DHCP servers are those which are included with Windows Server 2003/2003
R2/2008/2008 R2.
• DHCP relay-agent is not supported. If you use DHCP relay-agent on a network via ISDN, it will
result in increased line charges. This is because your computer connects to the ISDN line whenever
a packet is transferred from the printer.
• If there is more than one DHCP server, use the same setting for all servers.
The printer operates using data from the DHCP server that responds first.
Using AutoNet
If the printer IPv4 address is not assigned by a DHCP server automatically, a temporary IPv4 address
starting with 169.254, which is not used on the network, can be automatically selected by the printer.
If an AutoNet address is set as the printer's IP address, it changes every time you turn on the printer.
Configure the TCP/IP settings according to your network environment.
You must change this setting to "on" to use AutoNet.
• The IP address assigned by the DHCP server is given priority over that selected by AutoNet.
• You can confirm the current IPv4 address on the configuration page.
• The printer cannot communicate with devices that do not have the AutoNet function. However, this
printer can communicate with Macintosh computers running Mac OS X 10.3 or later.
