Auto Configure detects the devices installed on the printing system if it is
connected over a network. When your computer is connected to the printing
system through a TCP/IP port, the Auto Configure button appears in the
Device Settings tab. Auto Configure updates the Device options list and
preview images to keep the printer driver consistent with the printing system
configuration.
Not all installed devices are detected by using Auto Configure. Before
selecting OK in the Device Settings tab, check the settings to make sure that
they are correct.
Note: The default setting for Windows XP Service Pack 2 is for the Windows
Firewall to be set to On. The setting can be changed to allow communication
between the printing system and your computer. In the Windows Security
Alert dialog box, click Unblock.
