Note
• NetBIOS name on a WINS server must be configured for the WINS serv-
er.
❒ Supported DHCP servers are Micontext macenu, and then press the
with Windows 2000 Server, Windows Server 2003, and Windows NT
4.0, and the DHCP server included with NetWare and UNIX.
❒ If you do not use the WINS server, reserve the printer's IP address in the
DHCP server so the same IPv4 address is assigned every time.
❒ To use the WINS server, change the WINS server setting to "active" us-
ing the control panel.
❒ Using the WINS server, you can configure the host name via the remote
network printer port.
❒ 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 be-
cause 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 serv-
ers. The printer operates using data from the DHCP server that re-
sponds 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.
You must change this setting to "on" to use AutoNet.
Note
❒ The IP address assigned by the DHCP server is given priority over that select-
ed by AutoNet.
❒ You can confirm the current IPv4 address on the configuration page.
❒ For more information about the configuration page, see p.130 "Interpreting
the configuration page".
❒ When AutoNet is running, the NetBIOS name is not registered on the WINS
server.
❒ 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 10.2.3. or higher.
