8. Network Settings

Introduction

This machine has a built-in print server as a network interface. When you use the print server, you can
send printing data to the machine from anywhere on the network. TCP/IP is used as the protocol. Make
sure the machine is connected to the network by an Ethernet cable.
The network settings on the machine must be made manually, using the operation panel. For informa-
tion about how to make the settings, refer to "Step 2: Make the Network Settings on the Printer" later
in this chapter.
Also, to perform printing from the machine, the software raster image processor (RIP) packed with the
machine must be installed and set up on the computer you're using. For information about installation
and setup, refer to the documentation for the software RIP.
Important
The examples used in the procedures for making the settings described in this section assume
you are using one computer and one machine. The procedures and setting values described
here may not be suitable for all operating environments.
If the computer you're using is connected to a number of networked devices or to the Internet,
incorrect settings may adversely affect the entire network. For detailed information about the
settings, consult your network administrator.
Also, the addresses used in this section are merely example settings.
