Sharp R2.7 manual Adding a New Copier, Copiers New Button Options

Adding a New Copier

To add a new copier, simply click on the New button of the Copiers tab. This brings up the Copier Properties screen that lets you add a copier. If you select a copier that was automatically detected by the Network Scanner Tool, then an IP address appears in the Copier Properties screen. If you wish to add a copier that was not automatically detected, you will have to enter the correct IP address or Host Name for that copier.

Copier Properties Screen

After adding a new copier, click on the OK button so all process settings immediately take effect.

Copiers New Button Options

The following options are available from the Copier Properties screen.

Use IP Address

If you are configuring a copier that was not automatically detected by the Network Scanner Tool, you will need to enter either the IP address of the copier or the host name in the appropriate field. When the IP address is determined either by direct entry or host lookup, the Network Scanner Tool verifies that the IP address is assigned to a Sharp copier.

If your network operates under the Simple Addressing or Regular DHCP policies described in Chapter 2, we recommend ‘Use IP Address’ to identify the copier. IP addresses are available from the PRINT CONFIGURATION PAGE or the Network Administrator.

Use Host Name

If your network operates under the Full or Exception DHCP policy described in Chapter 2, we recommend ‘Use Host Name’ to identify the copier. Host Names for the copiers are available from your Network Administrator.

Once you enter the Host Name, the Network Scanner Tool will then automatically fill in the correct IP address.
