If you are in a non-static IP address environment and need to setup a DHCP network protocol, go to the http://developer.apple.com/ networking/bonjour/download/, select the program Bonjour for Windows compatible with your computer's operating system, and install the program. This program will allow you to fix the network parameter automatically. Follow the instruction in the installation window.

Configuring network protocol via the printer

To set up TCP/IP network parameters:

1.Ensure your printer is connected to the network with an RJ-45 Ethernet cable.

2.Ensure you have turned on the printer.

3.Press Menu on the control panel, until you see Network on the bottom line of the display and press OK.

4.Press the left/right arrow until TCP/IP appears and press OK.

5.Press the left/right arrow until Static appears and press OK.

6.Press the left/right arrow until IP Address appears and press OK. Enter a byte between 0 and 255 using the number keypad and press the left/right arrow to move between bytes.

Repeat this to complete the address from the 1st byte to the 4th byte.

7.When you have finished, press OK.

Repeat steps 6 and 7 to configure the other TCP/IP parameters: subnet mask and gateway address.

Contact the network administrator if you are not sure how to configure.

You can also set up the network settings through the network administration programs.

•Embedded Web Service: Web server embedded on your network print server, which allows you to:

-Configure the network parameters necessary for the printer to connect to various network environments.

-Customize printer settings.

•SetIP: Utility program that allows you to select a network interface and manually configure the IP addresses for use with the TCP/IP protocol. See "Using the SetIP program" on page 18.

Using the SetIP program

This program is for the network IP setting using the MAC address which is the hardware serial number of the network printer card or interface. Especially, it helps the network administrator set several network IPs at the same time.

• You can only use SetIP program when your printer is connected to

a network.

•The following procedure is based on Windows XP.

Installing the program
